As a Royal Engineer stationed in Germany in the 70s/80s loved hearing the 104 Starfighters ripping along the Wesser...they had a sound of their own...👍👍
Beautiful….The look of this Aircraft is extraordinary….What was it like to fly??? Never had the chance😢. Vielen Dank fuer das video? Addendum: Jesus, love your Bavarian ‘Lederhosen’ at the end!
Für mich war die 104 schon als Kind (Jr.71) der schönste Jet von allen...Danke das sie uns an der kleinen Geschichte haben teilhaben lassen..."Auf die F104G"..🍾👍
I would say He was Royal Canadien Air Force. They had a base in Germany. Nostalgia for me, I was a member 123 JaBog 32 Lechfeld from 1964 -67. We also trained together in Decimomannu AFB Sardinia. in ~1965 I followed with a 10 minute separation still flying F-84Fs a Canadian 2ship 104G flight out of Deci back to Germany . One of their 104s had a catastrophic emergency and forced the pilot to bail out over water north of Alghero/Sardinia. I had heard the emergency call on Guard and decided to search for their pilot. Flying a search pattern I noticed fishing boats heading out except one heading back to shore and on its bow a wet pilot was waving his yellow May West at me . I buzzed the boat rocking my wings went back to Deci and reported my findings to his commander. Their other pilot had continued on to Hahn/ AFB Germany. Decimomannu AFB was a joint Italian, Canadien and German gunnery training base Horrido to Ken Carvosso!
ich find`s tolle, daß Sie diese doch persönlich bezogenen Erinnerungen an Ihren letzten Flug all den Neugierigen als kleines Zeitdokument zur Verfügung stellen. Zeitdoku auch die wohl S-8-Kameraführung und die beim Zoomen dazugehörenden Wackler. Spitze! Ich wage mal ne waghalsige Frage..vielleicht mit ner wagemutigen Antwort: wie wurde auf nem Flug in die USA das Toil.-problem gelöst..?
Weil Englisch nun mal die internationalen Sprache im Flugverkehr ist,und auch Lufthansa sich auf deutschen Flughäfen auf englisch anmelden muß! Und ganz nebenbei: Ken spricht fließend Deutsch!!Kampfschlumpf1
This is golden
Never should of gotten these. Couldn't handle them.
TY for sharing F-104 Viz.
Crikey Ken. Just like a Top Gun scene.

Two aircraft to put the fear of God into you…the 104 and the A10. Beauty and the beast! Tear to my eye to see this beauty retired.
Bellissimo video grazie Luftwaffe proprio come la nostra AM uguale
Is there more such footage with the "Königin"?
Ich frage mich, wie das gedreht wurde, das Ken Zeit hatte, sich in Tracht zu schmeissen. So das es niemand gesehen hat.
HALLO, ich war damals der 1.te Wart, ich werde diesen Trick nicht verraten. Gruß
@@daddycool8132 Eine Magier verrät nicht seine Tricks oder? War wirklich eine witzige idee, das er Tracht trägt.
Fantastic, thanks for this video but at the same time still 💔

Ken Carvosso is an RAF pilot?
Yes he was

Thank you for your story, Winfried.
I go to air cadets and ken the pilot came in so I got to talk to him
So... you could say... this was ..... "the last starfighter" :D XD..only old movie buffs will understand
Der schönste Jet der Welt.....

@@r0tb3rt A “soggy bottom” moment.
For the scene at 10:30 you should change the title of Ken. POW is known as Prisoner of War. Just a kind remark.
+worldbestpilot I think that's the joke, just a bit of typical military humour. ;-)

Good show old chap! Thanks for posting ES.
Warum wird die vorflugbesprechung(briefing) nicht in deutsch durchgeführt?Das ist doch eine deutsche einheit?
Weil Englisch nun mal die internationalen Sprache im Flugverkehr ist,und auch Lufthansa sich auf deutschen Flughäfen auf englisch anmelden muß! Und ganz nebenbei: Ken spricht fließend Deutsch!!Kampfschlumpf1
Und weil Kampfschlumpf1 nie gedient hat.
Good old Times, very nice movie.
Thank you for showing use this nice film.
