| Tomcat first flight tribute video |
A tribute video to the Tomcat, which will be retired from the US air force in September this year. Highlights include: footage of the first flight (December 21 1970), the first hydraulic failure (December 30, 1970), the first ejection (December 30 1970) and the first crash landing (December 30 1970). It seems December 30 was a bad day to be flying.
