Wonderful to see, I just returned from the UK, serving there on exchange with the RAAF.... I miss this heavy metal already! The airline stuff just doesn't cut the mustard of a dawn strike in Australia!!! 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
OMG !!!! Australian fire power at its best. Go RAAF !!!!
I flew A3-17 mirage and I never looked back retired now loved the life and excitement better and faster than the hornet loved the cannons firing beside me
Thanks guys from an old flt ltnt
I like the F-35 but I agree the Hornet just has something about it
A real treat of heavy hitters thank you for posting greetings from steve in England to you and all who watch
Afterburner heaven there, the f-35's were like rockets!
I realize it is pretty randomly asking but do anyone know of a good site to stream newly released series online ?
i was there that morning. Freezing cold.
I was pretty excited as it was my first time seeing the f35s in the metal. when they came rolling out the scene was surprisingly appropriate. cold, sun only just rising, and the ghostly, futuristic forms of the f35 sort of spookily rolling down the taxiway before blasting off. I will miss the hornets though. They just seem to have a bit more personality.
I am always fascinated by the variety of paint jobs on these Australian jets.
So wonderful to see and hear.
Thank you for getting this footage! Williamtown is such a great place to get some amazing footage!
Your welcome I do my best to get these defence events like this and mainly to get as much hornet footage before retirement
Wonderful
Thankyou for posting, my first video of watching our RAAF F35 doing a takeoff. Love the afterburner.
Doesn’t get old!
Interesting to see an ARDU there! Great stuff!
This is so cool. Thank you for filming this!
Your welcome and yeah really cool being there early in the morning watching them take off
Those f18's sure are a beautiful looking aircraft!
I was in just about the same spot. Colder morning than I remembered from my time there in the 70’s.
Where abouts is this shot from? Is it the fighterworld cafe
Luke Walker there or maybe the grassy area just to the left.
Awesome footage from down under!!!
Thanks Ben
Great footage Excellent RAAF Aircraft and Air and Ground crews to make IT All Happen .. Thanks your Service. And Thanks for your video mate
Thank you I did what I can do many more to come over the years and yeah this is the second last year of the hornet at Williamtown
Awesome vid! Thanks for posting 👍
Awesome clip. Thankyou
The F/A-18's taxiing into the picture is like the parents coming to see the kids off.
Terrific stuff!
I saw three of these today and got to watch one take of
Btw (they are super loud and I mean like deafening loud
The sound of freedom...
Absolutely love this
Awesome thank you 👌
Very cool. JSF just coming in then1 Up the RAAF!
Too awesome
Nice video mate 👍🏻
The f-35 set off a car horn😂😂
The F35 sounds louder and deeper.
Sure does
That's because the engine is the most powerful fighter jet engine in the world.
Eyeofthetiger I know that🙄
Great Video Favourite Jet is F35 Wish I could film it. Have a good time.
Can't wait to the F 35 come to sale and rattle a few Windows. Like the F111 did
I prefer the 3SQN Southern Cross tail art to the Bombing Eagle.
I first saw the F-35 turn and burn at an airshow and was taken back at how fast it could turn WITHOUT losing speed, then to watch them take off next to 30 year old F-18s I am taken back again at how rapidly it pile don speed with the AB, it lifted off 100m before the F-18 did, these things are FAST.
Ive always been a big fan of the F35 and what it can do is amazing the sounds are unbelievable and the afterburner is amazing
Have you seen The Euro Typhoon take off?
Somewhere out there there's still a Rex Saab 340 waiting for clearance to land.
When the 35s took off you could almost hear the sighs coming from the Hornet drivers 😑
great video guy! salute from argentina. I´m a spotter but i never can see one of these type of aircraft.
One day you will get the chance to spot them and thank you for your comment
Cool
We may need these bad boys sooner than you think..............
single afterburner (GOOD), twin afterburner (GREAT)
Top footage mate, great work. Makes me a bit ashamed that I never got around to editing my RTB footage from 2017 Dawn Strike with the Hornets going transonic over the base and some four-engine fighter pilots in a Super Hercules going flat stick on the deck over the Fighter World hanger trying to keep up with them 😆. Keep it up with the good stuff my man, cheers. 👍
Thanks it gets crazy with the pilots really low even herc
@@Aviation_Videos I'm back up on the coast now, 30 or 40 k's away from the airport. No excuse not to get up there for the next exercise. Do you know when that might be by any chance? 'spose I could always check the usual sources but you seem clued in lol 😉
@@sixstringedthing nice well im about 1100kms away and hoping to be back in December for 77 squadron final hornet flight but not sure on if there will be an ex between now end of year
@@Aviation_Videos yeah, I note from the name that you've ticked up some points for this footage (business expenses one hopes?), I've been keen to get down to the Avalon show for a decade or so but the funds haven't been available, Albion Park Rail was as far as I was able to manage. 😆
Thanks for the heads-up about 77SQN Hornet farewell, that's going in the diary for sure. 👍👍
@@sixstringedthing haha business hobby more like it i live in geelong and avalon is my local so yeah haha if you have Facebook search this page name send it a msg and ill add you and I can keep you upto date whats flying so on and we can meet up some stage
Boys with their new toys
Straya! Fuck yeah!
What’s the filming location?
I like the video but my old beast sounded better! A3-17 mirage 111o out of Williamtown taking off about with afterburner
F18s always seem to do a quick rotation of the stick to get the flaps going prior to lighting up the burners...something in that? Notice it almost everytime.
They do what is called a wipe out of the controls. Basically push the stick around in a full circle a couple of times to do a final check of the fligjt control system
Yes I really like that. It always reminds me of a bird stretching its wings before taking off
Now all we have to do is get our Jockeys some decent birds to ride around the skies in.
Sound of freedom indeed Then prople buy homes anywhere near the RAAF base and moan about aircraft noise!? They've actually got a noise complaint number at Williamtown Yeah I'll buy a house near the RAAF 's main fàst jet base then bitch about the noise!
Can't wait to the F 35 come to sale and rattle a few Windows like the F111 did
The F35 set car alarms off
@@Aviation_Videos Rumour has it Ray Charles can see the F35 😜
Air force 4 Eva.
I live 40 min from there
Nice I'm an 1h 30m flight haha
Same.. Maitland :)
Needs more wind noise. If you get a second microphone (and make sure it doesn't have a wind filter either), imagine how much more wnd could could pick up.
PS. It's Defence Force or Australian Defence Force. The only s should be in Australian.
How often do they take off from Williams town? Is weekly thing?
It’s Williamtown, and most week days
@@stephenpage-murray7226 yeah i dropped by one morning had a browse through the hanger with the retired fighter jets, F111 some you can sit in the cockpit of a fighter from the Vietnam era, very clunky primitive controls and cramped, out on the viewing deck plenty of these ones one this upload taking off and circling then landing, obviously training new pilots, very busy place
Two engines are still better than one… ask any former mirage pilot…
Definitely not stealth strobes
Porn is not allowed on RUclips.
With the country broke and in recession where's the money coming from to keep these plane's flying????????
Totally understand your point, but, if, as with the RAF, the aircrew don’t train and stay sharp then when the sh1t hits the fan it’s going to be virtually impossible for the RAAF or any airforce to defend your homeland and save you from taking a crash course in Chinese/Russian/North Korean or any other language, plus if the aircrew don’t get their hours in they throw their collective teddies (or in this case koala 🐨 bears) out their collective cots for the groundcrew to pick up and put their dummies (pacifiers) back in, believe me, after 24 years in the RAF I know what I am talking about, had to put a great many OCU pilots back in, wind them and change a few nappies (diapers/napkins). Nonetheless, a fantastic sight, and sound, go RAAF, Per Ardua Ad Astra. 😀👍🇬🇧🏴
Defence spending is an open cheque book for the Defence department.Can anyone tell me what is happening with those french submarines that we want to buy, it seems everything has gone quite.
Australia is not broke and was out of the brief covid induced recession Q4 2020 after 30-odd years without a recession. Australia is ramping up defence spending because of China, not reducing it. The money comes from the same place it always does, with the addition of a bit more imaginative action by the Reserve Bank to pay for all the covid-related stimulus, some of which is still ongoing.
Awesome
