- Royal Air Force hawks flying low level in the Mach Loop with a rare visit from some Red Arrows while visiting RAF Valley. The footage has been shot over the last four years or so and includes some Hawk T1s which are now a rare sight in the Loop.
I am now getting into the habit of including my camera settings on the still shots in the video. For the record the photos here were shot with my canon 1DX2 and my canon 7D2. Lens used is a canon 300mm f2.8 and a 1.4 tele converter was used where photos are 420mm.
The video footage was shot with a Panasonic vx870 and a Panasonic vx990, both 4K. I alternate these two cameras by mounting one onto my DSLR lens and another fixed on a tripod in the hope something will fly through the frame.
With lockdown ongoing its going to be a while before I can upload some new material but I do have plenty of unseen footage in the archive to keep uploading regular.

Is it me, or do these Hawks REALLY fly faster through the loop than ANY other aircraft - so nimbly too! Graceful little buggers, makes you really proud of them!
They are very nimble through the valleys ✈️✈️👌
I think I can say this on behalf of everybody who watches your posts.
Thank you for all the effort you go to.
Just amazing 👍👍👍
Thanks Jim
Appreciate your words👍
Absolutely incredible flyover through the valley on these Hawks 😎🤩
Just staggeringly good images - the stills are incredibly sharp - thanks for sharing.. Very interesting and helpful to have the exposure data too.
Happy you enjoyed and appreciate your viewing. Thank you 👍
The stills are amazing.
Thanks Thomas 👍
My goodness the shooter here is absolutely on top of their game. Superlative shots and beautifully composed. I’m impressed
and more than a bit Jealous!!! Thank you for sharing. Ciao.
Thanks Steve 👍
Even with the current lockdown you are putting together some priceless work of past video! Here in the US there have been many low flyby's in support of emergency medical services, the other day I had two V-22's fly low over my house and a couple weeks ago at work we had both teams, USN Blue Angels & USAF Thunderbirds do a low flyby together.
Even though I see V-22's and H-47 Chinooks everyday, it was a treat to see two V-22's fly low over my house. Thank you for all that you do!
Hawks are very exciting to watch!
Amazing, pure beauty.
Lunch with jet exhaust....what else can you ask for? Boy those pilots are tucked in close to the dash board. Thanks for the noise Dafydd.
Cheers Scott ✈️✈️👍
Objectively speaking military aircraft are little more than tools, with function taking precedence over form, but I'm sure that most viewers would agree that if not beautiful they are often visually exciting.
The Hawk is such an aircraft - a gorgeous thing, irrespective of the colour scheme.
Great footage as always Dafydd.
Thank you Ian 👍
I will always remember when the red arrows flew over my house (about 50-100 feet it seemed) I heard this huge rumbling noise getting louder and as i ran out in the back garden they all shot over, wow! never fails to impress me. They went on to do a flight rehearsal coming up in the next few days.
Sea Skimmer Thats awesome, i live in a region called Twente in The Netherlands wich is a low-flying area for f-16 and such so i see maybe 2 or 3 f-16s going 50 feet over my house every week and believe me they still never fail to dissapoint.
Brilliant as always.
This will be the year I visit the loop, as long as we are allowed out, seeming going abroad isn't gonna happen for a long time to come.
Thanks David.
Hope you get lucky ✈️✈️✈️👍
I stumbled across your channel and I'm absolutely blown away by it. The video, sounds and the photos are stunning. Well done sir.
Thank you. Appreciate your viewing 👍
The Red Arrows have also made appearances here in California from time to time and they're always a hoot to watch! These little jets are just so darned cool anyhow. Fun to watch!
I've felt the speed!!!. I had the need!!!.
Great job, Daf!!!.
Thanks victor 👍
We don't care if it's old we know it's gonna be good so keep them coming 👍👍
It is all amazing. Brilliant. Thank you.
Thanks Martin 👍
YOU get some GREAT shots ..... and these pilots put on a GREAT show............... Thanks Dafydd ! WE have a SHOW here in Oregon Today across our city at 10:00 a.m. , a whole bunch of F15's flyin' low over the Hospitals . Hope you are well and those around you too.
Thank you for making my Friday afternoon!
A pleasure. Appreciate your viewing 👍
Wow awesome these are some great shots of really unique aircraft so cool thanks for sharing this 👍👍🇨🇦
Thanks Dan 👍
Awesome! Outstanding photography,big like 👍
Thank you 👍
Without a doubt, some of the best paint jobs in aviation. Beautiful!
Couldn't agree more!
The Hawk T2 would make a nice ground attack aircraft, I can see it doing the role the Jaguar used to do.
Beautiful shots!
Amazing pics! 👌 Epic shots
Thank you 👍
Stunning footage! Thanks for sharing.
Appreciate your viewing Peter

Wow another great video, loving tne paint jobs on the Hawks too..

Excellent as always.👌
Thanks again!
Yet another amazing Video. I appreciate the effort that goes into editing these. I used to live near Welshpool but now live in Houston. Last July I visited my family and we spent an unforgettable day on the mountains in the Mach Loop. That you for including the camera settings. I tried to take some pictures with a Nikon Z6 and 200-500mm lens but being mirrorless made the panning really difficult due to the lag in updating the viewfinder. Those are incredible still shots, pin point sharp and the speed they come through it's not an easy task.
Nice one mate, looks like every hillside except the exit....just the tonic needed.
Cheers mike. The static camera shot with the three togs panning was taken at exit 👍
You really like what you do . Vídeo and photo edits that delight ; Aircraft models that full eyes !!! You saved my day ... 😍
Never disappointing. Love your work Mr. Phillips!
Thank you
Appreciated 👍
Nice touch catching the Reds go through. Really like the still at the end over the farm
Fantastic videos and brilliant close-ups
Thank you
interesting paint schemes on those hawks. Your shots bring out the details of the aircrafts that are in action in a splendid way ! Thouroughly loved this one also.
Thank you Michael 👍
Stunning shots there Dafydd, the black Hawks are quite something aren't they.
Thanks mark.
They certainly are ✈️👍
@Mark Jempson
They are beautiful - the sleek, uncluttered, gently curving lines remind me of 50's Grand Prix cars .
@@ianmacfarlane1241 yes indeed!
Superb as always. Thanks so much for sharing this!
Thank you 👍
mesmerizing...
Another stunning example of your brilliant work Dafydd, I'm totally in awe of your talent.👏👏 Thanks for continuing to post new material in these uncertain times. Hopefully I will be stood on the hill soon trying to get some nice clear shots myself 👍🤞
Stay safe 👍🌈
Thank you Andy. Stay safe also 👍
Brilliant as always
Thanks stu 👍

The Hawks always seem to hustle along , for a subsonic aircraft !! Wales UK.
VERY NICE, THANK YOU
Thank you too!
Fantastic 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
So damn cool .
Cheers Daf. 👌👌🍺🍺
I love the Hawk but they didn't half turn a graceful swan into an ugly duckling with the later version...
Great pics, thanks for the video!
Zoooommmm...
Oohhooo...
Anddd Bommmm... 😲✈️🛩
Beautiful Deadly Fighter's.. 😁😀😊
awesome!
Awesome well done
Thank you
Another amazing video as always, and the photographs are phenomenal.
Thanks for adding your gear/settings info in the description and on photos..
That's killer for all of us with curious/inquisitive minds, and much appreciated.
Question: Are you using certain auto focusing options? Or manually focusing?
[I almost always manually focus, but my Sony A99ii & A77iis have great af options too]
Both methods obviously have their own pros / cons, that's why I was wondering..
Thanks again!
😊👍
Sam -
Excelent work.What mode did you use (Appertur/Shutter priority) for the photos?
Muito legal filma um desses aviões. Very good. Amazing.
Very cool as always!! I noticed that the back seats are sometimes unoccupied - next time, call me!
Thank you.
Would love to get my name on the list ✈️😎👍
Solid
The ferraris of the sky!!!
Salut DAFYDD,
WHAOUU Thank you DAFYDD👍❤
Thank you for all👍👍🇪🇦👋
Gracias 👍
Awesome as always. What lens?
Thank you.
Canon 300mm f2.8
@@DafyddPhillips Do you ever use a 70-200 in the loop?
Do you sell your stills and if so how do I get a hold of you. I see a lot of great stills in your videos I would love to have.
They should name it BOOH
Bat Out Of Hell 👍
Dafydd, have you ever hiked up that mountain with no results?
Many times and more often these days. All part of the fun 🤢😁
Dafydd Phillips
Well you have our gratitude. Thanks
That must have been a shock or are they there often?
Probably the more common jet to be seen in the hills ✈️✈️
👀👀😍😍😍
Always hurts my feelings to see a rear seat empty... 😭
Looks faster than the f35
It’s pretty nimble through the valleys
mi piaceva fare il pilota
die HAWKS blijven vet hoor, tering zeg, zulk vlammen
Much rather see info on the aircraft.
For most that view these... shutter speed is meaningless compared to AIRSPEED.
