Flying a Learjet with F-5 Supersonic Fighter Jets

[@beefyiceman94]

A Starship, F-5's, S.211's, and of course your awesome L-39, your living the dream man!

[@hm250]

Don't forget working with Sheep!

[@brainyhead1]

Ok, we are going to need more F-5 footage! 💯

[@lylemorse6959]

Hello Matt, I am sure that you love flying in and out of Alpine, and up around the Tetons. The natural beauty of WY, UT and ID are beyond describable. I live vicarioulsy through your videos and hope at some point to begin flying again here in Jackson.

[@leejennings8456]

I stayed in a motor home park across the highway from Alpine Airport 2 years ago. Being a long time pilot I was envious of anyone that is lucky enough to live there. My dream place.

[@ryanhewett1663]

I haven't checked in on your videos in a minute and this video was top notch today! Thank you.

[@geddon436]

It's great life when you are rich.

[@handlemonium]

Dude it's privelidge for sure which gets you to reputation and opportunities and eventually wealth. It's just MUCH HARDER without being born into or drifting away from that initial leg-up early on in life.

[@andrewwilliams9419]

nice comment..now get back to work!

[@JoshuaAmaro]

The most American video I’ve seen the week, put a smile on my face

[@clarencewiles963]

Matt I am fascinated that oxygen container is amazing. The great group of people who have worked with you are so passionate about the importance of the work! And even the Sheep 😊😊

[@shawnzfpv]

Dang Mig 28s :)

[@paxtonn3167]

So freakin cool. I used to live in the 2 story home next to the last hanger on the left, closest to the palisades. serious flashbacks seeing this. Thanks for sharing!

[@RobertsWorkbench2023]

Anybody else ever notice how an S.211 looks like the lovechild of a T-2 Buckeye and a T-45 Goshawk? Pretty cool seeing one in US Navy trainer colors. Looks like a great place to fly.

[@blueyonder360]

Long time viewer, first time commenter…my family has rented a hangar condo/home at Alpine in July. I’ll be flying in our 1966 Piper Cherokee 140/180 from Denver to fly my uncle and Neisse and nephews over to site see in Yellowstone. Would be cool to see the jet flying in person.

[@mrMankx]

Great fun!

[@michaelkim3432]

Hey Matt - You are living all of my aviation fantasies!! I stopped training mid-way thru getting my IFR ticket, life and time just got in the way. But thankfully I can see what I'm missing by watching your vids! So is jumping in the Bonanza feel like a big step back now?

[@joshuaowens4797]

What about the Learjet???

[@tomnorman2668]

Love this flying!!!

[@ur_a_buS]

Incredible.

[@cosmodog4845]

Thanks Matt, great content.

[@akjoe_fpv]

At $4500 per hour in the L-39, I can only dream!

[@cwr8618]

but think, you'll have the experience of flying a real jet. aside from select military folks, not a lot of people can experience that. I'd say it's worth it

[@alexenns3203]

Matt! I think you need an F-5 after 500 hours of L-39 time lol

[@user-vc7ep7xj7s]

Cool, but how did you mange to integrate MSFS 2020 in this video?

[@shaunroberts9361]

I would just love to fly in one of those aircraft. What a kick that would be.

[@jacksonwiebler3153]

Any information on how to contact the owners of the f5s ? Have access to a CF-5 and would love to set something up with them.

[@bana002]

Plz, whats landing in 1:42 - 1:58

[@cybeliometalbest25]

Finally a video where the soundtrack isn't Top Gun.

[@incredifall]

I like it!

[@Hondaridr58]

Wow, Mig-28's too?? That's rare.

[@viperq]

lol

[@jonasmith7797]

You guys gonna be flying those f5’s at alpine on the 4th this year Seen them fly a couple years back for the 4th and was in awww

[@MrJalyles]

I kept looking for you to fly over close to me in Gadsden so I could get some pictures of the little jet.

[@DanFrederiksen]

Yeah jets can move but a modern light jet could have the same performance for a fraction of the cost. A 2 seater could weigh less than 10% of the L39. It's a cast iron skillet.

[@freezer4230]

Tell Bones that Freezer says Hi.

[@cornbread83]

Are the ejection seats in the L39 hot?

[@usairforceflyboy]

Where are you guys based in Wyoming? Are you going to be attending AirVenture this year?

[@Pecetos]

I have been wondering this for some time now. Do You have pirotechnics in the seats ? could You eject if need be ? Or did they get disarmed and removed to not let civilians have explosives ?

[@madmaxthemotomutt6464]

Just some information…. A guy was just fined over $1000 for SAVING a bison calf from a river…. The charge was something like “disrupting the circle of life” or some crap like that! Awesome content and great video

[@n1msu]

All the best man with your new business venture. I wish I didn't live in England though! A bit too far away!

[@michaelpowell775]

I live in England too, but i think if I want to learn to fly Matt's L-39 the air ticket to Wyoming will be by far the cheapest part of the bill :)

[@gewglesux]

This Yank Loves England! BTW you guys can have Harry and Meagan back now... we've had enough of " them lot"

[@FallenPhoenix86]

@@gewglesux That's ok, you can keep them... was bad enough having to take Piers Morgan back.

[@gewglesux]

BWhahahhha nice one!!@@FallenPhoenix86

[@Adair9800]

Are these ex Canadian RCAF F-5s? How many are owned privately, in Canada or the U.S.? Or T38s?

[@bernardanderson3758]

Matt I love to come out and fly the A-36

[@samiab6077]

can you eject or has it been disarmed?

[@chrislarson2037]

STARSHIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@mattb9371]

Matt….how can I get info about coming out there and taking lessons? I fly a Cirrus SR22T…but always like learning and training…

[@Scott-ol9zs]

never seen the Learjet

[@charlesheier277]

The mig !!!

[@JSFGuy]

Very good, I did see a European team actually stall the L39 as a demonstration. I do prefer my EA300 aerobatics.

[@glenlawrance5570]

Do you plan to do the Fly the STAR WARS Canyon Run sometime?

[@gewglesux]

Damn kids with their noisy Jets! wonder what the HOA says about Matty coming in at 2AM!!

[@mattguthmiller]

There’s one guy…

[@gewglesux]

@@mattguthmiller HA! Love the stuff man!!!

[@salimlebboukh1800]

How can I test fly this plane jet fighter knowing that I don't know how to fly a plane

[@lindawilkins6075]

Matt a couple of questions. Did you look at getting an F-5E and if not why not? How does the L-39 compare to the F-5E? Love the videos. My cousin has a home up in Star Valley which is one valley over from Jackson.

[@remingtonaircraftoperation5954]

F5E is much faster and powerful. It has a much higher stall speed and would be way more expensive to maintain. Parts are harder to find because there is fewer of them left, and the L39 is more practical in every way

[@WarrenHudson-AU]

The Beechcraft Starship appearance doesn't get a mention?

[@rexgrange9354]

Isn’t that a T-38 Trainer jet?

[@kevindennert1646]

Looks like F-5f. I thought the same thing at first but the F-5's have a missile rack on the wing tip whereas the T-38 does not. Another difference is the wing meeting the fuselage. Good catch though.

[@brianirby9595]

I was wondering the same thing. Because it has a T38 nose.

[@paramtrx9558]

That what I thought too.. f5's are single seat

[@krislhull]

@@paramtrx9558 The F-5B and F-5F, as well as the CF-5D are all two seat, another giveaway that these are F-5s is the drag chute... The T-38 is not equipped for a drag chute. Then there are the Intakes... If you look at the front of the intakes, they are vertical on the F-5, and angled forward on the T-38. These are F-5s

[@oubrioko]

It's an F-5B which has similar dimensions to a T-38, but has more powerful engines, larger intakes, and can carry armament. The original F-5A (single seat) and F-5B (dual seat) _Freedom Fighter_ is a lightweight fighter based on the T-38 _Talon_ dual seat trainer. They were all built on the same assembly line in Hawthorne, California by *Northrup.* Five years later, Northrup introduced the improved F-5E (single seat) and F-5F (dual seat) _Tiger II_ as a larger more capable successor to their smaller _Freedom Fighter._ Essentially, the *T-38* _Talon_ supersonic trainer is to the *F-5A* & *B* _Freedom Fighter_ is to the larger *F-5E* & *F* _Tiger II,_ what the *YF-17* USAF LWF demonstrator is to the *F/A-18A-D* _Hornet_ is to the larger *F/A-18E* & *F* _Super Hornet_

[@robinkoenig]

How much was the L-39? Did it come as you see it in the video or did you paint it and add avionics?

[@paulydltvideos]

When you thought it was a flight simulator at first

[@badgumby9544]

They look like T-38's to me. Not F-5's

[@ironroad18]

They look like F-5Bs, which look very similar to the T-38. The F-5B had a similar nose aoa probe to the T-38, but had wingtip station pylons. Normally early F-5A, B, and C, models had wingtip tanks installed. Twin seat F-5s are very rare, especially F-5Fs. There are some

[@BlueLightningHawk]

Let me just whip out my infinite wallet of money really quick to pay for this hobby, oh wait...

[@elliotcurrie7143]

Rich people while the world burns....

[@stevefranseen1905]

We just not going to talk about the Starship?

[@asksteevs]

I wanna talk about the Starship.

[@Adair9800]

Beech (Raytheon) bought almost all of the existing Starships from their owners and had them destroyed. I am guessing this could be the only one remaining.

[@Devil515151]

What airspeed over the Grand Tetons? 400 knots? Last I checked it was 250 knots below 10,000'. Follow the rules rich kid. They apply to you too!

[@mattguthmiller]

How high do you think the Tetons are?

[@allisonmcewen9771]

they r t38 talon jets not f5s either way still dope

[@mattguthmiller]

You really think I don’t know what airplanes were in my flight huh?

[@lulapilot]

click bait, hardly saw any Learjet with F5 ! Mostly L39 and a few shots with a S211.

[@v00taladjentprincess69]

when you squawk 7500

[@speedygonzales9090]

Are those F-5s or T-38s??? They look like T-38s to me.

[@kevindennert1646]

See my previous comment. they are F-5's.

[@lgchris1]

"If you eject"? Your seat has a rocket under it? FAA know about this?

[@Dan007UT]

Whos "you guys"? I want to fly in that...

[@DarkKnight-bi7cr]

Must be nice to be rich and just do what you wanna do… and fly airplanes

[@erickborling1302]

Not F-5s. T-38 Talon.

[@mattguthmiller]

Not T-38 Talons. F-5.

[@The_f22]

T 38 talon actually

[@liviumistor5693]

400kts in an L-39? Let’s bring it down to a more realistic 300kts if you push it or 250kts at cruise….keep dreaming.

[@JankTheStank]

Awesome, also first lol

[@dankuettel5063]

Nothing wrong with having the money to do all this……..but do you have you accepted the Lord? I love aviation and photography and I’ve learned you can have both God and an amazing hobby. Food for though man.

[@Dan007UT]

If he says yes will you go away?

[@Yllod]

@@Dan007UT If god foots the bill for owning and flying an L39, I'll accept the heck out of him. Offer open to Allah, Shiva, and the Flying Spaghetti Monster. Not discriminating here.

[@FallenPhoenix86]

Isn't it also amazing how much more time you have for said hobbies and life in general if you don't bother with ancient superstitions, food for thought man.

[@TheRoguelement]

Hey brutha I'm pretty sure that a T38 Talon .. and NOT the F5 ...

[@HighBanker]

Hi Matt Amasing video, I have been watching your KZbin videos from the start of this Flying you do. That said I missed the last 7 months and my Jaw Dropped when I loged in to KZbin and there you are with a Jet. Absulootly amasing Life you have. I would probably not want see you try landing in Russia like the one time you did. Lmao that was Absulootly white knuckle watching that video. If I am ever down there I will gladly stop in and take look at your Jet your amazing nice to see your dreams come true. Sean
