Описание к видео EA-6B Prowler Flight to PCAM "extended rock version"

Our "extended version" features a lot of additional footage of the original Prowler Flight to PCAM video & is set to a rock theme. Acquisitions Director Mark Fajardin Sr. acquired the Prowler for the Pacific Coast Air Museum & set up 3 GoPro cameras in the cockpit. Prowler 158811 is an ICAP II Block 89A + & was accepted by the Navy on January 30, 1974 and assigned to VAQ-137 the Rooks on board the USS Enterprise participating in Operation Frequent Wind, the evacuation of Saigon. She spent from 2000 to 2008 forward deployed to Afghanistan, Turkey, and Atsugi Japan with CVW-5 participating in the Iraq war, Southern Watch, Northern Watch, and the War on Terror. Her last squadron was VAQ-129 the Vikings training Navy, Marine, & Air Force personnel at NAS Whidbey Island, WA.. Prowler 158811 has total flight hours of 11,951, total landings 18,215, & total Cats 2,283 and landed on December 7, 2013 with no gripes by VAQ-131 the Lancers. June 26 thru 28, 2015 saw the Prowler Sunset Celebration held at NAS Whidbey Island culminating in the fly off of the last Navy EA-6B Buno 163890 with the first Prowler pilot seated in back, USN Capt. Fred Wilmot (ret.) to here final home at NAS Pt. Mugu Air Park. I was truly honored to be invited for this historical event with people from 49 states and 9 foreign countries in attendance. The USMC will continue on with four Prowler squadrons retiring one per year until 2019. So long ole girl!
