Blue Angels UNBELIEVABLE Footage | Full Air Show View From the Boss's Jet

[@robertdavis5753]

America’s finest ! Navy Vet and proud

[@GUERRO06]

I' m USAF....

[@derwinjax]

My favorite part was seeing number 4 pulling it in tight after a nice turn to also help slow his speed, then with the help of the speed brake and pedal slide gets right back into the slot. (36:00) I don’t know how many times I rewound that part of the video. Love it!

[@RandyDuffey]

I've watched that part over and over

[@ShadowHawk4219]

This is mind blowing, Incredible, and beautiful.Watching this on a 32inch 1080p in full screen mode. I take my hat off to these pilots. The concentration to pull this off time after time is off the charts.

[@NathanBallardSaferFlying]

This is the best aviation video ever. I was in an ATP class with 3 hornet pilots, two weeks ago. Big time respect for Naval aviators. 👊👊👊

[@bigwaidave4865]

I lived in the Marina just off the green for over 20 years so I estimate , including practice days which started on Thursday, I must’ve seen the Blue Angels fly/perform close to or over 100 times. Each was spectacularly exciting👍👍 I think I’ve seen it commented that fleet week San Francisco is their favorite airshow to fly; as no other city can compete with the beauty of the San Francisco Bay.

[@Dstew57A]

Wow. Just think of the energy these pilots use just to focus..that alone would be crushing. No wonder they have to be in tip top shape. Bravo..what outstanding flying

[@roberth6375]

Always so interesting how much bouncing around they do. Incredible footage 🤘

[@ToddVogeHome]

Such a great view. Thank you for sharing. It would have been even better if we had Boss' communications as he called out the maneuvers as well. But I'll take what I can get and watch these awesome pilots do things most people can only dream of. And they GET PAID FOR IT!!!!! 🙂

[@BayAreaTraveler]

Awesome footage. I was there that weekend. Wish the audio from Boss Doyle was available to accompany the footage.

[@ron1179]

This is really spectacular!!! Absolutely love this perspective of the performance! Thank you for posting!

[@BlueAngelPhantoms]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@supreme2544]

Believe it, your watching the best pilots in the world.

[@FXIIWrath]

As a SF Bay Area native who has gone to SF Fleet week every year since 2008. I never knew how much airspace the Blue Angels used for their performance. They cover a very large area.

[@Jamez3l]

They require a 5 mile radius around show center, among other requirements

[@cs8862]

The Angels have ALWAYS been my favorite Aerobatics team. Love it! AWESOME VIDEO!

[@JasonMcLemore]

I LOVE how #4 comes burnin in to rejoin after the 6 plane cross and hits the brakes to get in position perfectly.

[@BlueAngelPhantoms]

It’s phenomenal precision for sure!

[@craigb4449]

I rewatched that part five times! So cool! She nailed it 36:00

[@siouxperb5570]

[@davidrichter57]

Not just the speed brake, but also a bit of crabbing left/right to bleed off that last bit of excess airspeed. Such deft control, I'm in awe.

[@kurtedwards3213]

Finally cockpit view of the Bay Area fleet week from the blue angels 😇 thank you ❤

[@KenNewberry]

Thanks Ryan for posting! Shows how much ground they cover during the show.

[@BlueAngelPhantoms]

My pleasure, Ken. The Double Farvel in this particular video blows my mind. Just unreal. Cheers!

[@applejacks971]

Watching the transition from Diamond to Echelon Parade formation and back is insane! Seeing how they fit in to their slot while in the turn was amazing!

[@Fze5656]

Timestamp?

[@FrancisDrake-q3j]

I've sailed out to 'the box' many times to watch the Blue Angels during Fleet Week. Always a proud treat!

[@MariaCisneros-xb4xt]

Incredible view!!💙🇺🇸🙌 grateful to have a blue bird's view

[@BH530711]

On a 1-10 ‘Coolness Scale’, this is, at the very least, a 15! 🙌🏻

[@mikelastname]

I'm only 2 minutes into this, but already I can say this is the finest formation flying video I have ever seen, and I have seen a lot. Watching the control surfaces was particularly interesting and seeing how the rear plane sideslips was amazing. Like all formation teams, they are amazingly talented, but this serves to highlight just how amazing!

[@Dstew57A]

Wow..completely understand now why these pilots need to be in good shape..the focus needed to fly alone to fly like this would be crushing…bravo

[@dwightpitman4608]

For a few moments, #2 & #3 wingtips are less than 6” apart. Awesome.

[@HubertCoudurier-wf4nj]

a fantastic video which shows us the wonderful work of the pilots , from the inside ! great !

[@DickieDelouise]

This is fantastic!! The Blues always were and always will be my favorites😊

[@tonyjensen7209]

As a civ, getting this perspective on all the micro-regroupings or tightening/loosening of the formation is incredible! Only been to 1 airshow and it was way better than any heavy metal concert! 🤘

[@Voncid]

Thanks' for the ride alone ,great precise flying 😎

[@rcom9880]

Never thought much about the team dealing with the boss's wake turbulence until now!

[@micahgreene4573]

I was just thinking the same thing. That guy directly in trail of Boss is in a life and death struggle, lol.

[@teeh917]

These are truly the best of the best. #FlyNavy ❤

[@patvoorhees3491]

2:08pm. Amazing the skill of these pilots!!!!

[@BlueAngelPhantoms]

Couldn’t agree more!

[@maurice5977]

This was an awesome perspective bar none !!!

[@dmunaviator5208]

Great perspective. They fly with GoPros all the time… a full forward looking view would be awesome just so we could see the rejoins and how much rudder work there is. Thanks for posting. Love this channel Dave

[@BlueAngelPhantoms]

Thanks, Dave! I’d love to see a forward facing camera as well. Especially on the Solos!

[@AuntieBrennie]

@@BlueAngelPhantoms That would be Groovy and Totally Tubular! B~}

[@drjbraun]

Outstanding formation flying ,and over such a fantastic backdrop. Wow. The #2-#3 planes seemed locked to the lead in the diamond formation.

[@johnwoodall3791]

This always makes me listen to a song which is The Boys are Back In Town and let's not Forget the Girls. Pretty Awesome People. Really out there Unique Flying Skills On Display, Absolutely Brilliant.

[@ren212f4]

At 2:20 there's literally like a foot between 2 and 3 wing tips. Amazing precision.

[@Nate_Higgins]

So mesmerizing to watch. I don't know that I remember seeing that dirty loop before. Loolks like some serious Gs at the bottom of that vertical break. Super impressive flying as always. Fly Navy!

[@danieldicesare831]

Best show on planet Earth. Nothing else comes close.

[@P51]

FREAKING AWESOME!

[@BlueAngelPhantoms]

[@DevelDogg48]

24:30 You can see #3 giving a bootfull of left rudder on the rejoin to slip the jet and slow down. So cool.

[@phillipjohnson8241]

I've seen the Thunderbirds & Blue Angeles twice in Knoxville Tennessee. They must put restrictions on them in Knoxville because you can see them breaking the speed of sound at shows over water.

[@Spin-Drift-Ballistics]

Cast this one onto your big screen and enjoy 😊😁😊 It'll make you proud to be an American. While we still have an America...

[@scottmeyer9196]

Awesome!!!

[@ericcasabar3447]

My daughter just got accepted to the support and maintenance team for the Blue Angles

[@twisantigo]

This is insanely awesome!! What year team is this?

[@BlueAngelPhantoms]

This is the 2019 Saturday demo over San Francisco. Glad you enjoyed it!

[@SplashJohn]

Very interesting event starting at 6:39. In preparation for the Diamond Dirty Loop (which is a loop performed with landing gear and tail hook down), Boss commands "Boards" at 6:39. (‘Board’ is the navy pilots' term for the air brake, which extends up from the fuselage between the twin tails. The team uses boards to slow down to 250 knots, which is the max speed at which landing gear can be lowered.) It takes only 1 second for the boards on #2 and #3 to extend partially and stop moving, and then at 6:43 their boards continue extending to the full position by 6:44, and remain fully extended until at least 7:05 (when the landing gear is lowered). But watch carefully the board on #4 (the slot pilot, directly behind the camera aircraft). Instead of starting to extend at 6:39 like the others, #4’s board doesn’t start extending until 6:41. At that time it extends only partially and then retracts back down completely by 6:43 (while the others' boards remain extended). At 6:46 #4's board begins extending again, but by this time #4 is moving forward in the formation (due to not slowing as much as the others) and has to drop down from the formation to maintain safe clearance from Boss (the camera aircraft). At 6:48, you can see #3 pilot’s head turn further to his right as he notices #4 *way* out of position. In response, #3 immediately maneuvers laterally to his left, giving #4 more space. #2’s head also turned as he noticed #4 out of position, and he maneuvered a bit higher, but not laterally like #3. By 6:55, #4 has undoubtedly already reported his situation to the team, because #2 and #3 start maneuvering back to their normal positions. #4 is now slowing more than the others, which results in him dropping back quite a bit from formation by 7:05, when Boss commands "Gear down" (for the dirty loop). #4 doesn’t return to his normal position until about 7:23. What does this all mean? Mechanical issue? Pilot error? Heck if I know. I only started looking at this closer because I saw #3 suddenly maneuver laterally out of formation for no apparent reason.

[@fgaviator]

Great pilots! ✈ "Pilots?" "Naval aviators!" "Ooh." 😊

[@thereissomecoolstuff]

San Fran fleet week is very cool. Unfortunately not as cool as Seattle. Thanks Ryan it’s fantastic.

[@mikedunker7354]

AWSOME

[@marleysmommy]

Was this out of Moffett Field Mountain View, California which is very close to san fran? My dad was stationed there for years so as a kid we saw the blue angels every year. Go Navy!

the whole demo from the boss's undercarriage.....sweet

[@damienmilk3025]

Fantastic perspective, can anyone tell me what the three lights on the nose gear below the landing light. Thanks.

[@DevelDogg48]

AoA lights for the carrier LSO to observe while on final. They can see if the aircraft is on speed, slow, or fast and relay what the pilot needs to do to maintain glide slope to the deck.

[@damienmilk3025]

@@DevelDogg48 Thanks so much, I had no idea.

its crazy these guys walk back to their cars and drive home after doing this.

Great footage! Is this footage the same as the new IMAX film about the Blue Angels to be released in May?

[@siouxperb5570]

No, these are legacy hornets, so a few years older.

I haven't watched it yet. But I can tell you it's not real just a couple of planes dragging mirrors behind them. Until they invite me up for a ride. I’m sticking with that story.
