F-14 Tomcast

21. Flying the F-14 Tomcat Air Show Demo


Listen Later

Sure, you’ve seen an air show -- and the lucky ones have seen a Tomcat demonstration, or demo – but you will be amazed at what it took to train for the performance and what it was like to fly a show in the big fighter! Learn about the importance of crew coordination; guidelines for air shows, including distance from the crowd, altitude; the scary moments; and much more!

We interview a pilot and RIO team, "Shorn" Saccomando and "Ponch" Rivera, who candidly reveal the extreme professionalism and commitment required to succeed in this high-risk mission. They talk about managing the incredible power of the F110 engines in the D-model, dealing with the FAA, and how a pilot and RIO worked together to show off the incredible capabilities of the F-14D. They finish with some of their memorable quotes and explain the story behind each one.
