    A few years ago me and my mate (we were both nearly 60 were taking a break on a ridge overlooking a Welsh valley on a long motorbike trail ride. We were eating our sandwiches when we saw a couple of fighter jets coming along the valley towards us. That were level with us and about 50 metres away, the lead pilot saw us and gave us a friendly wave. They were so close, not going that fast really. So there was me and my mate enjoying a cross country trail ride and here was a young man in his fighter jet, all of us enjoying ourselves, sharing this planet. How cool was that?

      @@SHR2002 That is one part of it, yes! But mostly it's the fact that in such a fast machine they may only have 1 or 2 seconds to react to a problem before something bad happens. Since they have to carefully balance speed, power, bank angle, angle of attack (nose up and down) on all their instruments they have to constantly check all of these.
      A lot of accidents happen when the pilot stops actively checking all their instruments and by the time they realise something is wrong it's too late. Vocalising it all helps maintain discipline.

I turned my head to look, just in time to see his wingman fly through the cutting, on his side, on the turn, about 20 feet below me and about 40 feet off the road surface. I looked down into his cockpit. I could see the water vapour whizzing round in his wing-tip votices, and hear the whhh-whhh-whhh sound they made. A wonderful and unforgettable experience!

    The calmness and matter-of-factness of his commentary in such an adrenaline rich environment is amazing. Years ago, I worked at an FBO that had a contract to fly over a series of LNG pipelines in the region. I would fly right seat with a former USN Hornet driver in a C182T and let me tell you, we would get WAY down in the dirt to see any potential issues. When we did, it was my job to hang out the door and photograph questionable sections. Since Jerry was kind enough to bank over at about 40 degrees (at a couple hundred feet AGL) so I could get good, clear shots, my adrenaline level wouldn't permit me to speak quite as calmly as this pilot.

    Flew F111’s in 1980’s in England, so this was all very familiar. From Midlands typical sortie was North past Isle of Man, let down low level & up one of the Locks, thru the Highlands heading to a range for some fixed target practice. Our practice low levels were done at 480 kts - 200’ agl hand flown with 500’ considered too high. While fun & good for the video, “over-banking” was to be avoided if possible due to wing flash & the danger of being spotted from above. Instead we practiced ridge crossings using negative G’s applied well BEFORE the crest. Lastly, all that added background “jet noise” is not what one would hear in any cockpit, so rather annoying to someone who’s actually been there.

      I was up in Snowdonia camping, and the jets made a pretty cool sight when you're high on the valley wall eating your lunch. They were actually flying lower than us.
      That is, until a news helicopter floated into the valley around the corner. A Hawk trainer came round the mountain, saw the helicopter and went full vertical to avoid it. Kind of exciting from where we were sitting, but probably more exciting for the pilots. Much underwear was changed that afternoon I expect.

Honestly they didn't come THAT close to hitting, but within about 500m, which is way too close as the speeds they were going. And yes, I'm pretty sure they didn't get any authorisation to fly there, as it's a well-known spot for low flying jets.

      ***** Aviation law. Its a very serious set of rules and protocol that exists entirely so shit like this does not happen. Whether its well known or not is irrelevant you don't fly in airspace that you don't know about period. It certainly wouldn't be for the news or any commercial venture because they would be using commercial pilots. Even private licence the first quarter and probably most important part of the program is aviation law. Its very hard to conceive anyone could do this especially in military fly zones that ignore all altitude separations. Whoever that special unit was will never fly again i can tell you that much.

I loved how the sound is always slightly behind them, occasionally you would spot them coming in the distance, totally silent. But usually you only really hear them once they've gone past you, if you look to where the sound is they're already gone, you have to look ahead to spot the plane. Pretty cool to find out how fast they actually go, around 500mph, AWESOME! Probably the best job on earth.

    I love this film. I grew up in a small village a couple of miles away from one of the powerstations along the river Trent in Nth Notts. Aircraft from countries around the world would fly so low over our houses that one day they shook the old cast iron guttering from the roof of our barn. We would see Tornados of every type from countries around the world, and multitudes of other visiting Airforces aircraft, their pilots easily visible to us as we played in the fields, often waving at us. We were some of the first people in the country to see the A10 flying at 250ft or less. Then I joined the RAF and got up close and personal with some of the aircraft I used to watch as a youngster and fly on a couple of types of troop transport fixed wing. The best out of the lot though was flying on most of the rotary wing aircraft in service with the Navy, Army and the RAF at nape of the earth in Northern Ireland, the feeling of hooning around hillsides and cresting over fast approaching crests is something else in a rotary wing but in one of these puppies it must be ball clenchingly epic. And now I live in Cardigan bay and use the Mach run road often, the road that is running to the left on the run into the valley. Awesome sights of these beasts flying along side you, the kids love it. Watching the film I can smell the cockpit, that mix of hot electrical equipment, avtur and human being. It's a smell most military vehicles and hardware has and im sure other veterans know what I am talking about. Always come back to this one when im feeling abit glum!

    Love the overbank across Innominate Tarn and Haystacks (wonder what Wainwright would make of being frightened out of his wits during a peaceful ramble) and down across Buttermere. Amazing to see how fast it all flashes past when you've spent ages walking it.

    These guys are machines. Not only do they have to be super educated, they gotta have perfect vision, pass all them gforce tests, endurance, concentration to the extreme and be ready for war. If you are lucky to make it then it must be a wonderful job

    Dear RAF, my grandad served with the RAF during ww2 and luckily made it home, he was a gunner who competed each mission with an A star,
    He was and is a legend.
    Is it possible to jump into a typhoon for a ride along ? The best fighter plane on the planet and best piliots

      I live near Airbase Volkel, the Dutch Air Force is mainly stationed there. I see F16's fly over every day. Some really low, some in formations. The churchtower of my town is actually one of the guidance points for the pilots, to direct to the landing strip. I also often see choppers, or huge radar planes, big as passenger planes

    People do know that this is not actually the pilot narrating this as he’s flying don’t you? This has been cleverly narrated with radio comms style audio effect by a guy that knows a few aviation lingo terms. Overall a fantastic video which I enjoy again and again. 👏
