Abandoned for 50 Years: The Ultimate F-101 Voodoo Supersonic Jet Restoration

Can a Cold War legend fly again after half a century of neglect? In this episode, we take on our most ambitious project yet: the full restoration of the legendary McDonnell F-101 Voodoo. Left to the elements for over 50 years, this supersonic interceptor was once the backbone of nuclear deterrence. Now, it’s nothing but a rusted shell—but we’re about to change that. Watch as our team strips away decades of corrosion, sources rare vintage parts, and brings the twin-engine "One-O-Wonder" back to its former glory. From the complex cockpit electronics to the massive J57 turbojet engines, witness the grit, grease, and engineering genius required to save a piece of aviation history. In this video, you’ll see: The Discovery: Finding the Voodoo tucked away in a forgotten hangar. The Deep Clean: Removing 50 years of dust, nests, and oxidation. Engineering Challenges: How we fabricated parts that haven't been made since the 1960s. The Reveal: The breathtaking final transformation of this supersonic beast. 🕒 Timestamps: 0:00 - The Forgotten Legend: Finding the F-101 02:45 - Assessing the Damage (50 Years of Decay) 05:20 - The First Wash: Revealing the Silver Skin 10:15 - Engine Restoration: Bringing the J57 Back to Life 18:30 - Cockpit & Avionics Overhaul 25:40 - The Final Paint & Polish 30:00 - The Incredible Final Result 🚀 Support the Channel!
