PilotPhotog Podcast

Join us today for an enthralling journey with Steve Dixon, author of 'Keeping the Peace Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 251 during the Cold War, 1946 to 1991' and once a squadron member himself. Steve takes us soaring through the annals of the Squadron, illuminating its rich history and global deployments with anecdotes from his time with the Squadron during the Cold War. You'll get an up-close look at the array of aircraft they flew, from Wildcats and Corsairs to the speedy F-4 Phantom and the advanced F/A-18 Hornet. His accounts, laden with fascinating facts about the Squadron from its activation in 1941 to its deactivation in 2020, echo the Squadron's motto, "Semper Fidelis".

We then navigate through riveting accounts of the F4 intercepting the T95, and the Squadron's transition to the F-18 Hornet. Steve also offers a window into his time stationed at Yeh-chan, South Korea, and his subsequent career designing conflict simulation games, that's bound to keep you hooked. The episode concludes with a hands-on discussion about Legion War Games' Skyhawk game, touching upon the quality of the materials used and the gaming experience. Make sure to check out the unboxing video on our YouTube channel and, as always, thank you for joining us on the Pilot Photon Podcast!

Prepare to be electrified by the cutting-edge world of military aviation, where the F-35 Lightning faces a unique stumbling block: its engine. We're cracking open the complexities of the Pratt Whitney F-135's cooling struggle, and how this challenge could spark an engine competition between industry titans. Strap in for a heady exploration of jet engines, their role in cooling fighter jets, and the F-35's pressing need for enhanced systems.

We're not stopping at jet engines, though. You'll also get a glimpse into the world of block upgrades for the F-35, the potential game-changing ECU and PTMS upgrades from Pratt Whitney, and an innovative cooling system from Collin's Aerospace. We'll also navigate the unchartered territories of the Adaptive Engine Transition Program (AETP) and the conundrum of maintaining two different engine designs. Warning: things might get a little heated as we dive into the future of the F-35 and the rapidly evolving landscape of military aviation.

What do the US Navy's current frontline fighter, the F/A-18 Super Hornet, and the F4F Wildcat of World War II have in common? How does the Super Hornet hold up as a fourth-generation fighter with limited range? Join us as we unravel these mysteries, explore the unique challenges faced by the Super Hornet, including its impending end of production in 2025, and discuss the Navy's Life Extension Program that aims to upgrade the Super Hornet to the Block 3 standard and extend its service life.

Have you ever wondered what might have been if the proposed ST21 project had come to fruition and the F14 Tomcat was updated with modern technology? Imagine the possibilities with Leading Edge Extensions, improved control surfaces, and thrust vectoring GE F110 engines that could have enhanced the Tomcat's takeoff capabilities, reduced landing speeds, and improved its high alpha performance. Let's dive into the ST21 project, reflect on its potential impact, and compare it to the F/A-18 Super Hornet, which continues to serve as the US Navy's frontline fighter.

The North American X-15 was an experimental Air Force and NASA Hypersonic Rocket powered aircraft that was used to investigate materials, aerodynamic design, and control systems associated with high altitude boost and reentry.  Launched from an NB-52 mothership the X-15 would engage its rocket motor and perform what was then termed a space leap: leave the atmosphere, enter the fringes of outer space and perform a re-entry. Over 50 years later, the X-15 still holds the speed record as the fastest man powered aircraft: Mach 6.72

The F-107 Ultra Sabre was also known as the "maneater" given its unusual location of the air intakes above the canopy.  The aircraft was North American Aviation's entry into the tactical fighter bomber competition of the mid 1950's that lost out to Republic's F-105 Thunderchief.  In this video we will explore the advanced (for its time) features of the F-107 and why it proved to be the Last Sabre.
