CVW-11 F-14 Rear Seat Startup and Avionics: An In-Depth Discussion

[IceFire]

Grab your popcorn and settle in for a two hour in depth discussion of the F-14's rear seat avionics.

 

Presented by our very own Spiceman, served in the US Navy as an Avionics Technician and worked extensively on the Tomcat!

Very informative, thanks!

[Spiceman]

Thanks, glad you liked it... when we actually get the Tomcat I’ll do some better ones. It’s hard to just ramble on to some still pictures.

It’s hard to just ramble on to some still pictures.

 

Still very interesting, really! Especially the parts about the IFF/XPDR and the radar antenna.

[Manuel_108]

Agreed. The pictures and stories are a very good primer before you guys hop into the virtual cockpit later on.

[Spiceman]

I edited out a whole section on squadron and deck operations because it was just getting too dang long. Are you guys interested in that sort of thing? I can do a stand-alone video on it...

[Manuel_108]

Stand alone video would be great, I think deck operations is a very interesting topic. Good idea to split the content too.

[Shadoga]

+1 pro separate video discussion for the out-edited content!

[mattgn]

This is great, thanks for your efforts.

Reminds me of working on the line on Tornado F3s on XI Sqn.
