David MooreHOST
remember what kind of simulator it was?
Stephanie SanfordGUEST
It was F-14 Tomcat.
Stephanie SanfordGUEST
All I know is that what we were supposed to be doing was we were getting ready to go tour an aircraft carrier.
David MooreHOST
Yes.
Karl GrunerGUEST
In the UK, the good news is you could fly anywhere except I think it was mentioned in one of your recent video by the exchange pilot that flew the F-3.
Karl GrunerGUEST
He was surprised when he first flew the F-3 coming from the F-14 that in the UK, basically say, well, don't go inside those little red restricted areas, but other than that, you can fly anywhere.
Karl GrunerGUEST
Well, yeah, you can fly anywhere, but if you can see, because you see and avoid, so you have to be able to avoid other airplane traffic.
Karl GrunerGUEST
And back in the Cold War, there was a lot of airplane traffic potentially.
JuiceboxGUEST
I mean, you can pull up the virtual HUD, but it's not the same thing because it's not exactly what that pilot was seeing.
JuiceboxGUEST
And with the F-14, you have them.
JuiceboxGUEST
You also get the tarps pod with the F-14, which produces these amazing aerial recon photos.
JuiceboxGUEST
And so with the cockpit recorder, what's coming very shortly is it will automatically upload all of that stuff, provided you've enabled this.
JuiceboxGUEST
And it will then sync those into the debrief so that when you pull that trigger, that little picture in picture will show the HUD cam.
Matthew BuckleyHOST
After a pilot or an aviator goes through a mishap, they might have some moral.
Matthew BuckleyHOST
Why did I survive? You know, why didn't they not survive? You know, I had an F-14 buddy, a backseater who had a weapons delivery go wrong in Iraq through no fault of his own and took out 12 innocent Iraqis, three generations of an Iraqi family.
Matthew BuckleyHOST
So that moral injury also hits aviators in addition to the special operations community as well.
Matthew BuckleyHOST
So that that that mind, body and soul.
RobertAUDIENCE
The fellow that was giving the news, all of a sudden, somebody came from the back with a piece of paper, and he gave it to the newscaster, and this is what he said.
RobertAUDIENCE
He said the F-14 shot down the plane over Shanksville.
RobertAUDIENCE
That's the first time I ever heard it.
RobertAUDIENCE
Say that again.
RobertAUDIENCE
He's casting.
RobertAUDIENCE
He was interrupted by somebody that came from the back room with a piece of paper.
RobertAUDIENCE

The plane over Shanksville, Pennsylvania.

TowerHOST
Both are twin engine, multi-role carrier capable aircraft.
TowerHOST
The Super Hornet replaced the F-14 Tomcat in the fleet air defense role.
TowerHOST
The Tomcat has an enormous reputation among aviation enthusiasts, and it earned it.
TowerHOST
But the Super Hornet has been the operational reality for more than two decades now, and it has proven itself across real-world missions at a pace the Tomcat never had to match.
Dean KarayanisHOST
It started closing in on the USS Carl Vincennes.
Dean KarayanisHOST
The Vincennes, at first, our pilots mistook it for an F-14, which would have meant it was an Iranian plane.
Dean KarayanisHOST
Because, you know, America's so evil, we sold them all their hardware before their little coup there by the Islamic radicals.
Dean KarayanisHOST
This was July 1988.
Mark McClearyCORRESPONDENT
A Nigerian freighter with a nuclear bomb that was somewhere in the harbor that they were looking for.
Mark McClearyCORRESPONDENT
There was the bizarre thing of no planes in the air apart from F-14 fighters that were circling New York at that point, no other planes.
Mark McClearyCORRESPONDENT
Lots of rumors, lots of people just saying that, you know, this is only the start of an attack.
Mark McClearyCORRESPONDENT
And then the most bizarre thing, I think it was on the second night that I was there, I was in my hotel.
