A couple of night ago the History Channel aired a program about the
F-14. Also, the program stated that the Shah of Iran ordered a fly-off
between the F-14 and the F-15 in order to decide which one he was
gonna buy. But when the narrator was talking about the Eagle, they
showed footage of what was clearly an F-5.
And what's up with the F-5 footage? Did the US offer
the Shah F-5s or F-15s?

While on the whole History channel is worth it, they do make some real
screwups, the film editors appear to grab ANY footage that looks good and

put it in , hoping that no-one notices. and with that, its ruins their
creditablity.
On another thought..
When they came to KY to film the Glacier Girl first flight. they messed
with the
film. they had LOTS of good footage, and cut it to pieces. There was a
camera
crew on the ground and another in the air in a camera plane. very little
of it
made the airing. They did the Hollywood edit routine.. shame too...
