  • Some Strike eagle footage and photos taken at the Mach loop from the past three years. Hopefully we can get out to some bases and spend some time in the hills when lockdown ends soon.

    Best Ever Photography Ever! I got so emotional. What our fighters and pilots represent to me is so much more heartfelt than words I will ever have to express. Thank You for sharing your talent and photography expertise for someone who does not understand too much about anything, but knows she sure does love these sights and sounds. God Bless America.

    Love how some of the pilots approach with the mentality of Let's make this look cool AF for the guys on the hill.
    2:04 is the perfect example, he even tips his wing at the end, a definite nod to the watchers.

    "Past three years" that explains why I rememeber some of the stills. 3:00 is really one of a kind and I was shocked to see "the same situation" happening again. Look forward to your new pieces of superb work!

    That is one beautiful airframe........My buddy USAF Major flew these for 10 years and loved it out of the Pan Handle of Florida. We called him "Top Gun" used to drive him crazy, but he did have a good sense of humor. Unfortunately after he retired he gave flying up completely said he had the time of his life and will spend the time with his family. All the blessings to you throttle jockies...................Thanks again for the rush Dafydd.

    I am running out of words to praise you. My favourite part is between 03:37 and 03:50, that guy in his Orange jacket reminded me of Robert De Niro from The Deer Hunter. De Niro was with his gun and here that dude is with his Canon (looks like it...) Apart from the resemblances, the way the Eagle entering from the right side of frame is STUNNING !!! I will ogle at that sight for a lifetime.

    Another fantastic video Dafydd. This where photographers should come instead of hanging around the base at Lakenheath. That NATO badged plane has been in our airspace quite a lot this past fortnight. Its brilliant that you plant a flag so they know you are there. BTW Wales has the best terrain in the world for these low level flights (I maybe biased because I am half Welsh lol).
