Some rainy day footage from December '69 of aircrew on the USS Constellation launching recon and air strikes over South Vietnam and Laos just a month after their return to Yankee Station in the Gulf of Tonkin. Deck life must suck on a cold wind rainy day.๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿ˜Ž

Some badass P-38 action from WWII with a few different clips that includes P-38 gun camera action towards end. The only squadron identified in footage was the 339th Fighter Squadron. Probably my favorite fighter of the war.๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿ˜Ž

Fire and Snow. Footage of the USS Philippine Sea (CV-47) caught in a snowstorm off the Korean coast on 15 Nov '50. Clip also shows deck on fire but I'm not sure if that was related to a Panther crash landing recorded in captains logs on the 14th.๐Ÿซก

Some badass gun battles I ran across deep in the archives of B-24 Gunners and ships fighting off Japanese air attacks. This might be too metal for some of ya'll. You've been warned.๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿ˜Ž

Here is some rare footage with narration out of the archives of the Bell YFM-1 Airacuda. The Airacuda was a heavy fighter built in the 30's with a sleek futuristic look that had high expectations but was plagued with problems, only 12 were ever built. Airacuda! ๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿ˜Ž

Don't see many Northrop P-61 Black Widows in the archives. Here's a few taking off, I believe, in Munich around March of '45. Does the first aircraft have WWII painted on it? Now that's metal. Glad ya'll love this stuff as much as I do.๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿ˜Ž

Some cool upscaled close up shots of Avenger's flying over Iwo Jima in February of 1945. Not sure what the mangled shot is, though. The angles don't look right, almost like it's an aircraft on the deck, but it was in between these other in flight shots.๐Ÿ˜Ž

Some cool shots of of the first carrier launches and recoveries aboard the USS Langley back in 1922, just 103 years ago. Much respect, these dudes were certified nuts.๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿ˜Ž

Some cool extended footage of the Northrop YB-49 flying wing. The original video only had like two good pixels so tried to resurrect the rest. R.I.P. Ozzy ๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿ˜Ž

Probably make some of ya'll Eagles fans mad but thought this clip was cool from 1983 of Tom Landry taking a ride on a B-17. He was a B-17 pilot during WWII. Btw the Redskins one the super bowl that year ( ๐Ÿ˜ฏ ) .๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿ˜Ž

USS Guadalcanal (CVE-60) in 1945 with a few mishaps starting with an F4U coming in a little wonky, to use a technical term, and flipping over, all while spraying fuel. Deck Life.๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿ˜Ž
