Morning F-16 Viper Operations at Tucson International Airport!

[@arizonahillbilly5961]

I worked those jets at the 162nd for 10 years. You need to post up in that same spot for night Launches and get some burner shots! Loved my years in the USAF and as a USAF kid, both of my folks were USAF

Thank you for your service and the suggestion! I will have to see when they would eventually go up at night and make another trip to Tucson. Thanks for watching!

The mid-1990s were a good time for us. We had brand new C and D model jets...

[@ScottSmiley-fn4fo]

One thing that is humorous, is the jets are older than the pilots flying them 😀 I worked on F15s from that era when I was a young airman in the 80's. Great to see both F16 and F15's still in service today!

[@BlueRockerPR]

Some of the ones featured here are even older Block 20 models that were later retired/transferred to the Navy. Even so, you are correct, these models are quite old but still quite capable jets & I'm glad to see them in service today. Thanks for watching!

Another banger buddy!! Awesome stuff! Some of those Viper pilots understood the assignment and kept it nice and low!!

[@BlueRockerPR]

Thanks bud! Most of them tend to keep them nice and low so its very nice to film over there.

[@massimilianomoretti1067]

Great video... I saw an Ecuatoriana B 727 stored in the background. 👍👍👍✈️👋

[@TrumpNation96]

Great Job! I love the D model

[@BlueRockerPR]

Thank you very much!

[@HRPlanespotter]

estaba esperando este video!!!!!

[@BlueRockerPR]

Es un video más viejo de las primeras veces que fui a Arizona pero nunca los subí al canal. Pero ya sabes, tienes que ir un día de estos para Arizona a grabar!

The nose with dark gray painting is just F16V.

The Jersey and Az guard got to keep their fighters. The NM guard lost theirs! Now they have two, hand-me-down C-130's. *Yawn.* GREAT video...could watch for hours.

[@BlueRockerPR]

It is a shame that the NM Guard lost their fighters, I never got to see them myself. Thanks for watching!

The 177th FW was supposed to get 24 F-15s but that never happened, the only positive step from the debacle of BRAC 2005 and it didn't happen.
