I love love love the fact that they salute the pilot before he takes off; fore he may not return. Total respect for our boys serving our country and keeping us free.
The crew chief's goodbye salute is probably the single coolest military tradition. Edit: "Wow, 2k likes!" -literally every lonely RUclips commenter who gets likes 🤡
Easy to be joyful when you are paid to play with hundreds of thousands of other people's tax dollars to look cool. The cost of these practice runs for the sake of air shows....disgusting.
@maemae1752 No. I would rather they use all that money and manpower to attend to the many projects that this country needs to improve infrastructure, education, and the needs of the general taxpaying public. If they were doing those things, in uniform, imagine the fidelity and respect they would earn. Those are currently pieces of the military success puzzle that are missing. Want more people to sign up of their own free will? Give them a mission of integrity and role that garners real respect.
This is so cool. I just can't imagine getting up every morning and doing what you love to do every day. Whether you're on the ground or you're flying a F16
The dude pounding his chest in the jet was the most masculine thing I've ever seen. It must be a hell of a feeling having that 50 million dollar jet engine under your ass, and the firepower to take out a small city by yourself, leaving nothing but scorched earth in your wake.
Best video of the day! My dad was a USAF MP, but his favorite job position after boot camp was signaling outgoing fighter jets in Saudi Arabia & Kuwait. Plus, my husband’s great uncle was the longest held “civilian” POW in Hanoi. Now, there are parts of his story we can’t share as it’s still classified info, but the most interesting part is that he was fighting in the war when his plane was shot down. It was just his day off, so he offered to do a “beer run” only to be shot down & captured on his way back. It’s why he’s listed as a “civilian” Him, John McCain shared a cell wall & communicated using Morse Code.
My grandson just joined the Air Force and seeing this respect between brothers brings tears to my eyes . Besides my husband is a Marine. Without them we wouldn’t have the freedom in our country we have . Don’t let anyone take that away . These guys are true hero’s ! May God be with you all !!!
I’m a contractor for cargo industry (aircraft mechanic). The ramp guys here do the push back and Marshall the plane out. Some of these guys here be extra creative with their moves as well and it’s always entertaining to watch what they got at times. My other full time job I’m an aircraft mechanic for a commercial airline. I’ve never seen ramp guys here do anything fun.
I used to live near Langley down in VA. People who would visit would ask me if the sound of jets on their training runs ever bothered me because it was a multiple time a day occurrence. My response was always "Nope. That's the sound of our freedom." Much respect for the men and women who put everything on the line to keep us safe and free!
Well hopefully we still do there's so much going on in the military right now it's hard to say how good it is with the things that Joe Biden has allowed to get put in our military
the pilot and groundsmen just got special bond like the perfect quote... wouldn't go quietly into that goodnight, will not parish w/o a fight, you can be my wingman and I'm your huckleberry
I just want to say its so good to hear Wolf's voice again, even if it is just in an outro. Im loving this channel and its good to catch up on my EFAP lore. Keep it up Massives!
I've always liked how the Air Force puts the rank and name of the plane's Crew Chief on the plane as opposed to the Navy that puts the pilot's name on the plane. It's just mad respect to the Airmen that keep that aircraft flying. I love it.
Their names on that plane they service is more important to the crew than any medal!!! Thanks to all the men/women that keep our Air Force in the air. Even I feel pride when I see this 😊😊🇺🇸🇺🇸
I have a friend who was deck crew on an aircraft carrier. Pilots are officers so they had to be saluted before taking off. Deck hands also gave them the finger as they left the deck.
@@user-oi1ce3wl6cnah bud, this is what happens when you teach 18-22 year olds to take apart and put together a 35million dollar killing machine. These crew chiefs are assigned an aircraft when they arrive at their job. Most will stay with that single aircraft and deploy into combat with it. What you see are young men with confidence in their ability, pride in their country and the ability to enjoy the work. The pilots love the dances. It’s a tradition. Someone so confident that takes pride in their job is dancing up to tell them “you have my bird and she will hunt.” The ones who dance and have secret salutes with the pilots are usually the best of the best and prove it every day. The fact that the pilots give it back means these crew chiefs are trusted. Don’t be fooled by the smiles my friend. The same teeth that make their silly smiles can and sometimes do bite whole countries in half.
@@rvtech101 I worked with the crew chiefs (airplane lead mechanic), engine shop, pilots and command (the people who decide what aircraft, where and how often they want to fly). I would put it all together for the command staff, let them fight over resources, assets and air time then publish the results. It was a great job because I got to tell the highest ranking people on the base no. “No, sir you can’t fly on Thursday.” “No, ma’am you cannot hold 3 reserve aircraft for training during an active deployment cycle.” And watch them eat their ego and try to play nice…great job. Thanks for the kind words and the support.

Never get tired of seeing it
The pilots are badass …. Doing this before going Mach 3 ……
Deck dance... I love it!!! The claw, heart, fist pumps, I love you sign language, as they fly off. 😊❤
So cool!
The emotional connection between the pilots and ground crew is palpable. The bond is real and absolute.
That my friends is the energy that wins wars
Well, that heart combined with cutting-edge technology in our weaponry pretty much makes it a lock. Unless the politicians decide to get involved...

Love getting a Glimpse of them and the Customs between the Ground Crew and Pilots.

Something to think about, the Pilot is trusting his life to that young enlisted man, and the enlisted man trusts the pilot with HIS plane...

This is a performance team, they do this for training and shows, its insanly dope to watch and arguably one of the coolest jobs to be in
ATCs and the Pilots do this everyday in their normal work. The ATCs get bored, this makes the day more lively.
Most units have a signal between pilots and ground crew. I was in 5 and all of us did this after every launch
