You have got to love the British people. Love from Minnesota, USA.

[@jamespruitt3159]

Always a real treat to watch your videos, especially when the F-15 is flying!

[@ElwynR]

Glad you like them! 👌

[@100milesandrunnin]

Love the F-15s. Most elegant and beautiful piece of jet fighting machines. It’s my favourite plane since childhood

[@fearofthedark666]

Each to their own.

[@ChrisB257]

Excellent, and pretty fair weather. Bonus having the 400 and Osprey too. 👍 Fabulous still pics.

Glad you enjoyed it 😊👌 its been a while since I caught an Osprey

Great stuff as usual, Elwyn, many thanks 🙏🏻

[@nixonbd53]

Stationed at a SCIF out in the German countryside; we always saw a USAF jets from Ramstein AFB doing low level missions. It was AWESOME!

[@terryboyer1342]

You captured some real nice passes Elwyn. 👍

[@ElwynR]

Glad you enjoyed it! I was so chuffed at getting the special 15 👌 cheers 👍

[@MaistoHelix]

The Strike Eagle has earned it's name, for a couple of decades now. Nobody has ever stepped to the plate later on, because the Eagle is still the Boss...

Really enjoyable to watch and thank you so much. Ed Case

Fantastic video Elwyn. Diolch yn Fawr.

[@MikeG43]

Whilst serving on HMS Ark Royal 1963-64 we engaged in war games with an American Aircraft Carrier. Apparently we won ? One young Pilot took it on himself to do a victory roll along the length of the American carrier upside down. "Ground ground him" was the response, they did for one day lol. Any Flight deck crew who are still around ex Ark Royal might want to confirm the above.

Didn't know where the loop was until I Google it. Wales!!! Great scenery, the pic's r fantastic!! See any B-1's ?? Those cowboys r crazy too. We see a lot of low passes here in Kansas at the gunnery range.

[@JonSnow-YThandle]

I rate this one you most condescending video you made so far: the time you spend looking down on pilots and their planes is hilarious 😂 And the stills are probably in your personal top ten. 😊 Now I have to watch all the old vids I haven't seen yet to make sure I'm not talking out of my rear 😏

[@ElwynR]

Glad you enjoyed it!😊

[@karlw4647]

Right place, right time again 😂 can't be luck. Amazing shot of the liberator mate 🔥

@@ElwynR Really? What you do catch makes up for it! 👍

[@fredtedstedman]

Wow , that Osprey looked very close-up !

[@andrewmccallum5699]

Top shots and videos too, really impressive, the F--15 crews did a top job, with that special F-15 Strike Eagle - defo looked the part, F-35s Osprey and Hawks nice to see too), A400 hope did ok (tho miss the C-130 Hercules, hope they bring them back soon enough)

Brilliant. Only heard about the mach loop yesterday. Me an my 12 years old son are only an hour or so away and will be visiting very soon. Any advice as to when to visit would be greatly appreciated. 😊

[@peterszar]

At 0:51 is the WSO giving the middle finger?, I hope not, that wouldn't be cool. As usual excellent video.

[@DJ-ui2cn]

Man, some breathtaking videos and shots!! Are the pilosts actually acknowledging at 0:52?!?

[@ElwynR]

They know we are there! yes👌

[@DJ-ui2cn]

@@ElwynR Phenomenal!

[@brokenjet6134]

I saw this in person on cadri Idris. A bit concerning that KZbin decides to put this video into my recommendations seeing as i have had no interest in jets before but i guess we are all being tracked lol

[@MikeG43]

Hello Elwyn R. Following on from my last comments you may be interested to know serving on HMS Ark Royal in 1963 I witnessed and photographed the first sea landing of the prototype P.1127 Hawker Siddeley Harrier ( Jump Jet). I have a video if interested. I can add that I spent 2 years in North Wales on the project at Dinorwig ( The Power Station in the Mountain ). Wales a beautiful Country and great people.

[@ElwynR]

Thanks for the info Mike, many worked atDinorwig back in the day. Love the Harrier, it was way ahead of its time and we got rid of them way to early.

[@jamesmarshall3311]

Fantastic footage, as usual from Elwyn and greetings from just across the puddle in Co. Wicklow, Ireland. Do you sell any of your fab stills, a I would definitely invest in quite a few. Been watching your work for years now. Cheer`s mate.

[@ElwynR]

Thanks, I have been looking into offering stills for sale, but I'm still working on it 😕 soon I hope 👌

[@planestrainswildlife]

Very nice collection there Elwyn 👍👌🇺🇲🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 just out of interest where was the osprey filmed from, I don't recognise the location and background as it passed by 🤔 ATB Andy

[@ElwynR]

cheers Andy, it was from Bluebell 👌 I was sheltering from the wind and the Osprey went really wide

[@planestrainswildlife]

@@ElwynR Cheers Elwyn, I haven't ventured up there yet, I'll have to give it a look next time I'm back in the Loop 🤞👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

The yanks sure do have such an amazing air force...honestly the best in the world!

[@bobingram6912]

Great content Elwyn👍👍👍 Is it me or did the 35s nip through there a bit quicker than the 15s?? Big stuff still more impressive😂😂😂

[@ElwynR]

They do see to travel faster than the 15s

[@BasementBerean]

Very nice. Could you please just identify all the planes in your description? Many probably don't know what 3:54 is. (I don't, but I know what the others are.)

[@ElwynR]

I'm onto it 😊

Sorry if you have been asked this, but which Mach Loop location was this please. Great footage.

It's in North Wales uk

great footage, see that a guy has bought and ex red arrow hawk for £80,000 this week.

Gee, Switzerland or Moscow or New York or Brussels or Beijing - I wonder which comes first?

Not so agile than the Rafale! 🤷‍♂️

If you can't fly a jet try riding a bike, thats the closest you're going to get
