If you've never seen these fly upclose in person, you owe it to yourself to go to an airshow. The ground shakes and everything. It's one of the most amazing things I've ever seen in person. It just gives you the chills in such a good way.
Are we still allowed such pleasures?
Airshows with fighter jets flying are a magical experience. You can feel the power in your bones.
Went to Farnborough years ago. Was absolutely amazing and yeah, the level of noise these machines generate is incredible.
I merely came here to say it’s beautiful to watch the birds in action when you’re on the ground, but now I’m all hung up on comments. Still beautiful, poetry in motion, one might say. But when you’re a poor sob USA 11B & that’s what shows up? Well, hell, you’re bailed out!
Nitro funny cars are fun... But the blue angels will mess your shit up... Just wait for it.
you photographers guys should share the photos with the pilots directly, like on shared Google photos albums. I'm sure they'd love to see them, it's an ultra premium quality photography right there.
Adi Sharoni thanks adi. We get the occasional request from pilots which is pretty cool ✈️✈️👍
Thanks for watching
@@DafyddPhillips that's cool! great work, highly professional. thank you
Good idea
Keep up the great work guys👍🏿
They do share them with the pilots.
I will never forget me, my dad and my brother seeing 2 jets go through the same spot in Wales. The sound and sight of those machines is mind blowing
I live near a military base. We see F16s every single day for periods of weeks on end. Some fly very low (maybe 50m) over the fields here. Cool for people who visit, but gets very old very quick. Especially if they break the sound barrier ... even though they are not supposed to. KABOOM.
Where i Wales can i see that? I seem to recall there is a spot where they usually do that
1:03 is one of the sickest photograph's of the f-15 that I've EVER seen!! Kudos!!
Thanks Ricardo 😎👍
@@DafyddPhillips no no... THANK YOU
photograph’s huh? 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Yeah is this photo available anywhere in a larger format?
@@DafyddPhillips 👍 doesn’t get any better than that.
6:45 The C-130 is America's flying pickup truck, complete with kids in the back.
Probably a Navy C130 driving around some drunk Marines.
@@bornfree2237 lmao even then, jesus FUCK dude... I would legit give my left nut for that ride through mach loop
Are we nearly there yet, dad?
Thow the gun rack up its a ac-130
Best C130 Hercules puff the magic dragon.
I flew in the USAF for 24 years, and I'm transported to that time when I was around 10 years old at my first airshow...it's still a thrill to this day. Fucking awesome. Thank you!
What did you fly
@@sneakymilkman4203 B52G, KC135A, KC10A, as a Gunner/Boom Operator.
Thanks fellow vet for your service! I was an Army Medic, but every time I saw and still see these jets I get a great sense of pride!
Thank you for your service sir!
@@campcoldone4072 Absolutely my pleasure.
A squadron of FA18 Hornets flew over the CBD of Melbourne in the lead-up to the F1 Grand Prix a few years ago and the sound that echoed and boomed through the buildings literally shook everything. People who were not expecting it hid and ran to cover. Babies cried and women screamed. It was quite amazing. I remember my heart was racing from an adrenaline surge.
if you think the f 18 was lowd you should heard those f 14s that you to be in service an f 18 is like a kitten and when the f 14 pulls up its like the deval came out to play
@@wolfpack7340 Nothing like the Tomcat.
I know the feeling...
I lived across the street from Tinker AFB in oklahoma and they have a squadron of B1 Lancers, B52's and F-16s, they always do touch and go's through out the day.
However the B1 Lancer is the loudest jet I've ever heard.. it pretty neat to see
Fighter jets are scary in general. I love em, but imagine being on the wrong end of these things. NO THANK YOU.
I get fly overs about once a month where I live thanks to Air Force Reserves taking out their birds. Mainly A10s but I've seen some F16s but I don't know for sure we have them stationed here. We also have bombers and stratotankers.
When I was a kid, a group of A-10c's flew over our school so low, they titled their wings when we waved. About 10 seconds later, some more flew by so fast it shook us from the inside. It was amazing. I feel lucky I get to see this stuff.
I have watched the skies here all my life. I also have seen a group of UFO's once. No idea wtf it was, but it was 8 total lights, all green, in 2 square formations, 3 bright green lights and one dim, they moved from southern horizon to northern horizon so fast it made no sense.
I remember that, my underpants went full Engadine
Incredible , they just look so chilled whilst gliding through the air!
Loh. Memang Indonesia dari dulu ga punya musuh atas nama nation.
Amerika dan Indonesia bersahabat puluhan tahun.

Cara kalian merangkum data
Just love the fact USAF , RAF are in Uk keeping us safe , the cream of the free world trained and ready to fly into combat for us , god bless those boys
@palerider957 Well, the Brits appreciate the support here in the UK.
@palerider957 Why? It's a normal deployment.
palerider957 that would be foolish. Forward deployment is required... i
@palerider957🤔? They asked to be here.
If by us you exclude Serbs you're right... for the moment
The Strike Eagle is one of the most beautiful aircraft ever built
Most definitely ✈️🇺🇸👌
Amen brother, a timeless design.
SOCOMreviews no that is the F22 Raptor
@@322_smokey-aviation don't troll.
F-16 is the most beautiful fighter jet ever built.
My father was a navigator flying F4 Phantoms in the 1970s. These are totally bad ass jets!!
Absolutely stunning photography and video sir! I'm an Aviation geek and could watch your work all day. I'm an aircraft mechanic for Boeing Defense, Space and Security working on the H-47 Chinook and V-22 Osprey. I worked on all the new UK MK6 Chinooks and got to fly on UK Mk6 N713UK in October 2015 before delivery. Thanks for sharing your work with us!
Thank you, Happy you enjoyed. Keep up the great work ✈️🔧🔧✈️
👍
That was awesome. Thank you for the awesome shots and clips, I could watch and listen to that all day
Imagine being a clueless tourist driving down that road and then seeing a F15 come bearing down on you.
😂👍
That would be funny as hell and also awsome
Probably assume the local police are Really keen on speeders.
This happened to me......!!! I now truly know what “i nearly shit my pants” means... perils of living in North Wales. Not that I really mind..... fast jets are awesome!
My family and I were driving from Vegas to San Fran via Death Valley (we're Floridians... Flatland). Somewhere climbing up out of the valley, on a climbing obstructed left bend, got the shit scared out of us by two of them banking right from the other side of the bend into the valley below to our right!! Supremely awesome, but bad timing!!
I must have inherited my father's passion for speed. He didn't get to see past the F14's but he loved them all and was a pilot in WWII and flew P51 Mustangs.
much respect to your father. My dad was a crew chief with a P-47 squadron (412th FS). I miss him, and that generation
Legend
@stephen turner lots of people care jackass but nobody cares about your useless ass
I have a tear in my eyes EVERY time I see these guys IM SO PROUD OF THEM AND ALL WHO SUPPORT THEM AND OUR ALLIES GOD BLESS TO YOU ALL THANKS! JOE P.S. ANS ESPECIALLY YOU DAVYD FOR BRINGING THESE TO US!
Thanks Joseph.
Sick stills of the F-15. And awesome footage of the 2 C-130's together.
OMG, the still photos' are AMAZING! I'd love to go there for a couple of days'!
If you have never been to an airshow, i highly recommend it.
I will always remember my first airshow. Always.
At one point during the show, the announcer asked everybody to look to the left. The American team was coming. So we all looked to the left. You could see 3 jets closing by. Like really far away. We just kept looking.
But...
All of the sudden a jet passed from the RIGHT at high speed breaking the sound barrier above us. Everyone was surprised. The boom followed a second later and everyone went crazy.
I was young. It's strange seeing a jet pass at very high speed without any sound. There i found out about speed of sound and stuff. Really cool experience i'll remember forever.
My wife and I were driving south on the Scottish Borders area in a low flying training area. Sun roof open, windows open, sunny day, when a Tornado passed overhead about 30-50m (guesstimate), our world stopped , I missed a 90 deg bend, drove straight on and pulled over, probably in shock. I’m not complaining, but confirm that these pilots are very skilled at low flying. Amazing !
Great video, one of the best I’ve seen 👍🏻 keep up the good work
Amazing footage! I love watching and hearing the jets go over.
I'm so jealous not only of the pilots but the film crew! So amazing to see this in person
The quality of this video is amazing! Great job recording and putting this together!
Thank you.
I can never get bored looking at F14s, F15s. Beautiful planes
I have watched so many of these and that F15E at 1:39 is the first jet I've seen get aggressive! 🤘Love it.

He really cranked it in and said, "right , physics over to you to get me round this bit"
"Driver"?... OK yea that's believable as hell.
I’ve heard driver & rear before
Glad I got to spend my Air Force career working on the mighty Eagle. The F15 is a beast!
My father was Navy, took us to the Cleveland Air Show every year. Loved it! This is beyond awesome! I need to experience this !!!
This might be the single best Air Force spotting video in the history of CZcams.
So where exactly is the Mach Loop... how do you get there?
Love to know. Looks amazing.
@@simonpilk its in Wales in the UK mate 👍
@@makeasylumsgreatagain864 indeed it is as coming from Shrewsbury and being born in the Rhondda I did sort of know that part. It was EXACTLY where that I was querying as to how it is accessed.
Just when I thought aircraft footage couldn’t get any better, you’ve upped the bar! Just superb videography as well as the still shots. Loved how you captured the breathtaking shots of these gorgeous birds manipulating the atmosphere. Simply fascinating! I recently had my own “Mach Loop” experience outside of the small town of Skyline, Al. It’s a small town 12 miles outside of Scottsboro, Al. that sits at almost 1600 feet of elevation. As I was descending the mountain, I got to the place that overlooks a beautiful valley well down below that is dotted with farmhouses and fields. All of a sudden, a C 130 flies right over the road heading over the valley and was soon followed by another. I don’t know if they dropped any farther in altitude as I lost sight of them(I was in a box truck paying attention to the road unless I became airborne without wings), but nonetheless was a beautiful experience! Thank you much for posting this absolutely breathtaking video.
Thank you Gray 👍
Fantastic! 🇺🇸Amazing how the jets blend in with the mountains until they’re right on you!
F-15...47 years old and still one beautiful and capable fighter
If it ain't broke, don't fix it!
Wow! Nice job, those pictures are stunning!
Those pictures are gorgeous. Thanks for the upload!
Magnificent footage and stills. Seeing those C130's heading over the lake brought an image of how The Dambusters raid may have appeared.
I was stationed at RAF Lakenheath back when we flew F-111's Loved England. This was awesome to see. Thanks
F-15E my fav fighter jet of all time.
Love the two guys sitting in the open ramp at the back of the Hercules. What a ride that must be.
Great footage and stills. Thanks for sharing.
Amazing footage as always, brother! Made extra immersive with F16s and 35s flying in tandem outside the house this morning. =) The ultimate surround sound!
I live here in North Wales and see these aircraft and others all the time(RAF valley only 35 miles away) im very lucky.
Hi sir I'm Pilipino and I love americns can you take me to your place sir
I sat in one before and messed around saying what does this big red button do, the pilot laughed and was like nothing special. It was something silly but was the only red button inside so I was disappointed
Totally misread 2 msgs n thought u said north Korea! Lmao was gonna say f no u havent seen seen these... also how u on internet? Fackn good english too hahah

One time I saw a picture of a fighter banking at the Mach Loop (like at 1:00) but the guy in the back seat had a sign saying "I'm with stupid"
I don't think I've ever laughed harder and I doubt I ever will
Here you go

Great video! My personal most thrilling experience was being able to sit in a F-16 at Wright-Patterson when I was younger. I can't imagine the fun of flying one.
Love the vapour on the strike eagles 😵❤️
Who wants to watch the telly when you can watch this all day long? I know where I’d be? Sat on the hill.
Or you can fly one yourself in DCS ( Digital Combat Simulator ) Available to download for free.
I would build a house on that hillside if i could. Priceless 👌
that's exactly what I done when I was living in Eilat Israe,l get into the car drive a few miles into mountains and watched EDF fighter pilots train.... fuckingawesome.
@@Strange_Man1911 You won't be getting much for free in it though :) But if you pay for the right module, that's the way to go.
Fresh air, a Nice cuppa, bacon n egg sangas and awesome aircraft porn right in front of yer Mk1 eyeballs..mos deff beats sittin on the couch thumb tappin the remote fruitlessly tryin ta find somethin decent to watch other than yet another bloody cooking or game show😨😠😬😩..
I'd be in my happy aircraft engineering place..Aaaaaaaah😏💙💜💙✌..
(/-\)..
I'm glad they are on our side!!
Amazing videos. Thank you for the hard work and time you put into these cool vids... Thank you again. Kurt
Thanks Kurt. Appreciate you watching them and reaching out 👍
Thanks for sharing, especially the bad ass pictures. I'm sure it never gets old
Hard! Best quality video. Top shelf thanks Dafydd. We really appreciate the effort to get this to us. Time, expenses, the climb. 👍✈☕
Thanks mike. Appreciate the great comment 👍
I really appreciate the work you put in to get this great footage!
Thank you sir.
Thank you for watching 👍
Your photographers guys are absolutely amazing thank you for sharing the photos with the pilots directly, i’t an ultra premium quality photography right there thank you guys very much indeed.
I just want to say that it was a sublime pleasure teaching those pilots all they know.
Another great video and amazing stills. Love them shock collars of first 2 F-15's
Somehow topped yourself.
These stills are absolutely stunning.
Thank you
Spent endless years walking those hills.to see something like that is fantastic 👍
That is definitely on my bucket list of things to do. Like being at an airshow but at their level or above to watch the show. Must be an awesome experience in person!
Our local airshow is held at the coast so when thy do a low pass you are looking down at them, and to have a Harrier come towards you at eye level, hover, curtsey then reverse away was fantastic.
What a gorgeous landscape, and yes the shoots of the aircraft are awesome!
That’s one of several sounds of freedom and it never gets old!
Lew Rodd- Your comment almost has a cynical tone. Where I’m from in the South we believe that freedom is worth any price no matter what! We fought hard to get it and we fight even harder to keep it. I’m headed out to the back yard now to grill steaks, drink a rum & coke, and fire some freedom downrange! The reason is, because I can... 😳
@@mclark2330 french fought even harder
Nowhere to be seen on 9/11
@Lew Rodd suffering from a shitty government and a terrible left PC culture trying to take it away. Thankfully, the true American spirit will never be put down. We will prevail.
@Lew Rodd Lol Russia didn’t hack shit. You guys need to let the russia thing go. This is all Soros/China funded. Shit is happening because of our “own” people
My father took me to an air show in Canberra ACT AUSTRALIA, ,IN 70.S FIII CAME PAST OVER THE SOUD BARRIER the best day of my life at 11 yrs old the noise was fenominaal I had chills up my back ,absolutely deafining ,I remember it like yesterday,
I know the F-22 is out of this world, but the F-15 is still my favorite. It is just a classic, handsome Cold War icon. Fantastic images you captured, by the way!
Thank you
When you think that the thumbnail is click bait and then you watch the video and it turns out to be even BETTER than the action on the thumbnail!!!
Very rare! Enjoy.

Yas Amazing !
Amazing work. Love how you show footage and then a still from the footage. Keep up the awesome content 👍🏻
Thanks Thomas 👍
More than awesome... far more! Super! Thanks a lot!
I grew up.in Mildenhall so seeing these aircraft was part of life but I never get bored of watching them. Thanks for the show
Must of been great times Sean.
Thanks for watching
Great photo of the 2 guys sitting on the ramp of the C130, what a ride that must've been...
Brian J. Schmidt They had to use a C130, it’s one of the few aircraft in the USAF inventory that’s powerful enough to cart around the huge f@cking testicles those two yank aircrew had! Talk about guts!
Nothing like damp air to get drawn to the core of the action. Those opening Eagle stills can't get any better. The flight of the Osprey the missing cherry on top of the cake. The open rear ramp of the Herk claiming its own starring role in the parade. Beautiful and exciting can't describe enough the unending show going on in the vid!!!.
Thank you again victor. Always appreciate your comments 👌✈️
@@DafyddPhillips keep up the amazing photo job!!!!.
Those guys on the Herc ramp has checked the shoelaces more than one time before parking there! ;)
The video footage got me here, but the still shots keep me over this AO. Freaking brilliant. And that me + my best chums have direct connections to them (one way or the other: initial delivery to the area or top cover, once we were established) is most appreciated.
Sincerely,
Army 11B
Watching this makes me feel like I’m 5 or 6 again, at my first air show, with that feeling in the pit of my gut that I’d do just about anything to fly these planes. (Back then, the F-16 was everyone’s fantasy plane, and I was no exception. The F-16 was like the little Aston Martins James Bond would drive in the first couple films.)
Mine was always the f-111
Excellent footage and pics as usual!👏👏
I think the vids where you have the motion of aircraft hurtling through the Loop and then some actual photographs of the self same aircraft as captured on camera are the best. The photographs are simply stunning - incredible job Dafydd, much enjoyed.
Thank you. Appreciate the great comment 😎👍
Yep the stills are amazing 'some times you can see the pilot looking at you guys absolutely awesome especially banked towards you ,it would be great if they gave the horns sign as they fly past 😏
494fs, I used to work on these :), it's great seeing them again. Not just f-15's but these exact tail numbers
Wow, great video. You are a great photographer, and the pilots are amazing.
We were up the loop 2 weeks ago with the kids, try get up there at least once a year.
Great footage you captured, some of the best ive seen. :)
I'd like to take the kids up my lad is obsessed with planes. How do you find out when they will be flying?
@@KTMSparky www.gov.uk/government/publications/operational-low-flying-training-timetable
Also, Google 'Mach Loop' for more information, viewing locations, etc.
Some of my ancestors are from Wales and this makes me want to come visit even more. Such beautiful landscape and beautiful pictures of the aircraft! Thanks for posting!
Thanks for watching James.
🏴👍
That countryside is incredible
the coolest thing is to go see an air show during the rain!! seeing the jets flying trough the rain is fooking cool.
Wow!! Some of the best Mach Loop shots I've seen!! Great work!
Thanks Jason 👍
Must have been 20 years ago my family was driving through the English countryside towards the Lake District in a camper-van and suddenly a Tornado GR-1 screamed past at about 50 ft! There and gone in like 2 seconds. We must have driven through the Mach Loop without even knowing about it. One of the coolest experiences of my life :D
Mach Loop is in Wales, so you didn't drive thru the loop.
The Lake District is another, very popular low level flight training area, many times you’re walking in the hills and a couple of fighters pop up over a mountain or through a pass and then disappear in seconds.
Years ago they used to fly low all over, but they aren't allowed to do that anymore. People started complaining about the house being shook by low flying jets
Adding to my bucket list RIGHT NOW!
I miss living in Norfolk, When Coltishall was open the Jags and the Lakenheath F15's would practice fighting over the coast and listening to them on my UHF was bloody brilliant. Watching it on a sunny day and hearing that roar, It was heaven on earth.
You can never go wrong with an F-15E Strike Eagle! Super sharp & crisp pics, I almost cut my eyes on them! :-D
Thank you 👍
Fantastic film & phots !! Well done.
Awesome, especially with that condensation over the wings! :-)
those blokes chillin in the back of the C130 have the best seat
Great office to work in ✈️😎
You captured some really beautiful shots. Thank you for sharing
Thanks Joshua 😎
That fully ingulfed vapor pic was awesome
nearly 50 years after its first flight, the F-15 is still a startling beauty.
Those vertical stabs make my stab vertical.
f-15 is still my fav looks better than f22 imo
Can't believe it's been 50 years. You would never imagine just by looking at it.
Your STILLS are PHENOMINAL!!!!!!! Took my breath away, would love that for a poster or ten.
Thank you 😎👍
Brilliant! love the guys hanging out the back of the Hercules...nice work if you can get it!
.....take my Breath away....absolut fabulous Photos 🎩🎩🎩🤯🤯🤯🤩👍🏻
Man, this place is heaven for spotters.
So sick thank you for doing what you're doing

Thank you.
Always fun to watch the Mach 👍🏻🇺🇲
Never knew the F-15 had stealth capability...disguises itself as a cloud...Forget the new stuff, that bird is all balls!
💨💨👌
Can't believe the chemtrailer clowns haven't jumped on this exposure. Damn, video of the military caught in the act.
What is that actually?
@Billy Hill due to the high angle of attack, the airpressure on top of the plane gets extremely low, so that it is unable to hold the moisture, wich condensates into the white cloud and vaporises once it is in higher pressure air, wich is able to hold it.
@Billy Hill LMFAO! Don't you know that on a flatard earth paper airplanes can go Mach 3? That area in the UK has been known for centuries to be riddled with openings to inner earth. There's a whole huge population of upside down people living on the other side of the flatard earth. These F-15 flights are spraying a secret sleepy drug to make it easier for the guys going in to get 'em and bring 'em back. Those upside down people are responsible for kidnapping thousands of children in that area. They have hidden secret trailer parks underneath where they believe the children are being treated poorly. This should get 'em back.
"smoke me a kipper. I'll be back in time for breakfast."
now what we need is some vid of the beasts fighting space aliens in this same valley!
@ 1:02 & on, Glorious! 👍👍 Many thanx. 1st rate stuff!
