AirshowStuffVideos : I'm Really Liking the Air Show the F/A-18C Hornet 🐝 is Putting On 🛩🛩👍
I Like the Helmet Cam View Also Watching the Instrument and Ground FLYING By 🛩🛩👍
*extra video bro....:)*
Jump Scrub :?....

Are these planes only created to fight, cause I'd love to fly one some day, but, I don't want to fight
Just gotta say: THANK YOU for not overlaying music to this (like everyone else seems to do, for some inexplicable reason). Thoroughly enjoyed it.
+ecxpac Yeah I like raw better.
+Robert Love That's what she said.
+hawtchick69 Well then...
ecxpac well bless your heart
ecxpac i agree, this way i can play my own music over this & still hear the engine in the background for additional effect. ✈
"You ready?"
"Yea sure, I'm just gonna taxi my F/A-18C out to fly around and make some kids ooh and aww and get some coeds wet, but first I gotta wait for these B-17s to taxi past me..."
What a fucking job.
LOL...Agreed
Gotta say, I got a lol off that also, and I like they showed "love" to each other!
Respect in flying!🤷🏿♂👍🏿
I like the magic handle where he reaches up and rotates the world.
What is that handle for?
Ben Barclay it's just something to grab hold of
@@blbarclay86 It helps to stop you from throwing up.
Ben Barclay it’s the OH SHIT handle
Yeah...I was trying to drink coffee at the time, now I know who to blame.
Screw motovlogging, I am going to invest in a fighter jet and FighterVlog.
Good luck on that sir
No fucking way!! I love you bro. I'm getting my pilots license but I'm broke so it will take me a while. You should for sure do the same thing!
I see you in strange places.
Lmao
Capt'n Tread flight school for a year i think is around 50 thousand dollars. If you get a loan you could pay it off in 5 years if you become a commercial pilot.
I can't believe how quiet the cockpit is!
+1 Trillion views
It would of been louder but the camera just can't pick up all of that loud sound so it sounds quieter than it is. Trust me it's not quiet.
It's probably a go pro camera in it's waterproof case which muffles the sound. He'd need an external mic to record the sound.
Janoy Cresova's 5% Order 66 Company you do realise how much sound proofing there is when the cockpit is sealed. Look at the end when he pops the hood and blips the jet, no where near full power, still considerably louder.
Fighter cockpits are extremely loud. Pilots wear double ear protection with plugs and muffs and still have significant hearing loss and tinnitus.
Actually it’s remarkably quiet. All the noise is behind you. At speed it’s startling just how quiet. The only thing noticeable is the vibration and constant radio comms. This vid is about as loud as it gets. Of course the helmets muffle some so it feels even quieter.
Great flying in this ride a long video with an F-18 pilot!
OwO what's this?
FlightChops that was you?! Awesome!
Chops!!
Finally a fighter jet vid without a bunch of bouncy music. God bless our fighting men an women.
Pedro Dooley And dogs :P
Only a bouncing fuckin head/camera
Thanks for not ruining this with crap music.
Instead of ruining it with crap hip hop/dubstep....
play the song danger zone lol
Trace Gatlin l
C
así se habla la música lo daña es mejor escuchar el sonido natural de la aeronave
Having mirrors on makes your FPS drop, just sayin'.
Connor Depew lol
Connor Depew you obviously havent played arma
grahamsproductionz lol
Not when you have a PC that runs Battlefield 4 on Ultra bud ;)
Michaelthe Cuntcrusher o really? you fly joystick? know how to clear a building or town single handedly? know how to properly drive a crewed tank? Oh im sorry, forgot you played battlefield.
That has to be one of the best inflight videos that I've ever seen. Thank you Capt Michael Allan for taking us on that flight with you and the way you handled the Hornet. Top stuff.
You can always tell that they're a Naval Aviator because they slam the plane down on the deck even when they are landing at an airfield ! 🤣
And then come to stop in a couple hundred feet and just sit there.
It is a Navy Jet carrier based, very few if any Air Force or Army pilots have flown them. They’re all lucky and blessed to have the opportunity to actually do it too. Wished I wouldn’t have turned my life into hammered crap, I wanted to become a pilot in the military but life has a funny way of picking another path 😝
@@alteregos8949 honestly thats a very poor excuse
Try it . You never knows.
@@alteregos8949 me too
Air Force: "Touch & go"
Navy: KAPOW & BOING.
God this looks like so much fun...
it does
You Fighter Pilots are awesome...a rare breed. Looks like so much fun...you make it look like child's play
I love when the entire flight is shown from start to finish!! Thank you!!
That has to be one of the most entertaining in-flight vids I've ever seen. Thank you, Capt Michael Allan, for taking us on that flight and for handling the Hornet so well. It's fantastic.
Holy smokes! That was one of the best jet videos I've ever seen. 22 minutes of just flying. No dumb music. Thank you!
Same sound track as my vacuum cleaner
Mine too!
Geoff Thomas 😂😂omg your awesome
You have good taste in music
Get a life kid
Proper amount of suction
One of the best POVs ever. The helmet cam makes all the difference. Thanks for sharing. Brilliant video.
One of the best fighter flight videos I've ever seen. Well done.
Awesome video!
There are a lot of folks out there like me, that are HUGE military aircraft fans, but will most likely never get the chance to fly one, or even ride in one.
High quality videos like this are those closest we can ever get.
A big thanks for posting.
Thankyou for this real experience! Music is fine but I've always wanted to hear the forces on the jet and was surprised at how much you can hear! Awesome.
What an AWESOME job to have! The dedication, hard work, and sacrifices sure hope paid off for these fine pilots! Looks so peaceful up there in the sky.
MAN!!!! That was fun. Thanks for the ride-a-long.
I flew on that B-17. What a small world I'd randomly come across this video and see the B-17 I flew in.
David "Miscarriage" Miscavige there are not many surviving and flying B17
Fantastic! Aged 5 I sat in a Sabre cockpit here in the UK when my Dad (wartime navigator RAF) knew some USAF pilots stationed over here. Now age 65 this video is the closest I shall ever get to knowing what it is like to fly in a US Navy Hornet! Wish you could come over and fly like that at the Fairford RIAT display in 2014!
Best ride along video yet. Thanks was a joy. Amazing how fast these thing can maneuver, actually hear the wind tearing and can see it. Just amazing stuff, faster than I imagined too unreal how fast that plane can climb. Something about the sound of a jet engine and planes, always been such a relaxing soothing sound for me.
This was nothing short of incredible! With each lift and dive I could feel the G's as if I were in the craft with him! Such a beautiful view and a wild ride! Thank you so much for posting this!
I clicked LIKE because they didn't have LOVE. One of the BEST videos I've seen on RUclips. - Thanks!
This is pure pornography! B-17 just standing there, engines turning and a P-51B/C, and a Hornet ride along.
Incredible video!! Thanks so much for posting!!
What an amazing machine. Thanks for uploading!
What an amazing experience! I love it!! :)
Wow the terrain goes by so fast compared to looking out the window of a commercial jet.
Fighter jets are like atheletes, they are really fast and maneuverable. While commercial planes are like fat people, slow and very hard to maneuver.
What you're experiencing is parallax, commercial jets tend to fly at much higher altitudes than what this video was showing, even though these jets are just going slightly faster than the airliners, gives the appearance of being a lot faster.
atomicsteameng and looking at the video, it looks sped up after take-off.
+Atomicsteamengine
...the average commercial airliner flies at about mach 0.75.
the F-18 can hit level speeds of mach 1.5. and that's when they're travelling, not when they're diving like in the video..
Junn Kopf I'm fully aware of that, but these F/A-18's are not traveling at mach 1.5 are they? I'd bet that these F/A-18 at best are going at .75 mach. Just because they can get to mach 1.5 doesn't mean that they're at that speed constantly. Besides, it's illegal to go above mach 1 over the land.
Wow amazing to ride along with the pilot like that. Truly an incredible feat of dynamics!
This was amazing!!! Thank you for providing this!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥👍
I you close your eyes it sounds just like vacuuming
true
Nate Bee holy crap it does sound like it
That's kind of how a jet engine works though, sucks up alot of air and burns fuel, right? so it kinda makes sense?
I'm not a rocket surgeon
massive balls of steel man...respect!
Always appreciate people who take the time to shoot and give us the pilots POV. I like it when they start from outside the plane, and climb up to the cockpit. God Bless Our Military
Thanks for the ride along. Capt. Stab
Now! that's the first time I saw a fighter jet pilot wearing bermuda and no gloves, if he had to eject, he would've been one naked skydiver lol
LOL hes wearing a g-suit over his tan flight suit
"adjust rear-view mirror" - that's something I don't have in PS-28 cruiser takeoff checklist :-)
this is level - awesome flying ..
Beautiful! The sound was soothing as we could only hear the soft hum of that smooth engine. Nice. Thank you! The head-cam makes all the difference. I really felt this flight. Thank you again.
I love the sound. So beautiful to hear. Love that jet hum and the air over the wings.
The buffeting sound is amazing. Really helps you understand what forces are involved.
What a great way to earn a living
That's how I'll earn mine soon!!
nice. You a pilot then ?
No yet but I doing the process to incorporate me in the air force.
***** I am chairborne ranger I love my office too.
+disco balls Battlefield 3 and 4 sucks, they are arcade games, if you really want to feel an aircraft like it very real then play DCS world.
Amazing! Love it without the music. It's so cool to see how these pilots fly and land. Compare to general aviation it's awsome to see them "break the rules" . Warriors.
great video man you got the camera in the right place to see all ,probably one of the best cockpit views Ive seen in a jet
Omg brother that was amazing by far thank you so much for sharing this 🗽💪🏻🛡️
amazing graphics on this game.. :-P
Absolutely amazing.. My dream is to be a pilot.
Not if he's smart and willing
If he is commited and puts his heart to it he can do anything
Rico Fesal Ahmada thats where your wrong
Rico Fesal Ahmada Spoken like a true underachiever.
you cant you are jedi master :D
Living my dream, nice video thanks for the ride!
Thanks for the ride captain! :)
This video need some respect,guys!
So glad there is no music. The worst thing about most military video posts on RUclips is the music.
So true
Awesome video!! The best ride along without being there, THX!!
Thank god for RUclips!
Thank you for posting!
This video shows perfectly how low level and high speed leaves little margin for error when close to the ground or even approaching it from thousands of feet above it pointed down. There is slim to zero time to correct for an error or if something goes wrong with the aircraft.
That's why I don't think they should be flying like that. Too risky. I suppose it is good training to have for actual combat?
Awesome!!
Thank you for this wonderful video.
Appears so much more majestic and slower in the cockpit compared to viewing from the ground. How beautiful
6:30 up the hand with 5/6g, look at that blood pressure :D
It makes him look 50 years older.
He can barely grab the handle lol
B17's in background!! BONUS!!
🏆👏😉
i have the upmost respect for people like you...this was a very cool video.
thx for the upload sir!
Love the ride along video...thanks!!
That's so surreal. Wow. Just see
Flying through the clods like nothing its just. Wow
4:19 "Dam I look good."
@Central Intelligence Agency How do you feel now that I reminded you of your 11 month old comment?
*Amazing video, thanks for posting!!!*
Thx for the ride, captain!
I like the B17
Very nice B24s as well
holy shit THREE B-17s at the same airshow? Oh wow. Edit: FOUR!! ??
+David There were actually eight!
airshowstuff.smugmug.com/2010AirshowsAviation/Thunder-Over-Michigan-2010/RS-TOM2010/i-gjcZMHw
(One was moved when the photo was taken)
Thank you for the info. Eight of those magnificent beasts in one place. Wow.
+AirshowStuffVideos in the 2 seaters can both people fly the plane using the stick or is it just the pilot only?
+Derek Wall Well I'm not ASV but I will give you an answer which is...sometimes! Lol. If the aircraft is a trainer variant then there will be two sets of controls with the student up front and instructor in the back. In other aircraft with two seats (A-6, F/A 18-D/F, F-14, F-15 E) the other seat is designed for a bombardier/navigator/systems operation type function and is manned (or womaned) by Weapon Systems Officer or Naval Flight Officer (who is NOT a pilot, that's a Naval Aviator). The B-2 on the other hand is flown by two fully qualified pilots with the mission commander flying right seat and can be fully operated from either position.
+David Thanks, that sums it up well!
gotta love military pilots. from the moment he applies full power on the runway every single thing he does after that until touchdown is choreographed to the second and drilled to perfection. a glimpse of how awesome at something a human can become!
Yep, Willow Run Airport in Ypsilanti, MI.
The jet and crew are from VFA-106, the single ship F-18C demo team.
where I can get this FSX addon? What CPU and graphic do you have?
Idiot
It's obviously x plane not fsx
Waldemar Morawiec It's not a simulation. This is an actual airshow performed with an actual F/A-18C.
Smro_SM r/whoosh
I got under the covers and watched this and made myself sick lol
I just love these videos mainly because when the pilots put their hands on the grips it just gives you such a great sense of gravity and Gforce / weightlessness. :)
Awesome ride! Thanks Captain.
It makes you realise how small a cockpit actually is!
Pilots get made fun of by other branches but once you sit in the thing, you realize how cramped it is.
Man...I can feel he Gs.
Amazing footage! Awesome aircraft, nice flying.
Thanks for the cool ride!
Nice to see a great vid like that without some crappy music.
It is nice.
I'd give anything to fly that bird for a few minutes. That's not your daddy's Cessna.
Fantastic!
:)
The whole experience is impressive!
Enjoyed the ride, thanks.
finally a video without the stupid "sail" song!
someone else watched the entire video?
Me
Yup
I did
Great video, thanks for taking me up there with you. I always wanted to be a naval aviator when I was growing up.
that was intense, thank you for this video
16:39 - Okay, one hand on one grab bar, other hand on the other grab bar... WAIT A MINUTE!
That's exactly what happened ^^^
nah, actualy he's just getting back to his seat properly.
It's a 2 man plane you fucking idiot.
it's an f/a-18c, it's not at all a 2 man plane
Calling him a fucking idiot when you're wrong.
Follow The Grow even if it was a 2 man plane the pilot sits in the front you fucking idiot. Don’t go round calling people idiots if you’re a dumbass yourself
Should've put the camera on top of the helmet...
Not enough room between the canopy and the helmet.
Best ride I ever had..this cat is a real jockey and hotdogger .thanks man you're an ace
Thanks for making this vid
Dcs world graphics are really good.
Do they have the f18 in DCS yet?:)
***** no :(
DCS playa right here
*****
Soon hopefully !!!
+John Smith well it's just a different plane the start up procedures are pretty much the same in any fighter jet... Who knows peple could be like HAHAHA YOU NERD U PLAY FLOGHT SIMS and when the apocalypse comes where sitting in a10 wRthogs while there being eaten by zombies
Never thought jets sound like a vacuum cleaner from the inside.
I've flown in a jet fighter twice and they do. In the cockpit you primarily hear the sound of the engine compressors that are located just behind you. They suck in air just like a vacuum cleaner except on a much larger scale.
That is the Air Pressurization and air conditioning system in the cockpit.
Love the wave he gives to the traffic on the highway on short final
Wow, that was beautiful. Thank you! :)
Just one question: how does he fly that thing without a g-suit? isn't that kinda unsafe?
What makes you think that he isn't wearing one?
well, his arms would have wayy too short sleeves plus his knees are visible from time to time
Tracomaster A g-suit only covers the legs where it can squeeze. You don't want the suit squeezing the knee because it's a joint.
so they leave the knees open? :/
Yeah, it just covers the thighs and calves.
Battlefield IRL. XD
Another "day at the office"? Probably the coolest video I've ever seen on RUclips!!
This is easily my favorite video on you tube
