F-106 Delta Dart: The Ultimate Interceptor That Landed Itself

I learned a lot in this video.

I was a mere baby or toddler when these were "overhead" covering us!

Great vid!
In the late '60s/early '70's the Darts would make sonic passes at the (then) McGuire AFB air shows.
Now people would be called on the carpet for hitting the crowd with a Mach pass.
Ahhh, the good old days.

I remember SOH member and developer "fsafranek" always calling it a very nice American Mirage!

That always made me laugh. That builds camaraderie in our international community here at the SOH.

There was a really good reason why Frank's (Alphasim) B-1B repaints were so accurate.
If we say his name three times, he might show up.

Maybe once will suffice for @fsafranek !

I used see dozens of Delta Darts fly into McClellan AFB, CA in formation for depot maintenance in the early 70's. A truly awesome sight to behold.

Hi Guys. Always nice to see interest in the Dart. And thanks for the comment on my Bone textures.
If anyone is still using FSX and P3D (I know I am) you can get my repaints here: http://www.mirage4fs.com/Alphasim/

See, I TOLD you..

Its just like The Wizard of Oz but instead of clicking your heels together you just say his name as you click the magneto switch and he'll show up.
