Cool shot of a lovely flying machine. As you probably know, the Phantom
is the only A/C used by both the Blue Angels and the Air Force
Thunderbirds. In the mid-1970s, after the Thunderbirds had transitioned
from the Phantom to the T-38 Talon, McDonnell-Douglas made a documentary
about the F-4 titled *Once a Thunderbird*. I managed to get my hands on
it a couple times for classroom use. The air-to-air sequences are
special. If you are ever able to get hold of a copy and view it, you'll
have about 30-40 minutes of pulse quickening.

Being old doesn't seem so old now that I'm old.
