      I'm 40 years old. I don't have many regrets, but one that stands out is not following my calling to be a pilot. My dad gave me the aviation bug and would take me flying remote control airplanes when I was a kid. I still remember how proud he was when I landed my plane for the first time by myself, I was still in elementary school I was roughly 7 or 8 years old. I can still smell the fuel, and see the grass. You must be very proud of your son, what a legend.

It’s the most exhilarating and impressive demonstration I’ve ever witnessed. Your chest is rattled by the engines, hearing muffled (definitely wear ear protection) and your heart pounding. If you ever have the opportunity, you must experience the greatest air superiority show in the world.

Maybe 15-20 ft off the ground and so close I remember thinking I could have reached out and touched the wing. Truly incredible aviators. Dust coming off the runway and then did a straight vertical pull up to 20,000. Insane pilots, nothing but respect for these guys and what they do.

Apart from his aviation creds, I was also impressed by his articulation, poise, and honestly, keen memory. There is a lot that the narrator says and he spoke it all without skipping a beat, seemed so comfortable and natural. Was also great to hear one of the pilots was from MN. Our entire home state was very proud of her. Very inspiring.

    6:59 Pilots steer ships, AVIATORS fly airplanes. Those men are Naval Aviators, the best flyers in the world, bar none.
    The F-18 Both the Legacy and Super hornet are insane aircraft. Imagine flying vertically upward.

    Sam, you slept through the good part!😂 You are living the dream, getting to experience this. I love the ending when Sam can barley walk and the pilot is still running up and down the ladder.😂 Great video.

    While the Blues only switched to the E/F model of the Hornet in 2021 the actual Super Hornet has been in the USN inventory over 20 years, keep in mind that the Blues hornets are some of the oldest in the entire fleet, but more than capable of performing this type of precision flying, and fortunately being just down the road from the USNA I get to see sometimes two or three times a year if they also perform over Baltimore or at Joint Base Andrews!

      Marines have never used the E/F model. They are AV-8B and Old C/D legacy hornet. Along with the F-35B now.

    Sam, the view of the sky spinning while the F-18 Hornet was performing the double 360 was so awesome, Dude. Oh, that's right; you slept through the double 360. Yeah, I'm a little GREEN. Good Job, Sam!!

    I'm guessing you didn't have a G suit on either? Good job! This had to be such an amazing experience. That was a super long G LoC. Nvm the ending answered my question lol No G suit!

    Great video. The Blue Angels just flew in Seattle and actually flew within about 200ft above my house. My wife and I were mesmerized looking up at these machines piloted by their talented operators.
