For anyone who flies this in DCS, they absolutely nailed that startup sound!
100%! 👍🏻
Agreed
DCS in general has such accurate sound design it always blows me away.
they missed a couple of subtle bits the whoooosh that starts when the engine begins turning and the howl is a bit artificial compared to the real thing but otherwise good
It sounds identical
"can i just leave?"
-Pilot
that sound never gets old
My computer when I startup Minecraft Java:
It's not even sound. It's....art.👍
I love the part at 0:17 where the hydraulic pumps start and the aircraft comes alive....
Im glad im not the only one.
Me 3
How professional they are working is really nice to see. Greetings from germany.
UNBELIEVABLY AWESOME !!...and The best looking fighter of all time!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Nahh, there are better looking fighters
Any DCS pilots here? Secretly feeling smug that I can startup and fly this bird in the cockpit (even though it's the F variant and not C).
I feel you completely
Sergeant , here bro what’s happening squad-mate?
what up man?!!!
*Starts blasting danger zone and gets to 30000feet before he realizes he forgot to turn on the OBOGS*
I downloaded the E&F NATOPS on my phone to see if their was any major differences, there isn't..... lol
Incredible capture! I was there that day! I really miss Wings Over Wine Country, I hope they bring it back.
Sonoma County Santa Rosa California I've been to a few and yes I miss them as well I'm on the east coast now
Damn! Just like morning on the flight deck. Hit chow soon as I get eating, flight quarters, flight quarters! Coming out of the crash shack hit with the sounds and smells of sea air jp5 and then hop on the p16 and head up to the bow! All flight deck personel must be in the proper flight deck uniform! Helmets on goggles down sleeves rolled down muster on the bow for fod walk down! Prepare for the 0815 launch! Start the hornets!
Thanks for your time out there
Thanks for your service. I remember waking up to the smell of omelets (best I've ever had) and JP5 on a crisp morning while these beasts moan to life on the flight deck, will never forget those beautiful moments.
"Heads up on the flight deck, props on the ROLLLLLLLLLL"
Very cool I've seen it a million times when I was patrolling the Flight line in the Air Force same procedures
I got used to seeing F4s and start carts back in the day! It looks so empty around the plane now!
Start carts and a plume of smoke that looked like a tire fire
6:22 Chief, remove the wheel chocks.
Copy
no way they made DCS an actual thing!
Never noticed the plane captains start hand signal getting faster as the engine starts.
Thanks to dcs i actually know exactly what they are doing and where the knobs and switches are 💁🏾♂️
DCS Players loving the APU starting sound
The jet said 🤷🏾♂️, imma head out
i repair and test the fuel controls for these. i could tell you all the pressures and flows that are going on in that startup lol
I flew one of those lol
How does an APU work?
Tyler Penberthy it does a spinny thing on the engines so they can go nyoom
I got time
Imagine flying this thing and get paid for it.
The sound of me turning on my ps4
sweet ride.
Wow, My best friend, I liked the video very much, thanks you for sharing, stay safe, stay blessed
0:59 any explanation for this sound
Not exactly how I do it but cool to see this online
What does the movement on the arm over the ellbow means when the guy passes the aircraft?
He's letting the pilot know to run the BIT (Built In Test) that will check all of the systems. You see the flight controls run through their test right after that.
what happened to the Tool pouches?...dey were fakin' awesome, T-handle the most dominant😎🤙🏼🤙🏼
Vortex generators winding up. Little girl wants to get air borne. Nice APU hum. Love my jets.
Rider on the storm. Lets rideeee
Sharing always 💯
What makes the lower pitched noise towards the end of each engine startup? That kind of mooing noise.
syngyne just the sound of the fuel igniting and spinning the fan over. The initial sound is the apu. The apu then spins the motor and once the fan speed reaches a certain speed the pilot advances the throttle to idle providing the ignition and sound you described
The sound of those inlets basically. That squared front leads to a more rounded tube to the intake which makes it sounds like a hum/moo. If you hear a 737 start-up you can kind of hear it but since the inlet is very short, it’s more of a vibration than anything
@@hoaxial2090 So you know the feeling? I remember cold mornings where I could feel that moaning of these F18s turning on from a football field away. When you describe it as a harmonic vibration it makes sense. That's what these videos sadly lack, the rumbling gut punch feeling in your lungs and in your brain.
amazing

Came here for the sound at 0:03
Just eargasmed ! Pure music! Love this beast✈🔝
Dcs needs to get ground crew like this
Soon (tm)
I'm curious, what's the type of light jet we see on the left besides the hangar ?
Looks like a Cessna citation
Citation Mustang
I've worked on EA-6B's on the flight deck and I play DCS world. It's close but not like the real thing. Real close tho.
Very good ！
Why did they fold the wings before taxiing? Seems rather redundant considering they'll be unfolding them again a few moments later.
I may be wrong , but I think they do that for a few reasons, when taxing out depending upon crosswinds during taxing, it kind of stablizes the jet during taxing so the plane doesn't tip if there is a strong crosswind doesnt push down on the wing, at the wing tip but pushes the air over the wing.
Standard Navy practice, it's part of the standard procedures. Has nothing to do with crosswinds. And.. you ain't going to flip a F/A-18 due to wind unless maybe a hurricane.
They do it for the same reason that they always have the tail hook down in pictures. To show that it is carrier capable.
there are probably multiple reasons but one of them being: folding the wings allows the nose wheel steering to go into high gain mode which lets the plane turn tighter on the ground
This doesn't look like V FA-122?
?...at 7:03 to see tail code and modex - NJ for FRS Pacific Fleet, 156 for modex range NJ-100 for the F model.
4:12 what is this? Idk what is the purpose of that, I've been thinking of that for a year now.
Those are the spoilers, meant to slow down the aircraft faster after it lands. after that, they put out the air refueling nozzle, which is used with fuel carrier planes so that the aircraft can refuel mid-air.
Which part of the plane??
@@Lost-sm2vl It's on the leading edge extension, the spoiler/air brake just goes up.
MARK ANGELO VINLUAN oh yeah that. Basically what the first guy said.
*_No brakes test?_*
Ángels on our shoulderd
Real start up at 0:59
ludeman the actual spoolup starts at 0:40 you idiot.
ludeman these engine must be spun to a minimum speed first. once the speed is maintained , ignition is turned on then once ignition deemed stable fuel is added. that is why it is a long start up
@@superskullmaster he's referring to when the AMAD disconnects in the startup sequence
At 0:59 you just hear the ATS disconnect,since the engine has a full cycle and it's running on it's own and producing electric power for the aircraft.
Professionals.
Nice
It will never be a F-14 on it's best day!
Same as my ps4 starting up
Oh hey i was at that airshow 😎👍
Antonio Talavera, I didn't see you there. You must have been imagining again. No need to front on the comments, it's ok if you can't afford it even though it's free.
@@chrismason8722 He probably was there. You just didn't see him.
Hi may I have a ride.
Eveeryday you have to do this, with or without enemy, a cold engine will get you nowhere.
imagine putting the engine in a car.

The ground crew have no legs
God that’s almost as sexy as a rb26

Never walk with your back facing the aircraft
Why?

Sounds like a x-wing at 1:00
Sound like X-Wings!
No, X-Wings sound like the Hornet

I am surprised that this aircraft has its own ignition system. I had expected small military aircraft are all dependant on stationary compressors for ignition. Why waste precious hull space and weight for something every base or aircraft carrier is equiped with?
*shrugs* even the SR-71 had no own ignitor so i assumed only helicopters had coz they are made to land everywhere even at places without a full maintenance infrastructure. Again learned something new. Still curious if this is a rare exeption or if every aircraft has its own ignitor.. startup clips like this are hard to find for military aircrafts.
All modern jets have their own APU that bleeds in air by itself. So it doesn't need anything else besides fuel to start up
Sr71 had an external cart to start it but most modern fighter act have an jet fuel starter or APU equivalent to start the acft as well as provide hydraulic/electrical power without the need of an external source or starting the engines
@@HotPasta2122 SR also needed an external unit to preheat the oil from solid to liquid before starting. Super high temp oil was too thick at ambient temp to flow.
All newer aircraft have APUs. The cart you are talking about are called "huffers" that push air into the engines to get them started. Those were used with older aircraft like the F-4 Phantom II, and the F-14 Tomcat, etc.
*_No brakes test?_*
Edwin Marquez don't need no stinking brakes
Watch at around 6:58 right before the nosewheel steering test.
