My son is one of these pilots. We were so proud of him.
So u should be!!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
He really is a credit to you, Elaine. I signed on for 6 years and had to work hard and so an 18 year commitment is something to be commended.
18 years waiting for that😁
24 minutes and 10 seconds in, Lewis is in the circuit and the narrator says, “At 500 mph it takes Lewis five minutes to ………….” Ummmm, if Lewis was doing 500 mph around the circuit that would surely be an RAF record! Surely someone checks this stuff before it gets aired?
"..countless procedures and checks."
Every line/step in any checklist literally has a number preceding it.
It is a bit surreal listening to the news clips in these episodes regarding the build up to Operation Iraqi Freedom - and to know that we are now 20+ years on and that a number of these pilots are now in senior roles within the RAF.
wish they hadn't added that annoying music during the flight scenes !!
The music and music editing is terrible….
I can assure you, the rest of the raf was nothing like this
I cant see the BAE HAWK MARK 200 may I know that any video related about the BAE HAWK MARK 200.
5:29 Jules :-)
I could always count on losing weight every time I had to wear those hot NBC suits (US Army veteran 1984 - 1988)
When i was i the Royal Navy at Basic in HMS Raleigh i had to wear a NBCD suit and Respirator for a whole day in one of the hottest summers as a punishment for titting about and not doing as i was told by the Chief!
@@bigmull LOL - I guess it's true that what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
Done
Anyone else find the incidental music irritating? BTW: First :-)
I can feel my tongue
Impressive, I suppose! Could any of these so called `intelligent` people remove and restore DTD5580A polyurethane surface finish coatings, apply national insignia and mandatory markings? Could they f**K!. Garry H. RAF Cpl Painter retired! 😋
Tell me you’re a REMF without telling me you’re a REMF
Brilliant comment. So could you or any other single cell organisms within your trade fly a BAE Hawk and then move on to combat jets like the Eurofighter Typhoon or the F35?
@@Mrd296 probably not but he could probably paint them…….
