This week on Keys To The Jet Podcast, Red dives into one of the eeriest true stories in military aviation history — Ghost 21, the legendary F-100 Super Sabre that disappeared over the Nevada Test Range in 1959… only to keep flying. From radio calls on Guard frequency that shouldn’t exist to phantom radar tracks that vanish mid-flight, this is one spooky story you don’t want to miss.

After the chills fade (maybe), Red switches gears and covers the latest military and aviation news — aircraft developments, global headlines, and the wild stuff happening across the flightline right now.

It’s the perfect mix of history, mystery, and current events, all in true Red style.

👻 Buckle up, keep your headset on, and remember… some pilots never stop flying.

Ever wonder what it’s like wrenching on a helicopter versus a fighter jet? In this episode of Keys To The Jet Podcast, Joey takes us through a day in the life of a flying helicopter mechanic — the noise, the chaos, the teamwork, and the grease that holds it all together. Then Red fires up his own story from the fighter jet flightline — where the speed is insane, the pressure’s on, and the jets scream louder than your crew chief’s morning coffee order. Together they swap stories, crack jokes, and build their dream flightline toolbox setups — because every maintainer knows the real power isn’t in the jet, it’s in the toolbox.

Whether you’ve turned a wrench on a Huey or a Hornet, or just love the smell of JP-8 in the morning, this one’s for you.

Keys To The Jet Podcast – Supersonic Flight: How It Changed America, Part Two – Cold War and the Supersonic Dream

From the fiery skies of Vietnam to the edge of space, Part Two of our Supersonic Flight series dives headfirst into the Cold War — when speed, altitude, and paranoia ruled the world.

Red breaks down the rise of the legendary F-4 Phantom II, the godlike SR-71 Blackbird, and the high-flying dreams of the B-58 Hustler and XB-70 Valkyrie — the kind of aircraft that made Soviet radar operators question their life choices.

We’ll talk about how the SR-71 outran missiles, how the F-4 leaked more fluids than a 1970s muscle car, and how the world flirted with the future through the Concorde and Tu-144 “Concordski.” Supersonic wasn’t just technology — it was national pride, Cold War theater, and pure adrenaline on wings.

So grab your ear protection and a cold one, because this episode is loaded with speed, sound, and straight-up chaos.
