She is a beautiful women. But when it comes to reflexes and endurance, males are better suited for combat. This is just another form of anti American sentiment that has permeated our country. It is not about ability and character anymore but gender and color ok skin. It is wrong. And it is laughable that people who push racism and sexism like this always spout Martin Luther King. He would be opposed to such liberalism

In older eras, the nation was deprived of the talents of so many women and people of color who were not able to develop those talents because they weren't the correct gender or skin color. A loss for them and for all of us.

The F-16 prototype, the YF-16 first flew in 1974 and the first pre-production FSD F-16A flew in 1976 or 1977. The F-16 wasn’t combat capable until 1981 when it entered service so no, not the 60’s.

[@IAM-hy3dd]

I attended this air show and really enjoyed your performance. My eldest son and his family attended also. My son’s dream was to be a pilot for the military from a very young age. He began working on making that dream a reality very early on. We enrolled him in the Civil Air Patrol as soon as they would accept him, he was able to get a good amount of time in the air, had flown an airplane before driving a car, he was set-up for private lessons and then the most devastating thing that could happen to his dreams happened... He experienced a spontaneous pneumothorax…and then another one several months later and then another about a year later. That ended all possibilities of him ever flying in the military. The devastation it brought him (and me for always telling him, “as long as you work hard,,dedicate yourself and remain disciplined…you can do or be anything you want in this life.” turned out to be the biggest lie I ever told my kids) but we both understand that for whatever reason, this was not the path he was supposed to take in life. But why did I mention that? Because by watching this video you made from inside the cockpit, I have a much greater appreciation for what is physically necessary to do what you do. You definitely showed me how important having good lungs is to be able to fly these jets. It is one thing for a doctor or a recruiter or such to tell you why something like a pneumothorax during teen years can be too risky to accept into a flight program, but actually seeing how much of the actual flying is dependent on healthy, fully functioning lung function really gives a much better understanding and acceptance of why he could no proceed down that path. I really, really get it now. So, not only was this video you made entertaining, it also brought upon some understanding that I had never fully grasped before. So, thank you! I know that what I just shared was not the intent of your video, but wanted to share the unintended effect that this video had on me. It has really helped in ways I can’t really put into words. Anyhow, Thank you again! Keep up the great work!

[@quickdeuce]

GOD bless YOU and your boy for trying. His dream was so close BUT GOD has a different plan for him.We must hope he accepts that even though HIS DREAM vanished. We hope he steps out and does whatever other path he chooses with the same determination to excel he did to fly in America's airships. He can still be among the ground crew that keep America's war planes at the ready for pilots. Thank you for sharing this story.

Wow! She has skills, and obviously fantastic training. I flew on a commercial jet a couple of years ago from Seattle to San Francisco and as I was boarding I noticed that two women that looked a lot like Rebel were the pilots( except they both had their long blonde hair down and not braided), and I thought, how cool is this; even though it's not that common, but becoming more so over time, I felt so comfortable about and even excited about my flight. It was so very, very windy arriving at SFO and the aircraft was rolling significantly on approach and the ladies didn't mess around and set that plane down pretty hard in response I'm guessing. I felt glad somehow they were piloting the plane. Some people prefer female doctors because they are thought to be more attentive and have more attention to detail; I think I may prefer female pilots for the same reasons! Great video!

I like this video because it shows you the real cockpit language and if you look into the reflection of the visor you can almost see what she is seeing. Plus, the breathing control through out the whole video. That takes training. And the trust that the Flight crew has on the pilot in the final stop, EPIC!

[@patpathinayake3586]

Super demo from the Pilot and the ground crew, PERFECT RETURN. Pitot tube was about an inch away from the marshaller's chin. Gosh he was brave. Fabulous Pilot. Wish her the very best for the future.May she gets a rapid promotion ASAP.🚀🚀🚀 Thank you all for your hard work ✈✈✈

I think they took a little license for a photo op on that one lol, the wheel was already chocked when the camera panned around. The first approach they showed was likely more accurate and close enough anyway. Great job by all of them. 🙂

... 47:38, what else to say... that's the true meaning of '... I'm 100% trusting In you'. FANTASTIC, the whole package: the lady, the Viper, the display, the choreography, the filming, the helmet. Thanx so much from Italy.

[@Viperace16]

I thought the exact same thing! You can't stand that still unless you are 100% sure. Amazing!

[@leslievey8453]

The helmet ?

[@francescofissore161]

@@leslievey8453 ... yes. An old good HGU-55/P in its basic shape 95% unchanged or altered, a quite rare thing these days. Just a portion of black adhesive tape in somehow a geometric pattern and addition of the unique 'Combat Edge' oxygen hose, running from the mask to the inside bladder that is between helmet and head's back. Its virtually unchanged appearance is somehow (to me at least) a very welcomed sight and reminescent of the glorious days back then, when I was enthusiastic collector of aviators' helmets.

[@victorfrankenstein50202]

Holy crap, I get exhausted just watching her fly. We don’t realize how much stress and strain these pilots put their bodies through during these amazing flights. Thank you to this brave pilot, and all the pilots who fly these powerful jets.

So proud to see this female pilot do such an amazing job. She made everything look so effortless and didn't look at all fazed as she did the 360 degree rolls. She looked relaxed and in control the whole time. Glad that there are starting to be more woman pilots. My dad was a Petty Officer 2nd Class in WWII, and I have great respect for all of our men and women in uniform! I also love the discipline. I was proud to see the pilot and ground crew salute each other at the end. They know this is serious business, even if it's a demonstration flight.

My 7 year old slight plane fanatic l, she loves old war birds. The B-17G is her favourite - considering we live in England its an interesting choice but we saw her fly one day and now my baby is hooked. At the start of the video doing all your checks she was like wow. I want to help make planes work. Then you got in the seat and clipped up and she thought you were just going to sit in it. Her little mind is blown. "I can fly a really fast plane? I thought only a man could fly a fast plane." You've really inspired her rebel.

She's working her ass off in that cockpit. This gives an idea of how physically exhausting it is to be a fighter pilot. Now, imagine having to endure this while trying to outthink/maneuver an adversary while they're trying to shoot you down. This woman (and all other fighter pilots) is BADASS!

[@steveperreira5850]

Man and woman, fighter pilots are one thing for sure when the war comes, future prisoners of war. They are totally obsolete. They impede the mission, the drive up costs, And they have extremely limited situational awareness. I know these things, because I’m a pilot also. There is no future for fighter pilots. Drones and automated combat equipment, artificial intelligence, it’s here already and these people should have been retired 20 years ago. Absolutely looks like fun. Have fun on your own dime, not degrading our military preparedness, because that’s exactly what all fighter pilots are doing.

This video was amazing. Just got through watching an interview with "Rebel" that was terrific. Then watched this one. Great 1-2 hit for aviation. And also great to realize that "Rebel" is not there because she's a female, but because she has what it takes. BRAVO!!!

Hey, John Muir why not just kiss her ass, I am sure that Rebel would disagree with your statement. USAF 1964-1968 held over 4 for the TET offensive. Crew Chief C-141A and later C-130E and finally left the USAF 1990 guess I just liked my job. As far as flying goes the desire to be the best is in a lot of people.

i know nothing about flying, but the first minutes of strapping in alone gave me anxiety. pilots are tough cookies just to be able to not skip on the routine like this, felt like forever just watching...and she had not touch the controls yet not for clostrophobic people either kudos to you miss and all the ladys and gents in this field

[@ektaron]

@@whatsup9260 - Why don’t you go for a flight with your local aero club? They are all over the world and offer rides in propeller planes, it’s very inexpensive (compared to what most people spend on a night-out in a city). Aerobatics is an experience like no other (and I’ve been climbing, sailing, diving, running, making films… a lot of variety). The strapping and gas supply to the G-suit (compressing the body, so your brain maintains as much blood as possible) and mask are super important, especially on a flight like this (a demo), when you can’t pause for a buckle adjustment or to roll up the sleeves. In essence, it’s just about making yourself as comfortable as possible in all positions and G-forces, eliminating all distractions, to focus on the flight (and fun). Not dissimilar to how you adjust a car’s driver position (in a good car with a good seat). Just more straps. 😃 Claustrophobic - not at all! The F16 has an extremely open feel to it, there is no forward “A-pillar”, the view is fantastic, it’s more like a flying carpet feel, very open. Very few planes have such a great view.

Everything about this video is sheer perfect production. No goofy music, sound effects, etc. Rebel is perfect and professional. Although I'm former NAVY and was on the USS Enterprise, I used to watch Tomcats all day long. So I'm a huuuge Tomcat fan. I also thing the F16 is without a doubt a beast of a plane. Fast, agile, and very formidable. With that said, we're all on TEAM U.S, so I strongly support all of my military brothers and sisters. Excellent video, excellent flying.
