2:15:00 American here, and I totally agree with you about music at airshows. Dump it, and let the thunderous roar of the jet engines provide the soundtrack. We don't have to Hollywood-ify everything! The full-throated scream of fury as an F-15 soars overhead is all the accompaniment a show like that needs!

[@happycanayjian1582]

Bingo…..(not in terms of fuel, but as to your point made.) 😁

[@keiththorpe9571]

@@happycanayjian1582 "IT'S TIME TO LAND THE PLANE, COUGAR!" (Yeah, I know that's "Top Gun", and they're Navy...but it's the first movie reference about fuel emergency that came to mind 🤣)

[@greystripe3737]

my autoplay always lands me on one of these videos. this time I woke up at 3 AM to the glorious sound of an f15 taking off. may as well subscribe! great videos.

The Aircraft all ready have the Ultimate Music of the machines, And the wonder full tones they ALL produce..........That IS music performed By the thousands of parts working in perfect harmony. Dave Milk

[@sharoncassell5273]

I saw a U 2 on base & we used to watch B 52s take off from base. Loud & proud. Massive wing flex 17 feet, 8 engines what power.noise too. Some F15 also. After burners are lit like rocket taking off. Amazing. You can feel the rumble in your feet and chest on the ground. Vibration.

[@sharoncassell5273]

Aligning a KC 135 fueler and a F 15 jet boom receptor is poetry in the air. Very difficult syncrony like lining up a plane landing on a carrier. The coordination is phenomenal. Acrobatics .indeed.

[@aviationin4k258]

Anyway here are all the movements of the show 35:44 first F15 departure of the day 36:40 more F15s come out 47:04 2 F15s depart 55:03 another F15 comes out 1:00:17 F15 departure 1:25:14 F15 taxiing out 1:45:18 F15 returns to parking with possible issue 1:55:20 4 F15s taxiing out 2:06:44 fifth F15 taxiing out 2:16:25 2 F15 departures 2:20:26 2 more F15 departures 2:23:18 1 more F15 departure 2:31:13 2 F15 taxiing out 2:50:24 First few F15 arrivals on stream today 2:57:59 another 2 F15 arrival 3:03:19 more F15s arrive 3:09:20 F15 overshoot 3:11:33 F15 arrived after low approach (overshoot) 3:20:47 another 2 F15s arrive 3:21:22 another F15 arrival 3:22:14 2 F35s with VT on the tail taxiing down 3:31:28 VT AFB F35s depart

[@stevenremy7747]

@aviationin4k258, I greatly appreciate the time stamps you always put on the videos. Thank you!

.. 3:22:00 Lockheed/Boeing F-35 A Lightning III USAF tailcode 'VT'..: Burlington AFB, Vermont, 158 Fighter Group..

[@clothmonkeybag]

Yay , super dooper , the military industrial complex , limbering up for WW3 with China... heart warmer stuff . Great footage of the planes though.

[@freedomwarrior1448]

60's technology design. First production model = 73 models. Weapons crew = 3 personnel. EModels have -229's. C/D models have -220's.

[@sharoncassell5273]

I've had the priviledge of climbing into the cockpit of F15 in aircraft mechanic school and the engine intake for cleaning. Later crawled into T tail of C141 for motor change.and wing on belly to change wing bolts. Some guys were clostraphobic and would not go in.

[@mmomsboy]

2 High level fast jets just passed overhead Lincolnshire going SSE with 'one' leaving a good vapour trail from its left side but passed into cloud before identifying anything more 10.30

[@johnhosking8372]

Hey Jerry, maybe forklift driver backed into something, so he has to drive backwards around the base.

[@sharoncassell5273]

Drop tank for extra fuel on extended trip. Fighters consume alot of fuel and get refueled in the air by KC 135 or c76.

Hello From. NAVAL.AIR.STATIO.N.NORTH ISLAND CORONADO CALIFORNIA

[@bobthebinman9]

Leslie, I can remember F-100s at Lakenheath, later F-5s 😊

[@pauldone5413]

Welcome back

[@connerchilders3621]

This came on while I was sleeping and I was too tired to turn it off so every now and then I got woken up by a jet passing by because my speaker was turned up a lot since I was watching a quiet video and I have bad hearing

[@freedomwarrior1448]

A1315 = a recent depot return. True ref Conformal Fuel Tanks.

[@sharoncassell5273]

C130 Hercules is usually Air National Guard. In USA.

[@jred4421]

There is quite a big difference between F-15C & F-15E aircraft. The pro's know. The USAF have partnered with the UK for staging bases, as well with many other nations. The pro's know why. Understandably, the audio is muted watching BIG JET TV. Incredibly difficult to follow the logic of the presenters opinion.

[@JohnGrinham-cm6vb]

Never gets boring seeing a f15 with after burners

[@jameshennighan8193]

HARRY THE HARE Just supervising Take-off... An obvious part of effective ATC.... James Hennighan Yorkshire, England

[@TiborDudás-o4s]

This is interesting❤❤❤❤

[@robertkillen3508]

the question the largest raf air station is brize norton then waddington

[@janlesinski4719]

Built an avionics building there many years ago

[@MasonGarver]

Does this place kind of look like an airshow?

[@lesliesmart651]

Hi I can remember when Lakenheath had F 111

[@freedomwarrior1448]

A/A config not A/G. Two wing tanks = standard configuration.

[@ocn2u]

The rabbit was trying to heat them up and take off but he was missing his wings man

[@bobthebinman9]

F-4s ... ooops finger trouble 😅

[@gavshomebrew]

It is brst to drive. Forklifts backwards for visabiity

[@sharoncassell5273]

The rabbit was racing the planes.

[@jeffreymakosky8087]

[@sharoncassell5273]

Can't you use audio filters to block out certain formants of sounds? The young generation likes the music. They don't appreciate the engine sounds like we older folks do. They do not recognize the pertinence of the engine noise.

[@MasonGarver]

I can’t believe we saw an F 35 lightning in at 15 eagle

[@3eBor]

It looks like many F-15 turn off AB just after take off, and after 5-10 seconds they turn it on again. What's the purpose of that action?

[@sharoncassell5273]

Conserve fuel & noise reduction.

[@sharoncassell5273]

Quiet motion over residents. They complain about the noise. I loved even sonic booms years ago. Now after 10PM some neighborhoods demand No planes until morning. Germany did it.

GOT SKIN AND BLOOD IN THE F-15E, though @ SJ and not LN.

[@sharoncassell5273]

They used touse dragchutes to slow jets down.

[@brianlehman1244]

Just trying to improve where we can
