[@nowayatall4037]

Absolutely stunning video.

[@ErnestGutschikAviation]

Thanks a lot!

[@frederickk.larkin7823]

Very nicely done Ernest! Glad that I watched this well after I ate dinner. Cheers, Ted

[@ErnestGutschikAviation]

Hey Ted! Thanks for watching! :)

[@zed8083]

Phenomenal footage! I could watch all day long. Love the Heritage flight, especially at around the 15:45 mark where you can see and hear RAIN feathering the throttle with the reflection of the P-51 in his visor, and he never took his eyes off him. This, as well as the minor conversations we've had over the past week or so is enough for me to subscribe!! Thanks again for the uploads!! Btw, very well done on the edits too! Great vids!

[@ErnestGutschikAviation]

Thanks a lot! Yup, RAIN flew the Demo perfectly and yes, you can see the Mustang in the visor as they eyed the three passes on the heritage flight perfectly. Thanks for subbing ;)

[@malcolmcossar6447]

What a fantastic demonstration of not only the Awesome F16,but of the skill of the pilot's who fly this Great fighter!Wow!

[@ErnestGutschikAviation]

Thanks a lot! It was an incredible demo!

[@backburner9624]

Had to watch this again, just to get excited for this weekend coming up. @12:02 to @12:30 I can only imagine how loud that was for people doing regular day stuff lol

[@ErnestGutschikAviation]

Oh I can’t wait myself! Yes indeed lol. Must’ve freaked everyone out ;)

[@Dgunner22]

Very cool dual perspective of the f-16 and skilled pilot ....Thanks for sharing

[@ErnestGutschikAviation]

Thanks a lot!

[@danp1975]

Fantastic video.... great perspective on the pilot and his reactions (or lack there of!) just heavy breathing at times. Amazing.

[@ErnestGutschikAviation]

Thanks! Truly is amazing.

[@ybrik5937]

Enjoyed this vid Ernest! Great upload!

[@ErnestGutschikAviation]

Thanks a lot!

Shane and Ernest, rulers of the show

[@ErnestGutschikAviation]

Lol.

[@averyl7146]

Awesome video Ernest! Rlly cool to see rains point of view after acc seeing him at the airshow myself (from the ground).

[@ErnestGutschikAviation]

Thanks Avery!

[@MrEddieG420]

What did you do ask him to put the go pro in the cockpit for you ? What a great guy if he was nice enough to do that for you !

[@pullingweeds]

EddieG I think the Viper Demo team just does videos from the cockpit. Getting the video directly from them was the feat - but then again maybe the demo team is this generous. Their goal is to promote the USAF so I don't see why they would give problems.

[@ErnestGutschikAviation]

Some friends of ours called him over and my buddy had a Go-Pro on him so he spoke with RAIN to see if he would take it up in the cockpit during the Hour of Power Demo and he agreed. Very nice guy and big thanks to him for allowing this to happen.

[@Dgunner22]

At 17;44 you can see reflection of the P-51 Mustang on his Visor ... Very Cool

[@ErnestGutschikAviation]

That's right! Super cool indeed.

[@seanbara5210]

I could only imagine how nervous those pilots must get doing an air show demonstration. Their heart must be racing knowing that anything can happen, and they're performing in front of thousands of people.

[@ErnestGutschikAviation]

That is very true. But in the end they are all prepared for it. They go through countless months of training and it usually assists them very well for the show season ahead.

[@seanbara5210]

@@ErnestGutschikAviation true. and agree or disagree, the sound of afterburners at 4:16 is the best part of fighter jet demos

[@ErnestGutschikAviation]

@@seanbara5210 Agreed! Nothing beats the sound of afterburners! Its one of my favorite things to hear ;)

[@seanbara5210]

@@ErnestGutschikAviation ikr! lol, that feeling that makes your stomach just sink and your whole body shaking is the coolest

[@rickybrown5817]

how fast top speed km/h

[@MrEddieG420]

At airshow pilots are restricted from doing the full top speed of the aircraft. The demo teams keep it about 0.97 Mach just under the speed of sound. about 635 Knots across the ground. The top speed of the F-16 is Mach 2 plus or well over 1500 MPH.

[@ErnestGutschikAviation]

Yes, they had RAIN on the speaker to call out the speeds when he came by and did one of the high speeds from pulling down from a half cuban eight and he went to 0.96 Mach in about ten-fifteen seconds. Just unreal!

[@Nottsboy24]

OMG! Fantastic video ☺ i love it 👍:)

[@ErnestGutschikAviation]

Thanks a lot!

[@MetaliCanuck]

Ernest brother you have to get this years team to take your go pro up with them if possible. That 50th anniversary livery is the tits and that would look super awesome!

[@rickybrown5817]

double! thumbs up!

[@ErnestGutschikAviation]

Thanks!

[@rickybrown5817]

[@rickybrown5817]

Yup! :D

Amazing❣️🙏👏

Thanks!

[@jonathonmcrae5671]

That pass at 5:55 must have been insane...

[@ErnestGutschikAviation]

It was incredible!

[@jonathonmcrae5671]

@@ErnestGutschikAviation I hear the Thunderbirds are coming next year! Hopefully we get the F22 demo aswell. This year was a bit "quiet" in terms of afterburners. Hope to see more next year.
