Utmost respect to the folks keeping those WWII warbirds flying!
It's amazing how the f4 phantom is still a fighting machine that if needed can dogfight and pack a mean punch 👊
💯👍✈
It's just like how my 1897 mosin rifle can still put food on my table if I needed it. Military equipment is at a whole different level. God bless the f4
There's just something magical about watching all this engineering in action.
💯
My favorite is the flyby of the Spitfire, Mustang, and ME 262. All high performance for their respective debut's. 😎
Nice touch seeing those three shapes in the sky together
I lnow it’s been a few years but I still think we should never have retired the harrier
Yeah but now we have the F-35 with VTOL
@@reubenmawson-stevens2791I don’t think you know what vtol is vtol is vertical take off and landing the harrier is also vtol capable just like the F-35B you may also hear the F-35B is VSTOL capable which means vertical/short take off and landing but the harrier is also VSTOL capable both F-35 and harrier have the exact same capabilities
I'm with you on that.
The F-35's are Awesome for sure. The Harrier is more of tank though. Takes more abuse and it's got a more psychological, mennising look and effect.
@@reubenmawson-stevens2791 the F35 couldn’t deal with the gusty winds at RIAT on the Saturday. All it could manage was a slow flypast. Hardly an all-weather VSTOL aircraft - it may be muchmore advanced in many ways, but for VSTOL capability it doesn’t hold a candle to the Harrier. We’ve been sold an expensive lemon.
Bob, great work on this one! Some great images! Anyone would be lucky to have a granny like you! 😊
Thanks. Pleased you enjoyed watching!
Love it when folks actually understand my username 😉
So many still don't get it 🤔
@@bobsurgranny mate, a Londoner, ex army, living in Canada, I get it lol
Amazing to think that the first flight of the B52, or at least the prototype, was only 7 years after the end of WW2 and is still in active service
Great footage bob❤
👍
Excellent as always!
Cheers. Glad you enjoyed watching along
Harrier still looks as graceful as ever.
and I dare say as useful
nice to see it still out there
@@bobsurgranny you may, and you are correct.
It looks shit
So hard to pick a favourite but will go for B52, just so menacing and Dr Strange love, 👍❤
Glad you enjoyed watching along and found it tough choosing a fav 😉👍
I love the F35. Great video Bob :D
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it
Great viewing spot. Great vids.
Pleased you enjoyed watching along
I loved the Matadors (Harrier) My all the time fave plane.
Full mark's bob❤
Cheers
A400 looks like the love child of a C-130 and a C-17. Good looking aircraft though. Cheers from the US.
Frank Wittle ....the pioneer of jet engines.
WHAT A KILLER SPOT BOB!!!!
Pleased you enjoyed watching 👍
It certainly is a 'Killer Spot".
Particularly if the aircraft has a problem on Finals.
When are you people going to learn!??
@@gazza2933 thought the same thing. Myself, I’d be at a 45 degree angle off the centerline
Thanks, great video and audio. What vid camera did you use?
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it 🤗👍✈
I love the sound of the A400M. Awesome.
Lovely sound and so distinctive, I always know right away even when it flies over at high altitude
my favorite is the 262, i didnt even know they had one still flying!
It is a replica, but still neat seeing one flying 👍✈
Beautiful!
Pleased you enjoyed watching along 🤗
Very nice!
Glad you enjoyed watching 🤗
6:15 wow I was not expecting that, wicked
Nice to see albeit a replica.
Here's full video of it - ruclips.net/video/4rZnh3J3WP0/видео.html
Love the Phantom best.
Nice touch seeing the Phantom. Shame they don't get one doing a display or at least lower pass on arrival
Quality!
🤗😉
What day was this Bob? I went on the Saturday 15th a great show but rain spoilt so I went home at 2pm. Only wanted to see Raptor, Grippan, lightning? with those white flashes on upper wings. F- thingys and eurofighter, lancaster and spits. Breath taking seeing them overhead from your view point. I love the sound and shocking sight of them. I'm usually on the grandstand near the top row in the middle but with rain forecast I chose to sit on the pavement crowd line near helicopter's static display.
This was the arrival days. Wednesday and thurs
A two seater harrier! Didn’t know that exists cause I usually see a single seater harrier flying.
1:38 beautiful plane spotting 😍
that was a cool shot of the spit, P51 and the 262 from right underneath
Great seeing those in formation
@@bobsurgranny indeed!
Wow cracking stuff my man, what a day out but which one looked exactly like the jet on the opening credits of Hawaii 5'o? It was great.
Pleased you enjoyed the show! Not sure which you mean
@@bobsurgranny One of the Air Craft was just like the plane in the opening credits of Hawaii 5'0 the way you filmed those landing one of them was exactly the same, it was so uncanny. I will watch it again and tell you which one
@@julianp2868 Boeing 707/KC-135?
Me262 takes 1st prize, great footage thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it 😉
Despite only being a replica appose to the real aircraft you still gotta love that Me-262
💯
I didn’t think Harriers were flying around like that anymore. With the f35b I thought they were totally obsolete
USMC still use the Harrier, along with Spain and Italy that I know of
Great Video As Always. Excellent Editing. I Would Have To Put This Video In Your Top (5) Did Jet Fuel Fall On Anyone?
Thanks. Just sweet smelling fuel 😋
Which is number 1?!
@@bobsurgranny Blue Angels Low Low Fly Over , Your Head, Jet Fuel Got On Y'all. I Am Still Amazed How You Stood So Close Under Those F18's and All Jets!
@@bobsurgranny 😆
What day do arrivals start? I’m thinking about going next year
Most arrivals tend to come in on Wednesday and Thursday
Love shack baby loveshack.
Brilliant vid mate , best spot , saves aving to pay £8000 for aTicket 😂
Cheers. Absolutely!
However I wouldn't go in if they paid me haha
1:37 target is..lower🤣🤣🤣🍌
😂😉
Awesome video! Love the variety! I am unfamiliar with the 2 jets at 13:53 - 14:43 minutes. Will someone please inform me of what they are?
Pleased you enjoyed watching.
Hunter and Vampire jets 👍
Hawked Hunter and De Havilland Vampire (with twin tail booms)
Sorry HAWKER Hunter
Harrier 👍👍👍👍it’s brilliant 💪💪💪💪🙏🙏🙏🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
the SU-22 is my favorite airplane
Nice touch getting to see that this year
The F-16 is such a perfect jet. I'll never understand why they retired it
So much room and you are standing underneath all the planes 😂
This comment makes me realise why I only have a handful of subscribers haha and my channel overall under performs somewhat
You don't get it and never will..
Youre right i dont get it, 30 years ago i was standing with a camera, number book, binoculair and a handscanner all over airbases in Europe to spot, spotting has died. So i will never get these clips only for the clicks. You guys are youtubers, youre no spotters. You get all your info from the internet, how are you spotting the serial numbers of all the landing planes?
13:06 the best moment
Shame he wasn't a wee bit lower though
on Thumbnail (intro picture) from let Polish Air Force Su-22, Hellenic (Greek) Air Force F4 Phantom and Spanish Harrier:-)
👍💯✈
Was that a Vampire in there somewhere ?
Yep 14:32
Wow what a great spot!! ID @3:25?

Thanks @@bobsurgranny!
11.53, can tornado transfer fuel to each other??
Yeah they can by the looks of it, I was unaware that they could.
Perhaps it's a new thing but unlikely
Yes, via a buddy/buddy pod.
9:55 are those Tornado’s?
Yes German Air Force
@@bobsurgranny ooh very nice
My favorite is f35
Great bit of jet noise as the F35B flew over in the semi-hover.
Glad you enjoyed watching 😉👍
ME 262!!!!!!
It,s to later now as they are all gone
HEy whats the point of the approach without seeing it touch down! specially the 16's and the 15's come on!
The killjoys have ruined any chances of catching the touchdowns from this location by putting up loads of expensive and ridiculous fences everywhere, all in the name of safety. But pretty sure it's just being bossy, taking freedom of folks away and spoiling our fun
@@bobsurgranny oh man! That explains what a bummer
На входной денег нет? Или принцип?
Бесплатно!
As one who spent 42 years in British aerospace defence projects, watching this makes me weep.
Tornado, Harrier, Nimrod all scrapped with years of effective life ahead of them.
Meanwhile we bow the knee to the US to build a bit of metal for its £100m a throw F35.
Criminal.
dirty old sid I see what you are doing!
Less of the old, why'd you assume I'm old haha
Ukranians in the crowd....if i heard correctly.
Special relationship that costs the taxpayer billions.....???
Eh?
Possibly one of my countrymen (US) complaining about the ‘cost’ of the UK/USA alliance (which has of course benefitted both countries greatly, not least that we’ve copied pretty much everything the Royal Navy did up to & including most carrier innovations).
