Someone needs to teach this guy how to slow a jet down and use the throttle to control rate of descent....
The flying site (Chatfield State Park near Denver) is a mile high - the laws of physics come to play big time: The air is thin and lots of speed is needed to generate lift. It gets even more of a challenge on a hot summer day - the video was shot in March. The F-4 is a draggy jet under the best of conditions.
