@@DragNetJoe Lol, no. If you can't look away for a moment and still fly whatever jet you're in then you shouldn't be flying a jet at all. They are professional, they know what they can and cannot do and won't risk something stupid like crashing for a photo op.
me and my grandfather every year would go to the air shows or plane watch...he died a few years ago...but I feel connected to him everytime i watch fighter's!!
I'm spending my early electrical engineering career working on technology that goes into these fine aircraft. Makes me proud to see them in action. Thank you for the great footage!
Wow! Awesome, Awesome, Awesome! I’m crazy about aviation, but this: the setting, the moments captured, the shots. Simply Brilliant and once again, awesome! Thanks for posting. Love your channel.
This is an extraordinary good and functional video with impressively crisp photographs. It shows the skill and comfort of the pilots in a good way. No music is needed, because I was entertained from the beginning to the end of this video. Bravo!
4:16 Holy crap! I didn’t think you could capture anything better than those f35! This is mind blowing. The clarity on this is insane! 4:44! This is so awesome 🤙🏼
Phenomenal video quality ... I put together a brand new system in early November 2018, i9 9900k, 960 Gb SSD, 64 gigs of DDR4, an RTX 2080 and a 32" 4k monitor. Far as I know this was the first video I've seen at 4k. The freeze frames really brought out the quality of this video. Thanks much for uploading - awesome stuff!!!
Awesome setup Chris! Hey, Phil Holland Cinematography has some 8K footage he shot in NYC with 3-12K cameras spliced together that is crazy awesome. With your system it should play perfectly! BTW, Dafydd this is incredible footage. I am SOOO jealous!
Far too many videos on RUclips are just crap quality. Some of them unbelievably so. I always appreciate it when somebody takes the time and puts out the effort to create something of very high quality - when they care enough about what they're doing to "send the very best." 8k or higher wouldn't help us online, I suspect. There are probably a few fanatics out there using 72" TV's as a display monitor, where that kind of resolution might be taken advantage of, but I'm sure they're few and far between. It isn't happening at our house! :D It was really a treat to watch this - the content and the quality were just over the top, as well as the editing. Isn't it the most awesome thing to put in that kind of effort and commitment to something, and actually have it impact people? How many feel the same way I do and just didn't take the time to express it?
I just built my son a new gaming rig with a few spares I had laying around - 4x 22 core Xeon Gold 6152's, 12x 1TB WD Black, 1TB RAM, 2x RTX 2080 Ti, 4x ASUS ROG Swift PG27UQ 4K 144Hz G-SYNC HDR monitors. He loves playing roblox.
Mad respect for military pilots. The things you have to know and be able to execute are crazy. But whoever was in that C27J Spartan is a badass for being able to maneuver it like that.
4:43 Great pic. I like how he hit the afterburners just for everyone on the hill. - I've seen a lot of these videos and this is one of the best. Wonderful. - The Talon's are beautiful planes.

@@santeebandit3246 Don't your Airforce and NASA have a website? I bet there's an office for "public relations". Finding the pilots is easier for their "communication" collegues.

You only shot those planes the right way. Shot in Death Valley. Sounds like a western. By Sam Wocket. Good luck, it's good video. And still.
To me that was the most impressive plane there. It's probably limited to a 60 degree bank and no vertical capabilities like the fighters. While the C-130 is so big to be confined like that we have seen the Herc do so many amazing things that this looks old hat.
Really nice. Sound of freedom. Loved the pilot where he gave you the high 5. Amazing pilots that we take for granted. Prop ones are great in comparison too!
Watching or filming videos is great, but there is something extremely special about a still image. You can watch a 10 minute video and its over, but with a photograph you can stare at it for hours in wonder and amazement. Kudos, incorporating both. 👍 4:46 👀
In it's most simplify way, these canyon vd' s just deliver the goods for us specters to see, and thanks for that (love it).

Me too! One time a huge cargo plane flew REALLY LOW over the highway our convertible car traffic stopped. We were screaming looking at the guts of the plane... too wowed to know what it was. Exhilarating!
As someone who’s been to rainbow canyon multiple times, I’ll just say first time; tears of joy. Immediately 10 years old again with my dad at an airshow.
WOW!!! Those still shots are freaking awesome!!! My husband and I used to volunteer at air shows and so miss seeing these planes fly. We have GOT to plan a trip to this place. Thanks for sharing. We loved this video!!!
I didn't see a color television until my junior year in college. Had I seen this video when I was 12 years old, absolutely nothing could have stopped me from becoming a fighter pilot. My parents were both private pilots in the '50s. A brother flew helicopters for the Navy in the 80s. My oldest son pilots for Delta and USAFR. I just didn't get the right message at the right time in my life. BTW, my son the Delta pilot got his motivation around age 5 from the Space Shuttle. Flying became his goal at a very early age.
@@dblankenship88: A few weeks prior to PCS, found out my Grandmas nephew (had never heard of him) was Flight-line Superintendent at Shepard. He arranged the flight.

Rajveer Singh , l come from a race of Christian people that genocide was attempted twice by as Ilan Omar says “by some people “. In 1896 250,000 Armenian men,women and children were massacred with swords. Then in 1915 1,500,000 Armenians were massacred by the same people. So you’re right. Killing innocent people and there no one that came to their rescue except the Greeks.
Abdelrahman Sallam , it is very relevant for today. What about the 300 Easter Christian worshipers in a church that were massacred recently? It doesn’t need to be just in the Middle East
Love it. When I was in my teens my pops used to take me out past Lancaster CA. For sonic boom Tuesday or Wednesday. Loved it. I want to go and do this though. Looks awesome
The T-38 has been flying since 1959......In my opinion, it is an exceptionally modern looking plane, even by today's standards. love the still pic of it
There was actually a modernized variant of the F-5 (fighter version of the T-38) made in the 1980s, called the F-5G/F-20 Tigershark. It had pretty much the same airframe, just a single GE F404 replacing the twin engines it once had. It was gonna be an export fighter, but it lost out the the F-16.
@@DafyddPhillips, just spoke my mind!!!!!. Best cannon flying vid in a long, long while!!!!!. Please, whenever possible keep videos like this posted. Once again, EXCELLENT JOB!!!!.
Just watched that on my 67th birthday, ( what a treat that was for me). The Magister bought back memories of the 60s when I saw one at RAF Northolt UK 👍.
back in 96 i was working a job on WPAFB and just happened to have a front row seat to a couple of fighters that were in a turning contest from the top of the desi building. one of the best days i had that ear :) cant imagine how much fun it was to simply be there in death valley getting to see all of this.
First of all I want to congratulate you for the incredible work done. Being a professional photographer, the question arises of knowing what equipment, especially for the photographs they have used. Thank you very much and again congratulations.
Thanks George. I use a mainly a canon 1dx2 but for the photos in this video I used a canon 7d2 along side. The lens is a 300mm f2.8 with a 1.4 converter when needed.
@@DafyddPhillips My friend, thank you very much for your prompt reply. It has been very useful for me to choose a camera for sports use in the not too distant future. From what I see Canon is not disappointing in this field due to its incredible focus. Thank you again very much and my deepest admiration for your work. Greetings from Argentina.
@@DafyddPhillips awesome. You are taking quality film with rapid pics to get jewels. I never knew this was a thing! Even the big bettys get a run! Thank you sir!
leokimvideo Tom likes to fly his P-51. He use to own a Gnat not sure if he still does. I was there when he bought it years ago. Came in his King air 90 to do the paper work.
Absolutely incredible footage a credit too all involved and some of the best pilots is the USA, I also love the fact some of the pilots are looking at the photographers brilliant 🖖
Love the clicking sound of the motordrive of the camera! It really demands some skills flying these monsters so close to mountains! Beautiful but also haunting. They remind me of war, where they're made for I guess
Wow, I wish I were retired or a professional photographer so I could get the time to go out there and feel it as well as see it. Thank you for the video, great job!
F15's are just monsters...looking forward to an F15X and hoping we buy a few more than 12. That tandem F16 pair in full afterburner was pretty wicked too. Amazing frickin photography though, whoa...
These things literally drift in a 3D space. It's insane how complex these machines are and all the punishment they take doing those maneuvers. These pilots knows where they are heading while they never look at the place the plane go. It's mesmerizing.
Love the whole video, such quality capture of light, sound and action. My favorite is the still of the F18 at 2:26, it looks like a majestic big cat with shiny fur...
As a Frenchman I did not expect to see a Magister! To make this air show in the valley of death is very beautiful, it would be necessary that they invite allied nations!
In 2001 post 9-11 I saw a sequential take-off of Virgina ANG F16 squadron at Richmond airport while sitting in a 737 waiting for our take-off slot. The first F16 did a mild 180 reversal after lifting off the runway. The second F16 cranked a tighter 180 reversal. The 3rd cranked even tighter. The 4th was inverted at 300 feet screaming back toward the start of the runway at full throttle afterburner! No doubt the 4th pilot was in a hurry to form up with his buddies.
My father in law was a lead electrician for the first F-22. He was so proud to have worked on that project before he retired. Sadly, we lost him to cancer in 2019 but we have his F-22 commemorative flight line jacket he religiously wore. 😊

He helped put the angel of death in the sky. Rest easy.
That’s something he should have been very proud of. That’s something his entire family should be proud of for generations to come.
Best plane of all time.
Flying a nimble fighter through a canyon, sure that's fun. Flying a large cargo plane through a canyon, give that pilot a damn medal.
I completely agree!
dude, I saw 3 c-130s in line formation a few years ago, coming out of my local mountains. the baddest shit I've ever seen!! 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
if you screw up just this much, you'll be flying a cargo plane full of rubber dog shit out of Hong Kong!
@@dusty4459 that's some funny 😂 shit lol!
@@dusty4459 That's Maverick after being demoted to cargo pilot. He's still hot dogging.
4:46 is the best in this video. Just shows you how much fun these guys are having flying these machines. So cool!
Nice timestamp
The lead in that two ship was absolutely hauling. Full
Burner nose at the dirt. The viper is one mean machine. Vermont 158FW.
Also would be fun photographing them
@@SidestickPilot And judging by the tail in the photo, he's doing that all while throwing a hang loose at the cameras
4:45 love how the f16s where pushing afterburner fully armed and still had time to look up and see the camera.
just goes to show the quick reaction times of a fighter pilot and being able to see things that easy at high speed!
Looked cool, incredibly unprofessional.
SSGT Larry Runk - Hooooah
@@DragNetJoe I dont think so. they know whats possible and what isnt..no pilot is going to risk crashing for a photo op..
@@DragNetJoe Lol, no.
If you can't look away for a moment and still fly whatever jet you're in then you shouldn't be flying a jet at all.
They are professional, they know what they can and cannot do and won't risk something stupid like crashing for a photo op.
These are simply amazing. Love the "hang loose" sign the pilot gives at 4:45. Stunning!
Please check out AXALP 2021 The Greatest AvGeek Show on Earth!!! Spectacular live firing by the Swiss Air Force! And I hope soon with the F22 Raptor
I love the F-16 pilot showing a thumbs up at 4:44.
Those are Vipers from the Vermont ANG the "Green Mountain Boys" based out of Burlington VT.
Bet he has a motorcycle? Bikers do this too.
Looks like he has the pinkie extended which would be "hang loose."
Theodore042 That’s what it looks like to me 🤙
Yeah...thats DEFINITELY hang loose...my girl caught it at full speed
That first F22 gets real deep in that canyon. Not afraid of its own shadow!
hahaha same with the F-18
I was thinking that too, he who goes into the canyon the deepest has the biggest balls! Lol!
F22 can't even see itself
You can hear on the radio too "500m at 500 knots"
The F-22A is not afraid of anything! ;)

back in 96 i was working a job on WPAFB and just happened to have a front row seat to a couple of fighters that were in a turning contest from the top of the desi building. one of the best days i had that ear :) cant imagine how much fun it was to simply be there in death valley getting to see all of this.
This is one of the best videos I have ever seen!
Thank you David
Agreed. Imagine being hunkered down and hearing the 🦅 screech. Good shit!
You should watch his video that he got his thumbnail from, that one is brilliant as well.
@kaotikdave84
Oye? Aka, what? Thanks
@@NODAK9 Haha that was intended for David. I fixed the reply under yours, I left a word out lol.
First of all I want to congratulate you for the incredible work done.
Being a professional photographer, the question arises of knowing what equipment, especially for the photographs they have used.
Thank you very much and again congratulations.
Thanks George.
I use a mainly a canon 1dx2 but for the photos in this video I used a canon 7d2 along side. The lens is a 300mm f2.8 with a 1.4 converter when needed.
@@DafyddPhillips My friend, thank you very much for your prompt reply.
It has been very useful for me to choose a camera for sports use in the not too distant future. From what I see Canon is not disappointing in this field due to its incredible focus.
Thank you again very much and my deepest admiration for your work.
Greetings from Argentina.
That's the coolest airshow I've ever seen and I grew up on Airbases as my father flew fighters... keep that shit coming!!! Awesome!
Thanks Ethan. More to come!! ✈️✈️
@@DafyddPhillips awesome. You are taking quality film with rapid pics to get jewels. I never knew this was a thing! Even the big bettys get a run! Thank you sir!
Tremendous video. A lot of great star wars canyon on RUclips, but this one is the best. Love the stills.
Thank you 👍
Looks insanely dangerous, I'm sure Tom Cruise was flying at least one
Lol I agree 😂
leokimvideo Tom likes to fly his P-51. He use to own a Gnat not sure if he still does. I was there when he bought it years ago. Came in his King air 90 to do the paper work.
Tom cruise could not see over the control stick without a booster seat.....
Talk to me, Goose!
Except, it's not a movie
4:13 has got to be one of the best fly by's I've ever seen. The F-16 is gorgeous and that thing was hauling ass
Full afterburner!
Absolutely incredible footage a credit too all involved and some of the best pilots is the USA, I also love the fact some of the pilots are looking at the photographers brilliant 🖖
Love the clicking sound of the motordrive of the camera! It really demands some skills flying these monsters so close to mountains! Beautiful but also haunting. They remind me of war, where they're made for I guess
F-15 is still a jaw dropping plane. I’d love to hop in the cockpit of one and take a crazy ride.
The only thing i think my body and mind could handle doing in one of those planes is letting loose a huge "WOOOOOOHOOOOOO!"
Wow, I wish I were retired or a professional photographer so I could get the time to go out there and feel it as well as see it. Thank you for the video, great job!
I'm in awe watching these fighters in these rocky mountains, Wow!!!
F15's are just monsters...looking forward to an F15X and hoping we buy a few more than 12. That tandem F16 pair in full afterburner was pretty wicked too. Amazing frickin photography though, whoa...
Love the F-15.
Awesome shots you guys made!!
i definitly like the one at 04:43. crazy dude put the hands off the insturments...
The F15s were pretty rare. You lucked out. Great stuff as always.
@Bobby Brady well where I'm from they are. All I get to see are F16, F18 and F35s. So put that in your pipe and smoke it.
@Bobby Brady it's all relative.
These things literally drift in a 3D space. It's insane how complex these machines are and all the punishment they take doing those maneuvers.
These pilots knows where they are heading while they never look at the place the plane go. It's mesmerizing.
I know it's old (1979), but boy that F-16 can turn and bank like no other, and that's with one engine and no thrust vectoring!
All the Gen 3 and 4s are the hottest. F2 , F4 , F5 , F14, F15 , F16
Mirage , Tornado , Jaguar , Harrier Lightning. Mm mm
Man, that was some fantastic photography. The aircraft were great, too.
Wow this is absolutely awesome! Thanks for this amazing video man!!! Insane filming and shooting
Cool to see AF-01 out there flying. I do loads calibrations on that particular jet for work.
It was great to see it, does it still fly?
@@DafyddPhillips It sure does! It's one of 2 loads instrumented flight test jets for the Air Force on the F-35 program.
This is the first time i see a Fouga CM.170 Magister and i just fell in love with it!
It reminds me of a ship that could belong in the sw universe
Bud Granley and his son do airshows in their Fouga...it's a nice bird!👍
F-15 in NASA livery. Sexy as hell. And Talons. And F-18s...Hell, aviation is just cool as hell in general :) What a stunning time and place to be at.
That stuff never gets old love that jet sound in the canyon!!!!!
Love the whole video, such quality capture of light, sound and action.
My favorite is the still of the F18 at 2:26, it looks like a majestic big cat with shiny fur...
Thank you 👍
The only way to get a selfie from the air, amazing work!!
As a Frenchman I did not expect to see a Magister! To make this air show in the valley of death is very beautiful, it would be necessary that they invite allied nations!
The Israelis used the Magister for ground attack.
The F-16 pilot is a freakin’ legend.
4:13 I agree
In 2001 post 9-11 I saw a sequential take-off of Virgina ANG F16 squadron at Richmond airport while sitting in a 737 waiting for our take-off slot. The first F16 did a mild 180 reversal after lifting off the runway. The second F16 cranked a tighter 180 reversal. The 3rd cranked even tighter. The 4th was inverted at 300 feet screaming back toward the start of the runway at full throttle afterburner! No doubt the 4th pilot was in a hurry to form up with his buddies.
He really is
Heck yea that was BAD ASS 🤙
Right on 🤙
One of the greatest videos on the internet. A true classic.
Thank you 😎👍
That background landscape is mesmerizing.
Bird watching at the highest level. Awesome place.
Most definitely ✈️✈️✈️👌
Love the still frames after each flyby. Subbed!
Thank you.
Appreciated 👍
Same
SUPERB work and the sound editing is absolutely amazing thank you as always for these wonderful videos!
Thank you.
Appreciated
