Oshkosh Bomber Day! B-17/B-29/B-25s/B-1/B-2/B-52 - EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2017

The Saturday of the 2017 EAA AirVenture airshow in Oshkosh, WI was quickly dubbed 'Bomber Day' thanks to the amazing segment that featured all three modern USAF bombers (the B-1 Lancer, B-2 Spirit, and B-52 Stratofortress) plus a number of WWII bombers (BOTH B-29 Superfortresses "Doc" and "Fifi", a B-17 Flying Fortress, and five B-25 Mitchells). Watch all of these amazing aircraft perform formation and single flybys in an incredible display of airpower!

The best airshow presenter is a quiet one, we want the sound of engines, the planes, nothing more , Who agrees ? Introduce the flyby , then pause and be quiet !

[@curiousfigment]

I still cannot get over that 'sci-fi' looking silhouette of the B-2. Such a marvelous piece of engineering.

[@TS-ev1bl]

Which makes the fact they were built in the 1980s even more amazing.

[@miriambarranger2094]

I love the b52 and the b1

[@miriambarranger2094]

Hello Curious learner

[@nickdrexler8071]

Always makes me think of Batman’s “baterang ” the boomerang thing!! So sweet!!

[@hazmatt3250]

As much as I enjoy fighter flybys, nothing beats the visual intimidation factor of a bomber flying overhead.

[@waremergencypower6024]

I love how the B52 is the one making all of the noise of the 3 bomber formation

[@garethbest2355]

Is there any way we could all band together and sign a petition, then locate who to send it to that lets them know that the announcers should only talk when there aren't planes near or overhead? Seriously- how can they not know how many people it pisses off?

[@eamo106]

Introduce the formation YES, and then be quiet for the fly by, let the view and engines pass without commentary !

[@tempest957]

You know its so easy to forget what brilliant designers engineers maintence crews and Pilots we have in the World and especially America!! Just think where we were just 100 years ago!! and now look what we have! These amazing planes and skills of the Pilots! I salute you ALL! Where will we be in 100 years time? The mind boggles!! sorry if you don't understand some words, I'm from England ,just outside London Essex. Loving the show and everything!!

[@wedge7j7]

"DOC" and "FIFI" are wonderful planes!!!

[@adonismarrero5281]

A missing man formation with fighters is impressive enough but when you do with all these great looking bombers is out of this world and the sound of those engines will definitely leave you speech less

[@frjoethesecond]

All I heard was the announcer saying the same thing over and over again.

[@Chromedome38]

...and not a Dry Eye anywhere!

[@daz804]

That b52 display is gorgeous and the sound of those whistling engines never fail to give me goosebumps❤❤❤

[@hazmatt3250]

The B-2 has 4 F-16 engines, the B-1 can go supersonic and sounds like a rocket at full afterburner, yet the B-52 is still louder than both of them combined

[@briandovey6241]

Love you yanks, not bothered about showing your patriotism! In England it's becoming very unpolitically incorrect to support and recognise what so many heroes did to save their way of life! 👍👏

[@afterburner2869]

Politically incorrect you say? Who gives a shit if it offends some soft little snowflake. You should be proud of your country and those that sacrificed everything to fight back the onslaught of the natzi invasion . Wear your patriotism proudly. 🇬🇧 I hate to say it, but that poetically incorrect mentality is growing here as well. I however don’t give a shit if my patriotism offends a liberal. It actually brings me joy to offend those soft little snowflake liberals. I gladly rub it in their faces!🇺🇸

[@jerryshoemaker7476]

@@afterburner2869 I agree with you, fuck a bunch of liberal snowflakes, if they get offended, that makes me that much happier

[@storkman]

Your videos are awesome, thanks so much for the Osh Kosh coverage

[@15kr]

We walked down to the south end of the runway - nice and quiet :) - with awesome views.

[@SkyhawkSteve]

good video! It hit the key elements of the bomber display. Thanks to whoever was involved in getting the current bombers to show up! Also, thanks to the crews of the vintage bombers for all of their work to get their aircraft to Oshkosh too!

[@Mrcaffinebean]

Where else do you get to see all these beautiful planes in one place!

[@SPak-rt2gb]

Edwards AFB

[@Kevinwayne199]

I like when the engine noise drowns out the announcer.

[@estebanguerra2573]

Oh man I remember being there. Coolest thing I've ever seen

[@chuckeberth4370]

What wonderful display of America's bombers then and now. WOW! The missing man formation said it all. 😢

[@LuvBorderCollies]

I was to three OshKosh events scattered through the 80's. For those wanting to hear engines as they fly by, there really isn't anything spectacular as the planes are "idling" along at slow speed. The only planes whose noise level really loud was the Harrier lifting straight up and hovering. First prize for volume was the Concorde. That thing was soooo loud it vibrated your bones. It didn't matter if you plugged your ears because the sound went straight through you. That was on a touch-n-go when they shoved the throttles to the wall. What an incredible machine it was but I understand economics and the Concorde was high maintenance.

[@ujijin3099]

Finally: the 52 shut that pontificating announcer!

[@hazmatt3250]

Jeffrey Ady When the BUFF is talking, you listen. No secondary option!

[@irockluculent961]

Could someone make the announcer shut up while the planes are overhead and we want to hear just the planes?? The announcer's information can be found anywhere anytime--but not the sound of these magnificent airplanes. Maybe provide people with headphones or some way to tune into the announcer if you want to hear that instead of the planes.

[@redstone51]

Serious goosebumps!!!

[@rodgoddard5113]

Wow, awsome airshow, the two B29s flying together really stole the show...

[@flipflopsguy8868]

These birds touch me emotionally because of my fondness for America and it's strength I grew up learning about and witnessing which these bombers encompass. And it's not because I like war, my uncle transitioned through every one of these up to the B-1 as a Army Air Force Crewmen. Mors Ab Alto 👐

[@WH-um2gx]

Pity one cannot hear the aircraft engines.

[@drpork1360]

Missing man formations give me serious goosebumps

[@adrianmontaiuti6928]

Heritage formation with a climbing B-29 honoring the veterans was epic

[@laconicdev]

Wonderful planes... but the announcer giving amature "history" lessons while the aircrafts are passing is really killing the vibe.

[@adambadger]

This day was so rare and unique that I still cannot believe that EAA pulled this off.

[@Jessica_Films]

Awesome

[@webzappr]

Impressive!

[@ww2dogfighter1944]

ill be 30 and 40 when these things are still flying

[@riproar11]

I got some great shots of B-29 "FIFI" flying rather low at Thunder Over Michigan 2015 with the perfect propeller blur. I keep up with air shows but how did I miss out on two B-29s flying in formation????

[@Susquethanpharbeotor]

Enough potential fire power in this video to slice Florida off the mainland and set it afloat on it's own

[@thiagohenrique4709]

fantastic I like to watch this video over flight of Bombers in the skies from Oshkosh.

[@delten-eleven1910]

The sisters B-29s flanked by the B‐17 was incredible. I'd love to see a formation of Boeing's bombers: B-17, B-29 and B-52.

[@josephososkie3029]

B-17 is poetry in the sky.

[@johnosbourn4312]

The announcer made three errors during the bomber parade: 1- The First Flight of the B-52 was in 1952, not 1954. 2- Afganistan is in South Asia, not the Middle East. And 3- The TF33 produces 18,000lbs of thrust, not 17,000lbs. Overall, great video, guys.

[@johnosbourn4312]

One more thing, the Buff has quadracycle gear, not tandem like the announcer was saying.

[@williamcrane8236]

Thank you for actually listening and pointing out this fools blather. It just all sounded like adults in Peanuts cartoons to me "Waa, wa, wa waa waaaaaaa" "WAAAAAAA". He's old, he'll die soon and take all his information, some of it wrong, with him. He's gotta get it OUT THERE!

[@kwb200]

Gotta love ole smokey. A far off distance of a b52 swept wings is freaky looking you know it would scare the hell out if a enemy

[@richardwernars5327]

Someone shout the anouncer!

[@elton6656]

Had to quit at 2:31, can't hear the aircraft

[@BeselerSimRacing]

Seriously, I don't think I've ever seen a once in a lifetime airshow moment ruined so badly by an airshow announcer. They need some new talent up on the mic stand at KOSH.

[@tommyboy71]

Bingus258 He must be a major stockholder or ?. I agree, why they allow him to talk non stop. 😩

[@WootTootZoot]

totally agree

[@Daehawk]

ounds like some old slow guy. He starts yappin right as the planes get there and no one hears him. Might as well be quiet. He is annoying.

[@AndrewP657]

That's Danny Clisham. He has 50 years of experience. You're not going to really find anyone better www.dannyclisham.com/about. But I agree, I wish he would be quiet and only talk when the planes are making their turnarounds.

[@tom_hoots]

I have been watching a few videos from 2017. I started out thinking about how "I should go to Oshkosh some day." LIKE HELL. What on EARTH does it take to shut these idiot moron announcers up? If airshows need to have announcers talking through ABSOLUTELY EVERY MINUTE of the show, I'll never go to another air show again, so long as I live.

[@Cars-N-Jets]

Who else decided to show up at this video the night of the B21 Raider unveiling?

[@johnosbourn4312]

What a historic day!!!!!!!! Now, did the A-20 fly, or was she just a static aircraft only?

[@AirshowStuffVideos]

Sadly the A-20 never flew in the show. It departed Saturday morning if I remember correctly. Major disappointment for what was supposed to be a featured airplane...

[@johnosbourn4312]

AirshowStuffVideos What a bummer!

[@bigchungus2667]

3:33 ah yes the song of freedom, made me tear up for a bit IDK why

[@williamcrane8236]

Just every one of them. I get as far away from the speaker as possible. Good lord he's actually YELLING into the mic to be heard over, FREEDOM. Well, at least he was quite during Taps. Unfortunately Surprising.

[@wbuttry1]

God bless the USA and our Soldiers and our vets thank you for your service.

[@johnosbourn4312]

W.A.B mobile entertainment Amen to that.

[@GOASTRC]

Pity they didn't bomb the commentary box!

[@johnosbourn4312]

Did anyone catch the A-20 during the Arrivals, at all?

[@AirshowStuffVideos]

No, it flew in months ahead of time and sat in the museum's hangar until the show

[@hismajestysmen]

What a pity a B-36 Peacemaker couldn't have been there alongside those B-29's. It would have dwarfed them. It was the crucial link between piston-engine and jet bombers. Six P & W R4360 engines plus four turbojets. Sadly not one is airworthy or probably ever will be.

[@minhduyyoutube9002]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@philmfwalker1611]

B52, B1, B2 = Americano stimulus package

[@kennysherrill6542]

Blue Sky's forever.

[@smitbar11]

Should read " The World's Greatest Collection of American Bombers" as the legendary Russian TU95 Bear and TU160 Blackjack are not there, nor the last flying Avro Lancasters etc

[@davibrandao2644]

Whats mean the last pass? I saw several times this same pass with 4 aircrafts, and in the middle of the pass, one in the center just leave,what is the history behind it?

[@AirshowStuffVideos]

It's called a missing man flyover, it pays tribute to a fallen pilot or crew

[@bhamaazlast7768]

The old bomber geng vs the new bomber geng

[@afterburner2869]

This video makes me want to listen to some Motörhead!

[@adriaansmit81]

Watching this in my uni library makes me forget the smell of the indian guy sitting next to me

[@williamcrane8236]

Ah man, and you know, it wasn't a cool day and there were 20,000 thousand people within nose shot alone. We grow cayenne peppers in our garden and the wife takes them to one of her Indian co-workers, nice guy. But he eats them like candy! That'll put a twang to the ole sweat pores.

[@LordPotato690]

Its all fun and games until all of them together and open their bomb doors

[@BMMEC6000]

No one what’s to focus on the b17s

[@hankwvu]

Wish the guy would shut up. Commentary can become just too much.

[@hikakin_mania440]

😵

[@mikemac2888]

6:19 - WHAT!?!?!?!?

[@miriambarranger2094]

Whats wrong Miie Mac

[@miriambarranger2094]

What's wrong Mike Mac

[@darrellmaynard3492]

We need a new bomber to replace the B-52 because it can't go on forever.

[@uncleernie1595]

With the new upgrades, the B52 is slated to fly until 2050

[@BeselerSimRacing]

I'd take Danny Clisham although he needs to learn to be quiet when the focus aircraft are in front of the audience instead of a big history lesson that not a lot of people are listening too. He's better than Screamin Rob Reider who cant help himself but to scream into the Mike and be absolutely ridiculous not to mention extremely pompous.

[@TheSirjohn2012]

The B-2 ?Later in this decade this bomber will be in the boneyards out in the states of AZ/TX because we have newer technologies.

[@johnosbourn4312]

True, but, the Air Force won't send the B-2 to the Boneyard, which is at Davis Mothan AFB, Tucson, Airizona; instead, they'll fly them back to Palmdale's Air Force Plant-42. The only time the air force had a storage facility in Texas, was right after the end of WW-2, in early September '45, and that site was located in Pyote, Texas. It was later closed when DOD decided to make the site at DM AFB, the only Storage Facility for USAF, and US Army aircraft, at first, then when the Navy closed down NAS Litchfield Park, aircraft from the Navy, Marines, and Coast Guard started being sent to DM, which resulted in the site being renamed as MASDC: Military Aircraft Storage, and Disposition Center. Today the place is known as AMARC: Aerospace Maintenence, and Regeneration Center. Assigned to AFMC's 309th AMARG, 309th Maintenence Wing.

[@darrellmaynard3492]

Hypersonic bombers would be the way to go.

[@PhilbyFavourites]

We call them cruise missiles - the man (or woman) has been taken out of the a/c equation

[@aaron8862006]

Announcers and music are gradually ruining air shows in the US.

[@luger700]

Right? I wish there were more shows that offered specific sections without speakers so the people that film the shoe wouldn't have their videos audio ruined.

[@williamcrane8236]

Airshows? Try every sporting event too.

[@MrTomjau]

.....beautiful B29.....But the speaker fotgot to tell about the warcrimes in Hiroshima and Nagsaki
