🇺🇸 🇬🇧 The Awesome "CAD WEST" Low Flying Jet Site In Wales "Mach Loop".

[@Rocky_Intertidal]

Seeing and hearing a F-15 in a high-bank turn just never gets old.

[@AmparitoVic]

Knowing that in the past knights and medieval lords roamed through these valleys makes this video so much more epic.... if they only knew.. if they only knew... hehehehe

[@MediocreCinema]

this made me smile! great comment dude

[@noididnt7972]

Time shift movie, possibility ala "A connecticut Yankee in King Arthurs Court".

[@angzhamz5053]

cool cat dude "God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind"...

[@ricecakeFTW]

Man those Typhoons have a eerie howl to them......beautiful scenery!

[@fcaughli]

What a great way to spend a day

[@colinhughes196]

Were is that place

[@thecatalunya1]

i have been up there many times believe me its noisy ..great to wtch they come so close ..

[@colinhughes196]

@I have to wait 90 days to change my name only got half of message

[@samsungw200]

Great video! That hawk stole the show :-)

[@hellcatjoe]

Hawk @ 4:20 definitely an instructor on the stick. A good 50 feet lower than anything else through. Awesome shots. Great footage.

[@jacob1423]

ya that was awesome

[@ILSRWY4]

Love how every plane rolls over exactly (or nearly exactly) in the same spot with the top of aircraft exposed, right were they stand with the cameras as if the pilots knew to get that perfect photo opportunity moment....

[@angzhamz5053]

God orchestrates s everything. "All is vanity"...

[@stringztoo]

I love how every jet that goes by banks to the right for the photographers... then along comes the C 130 and says "anything you can do I can do better" and cuts that bad boy to the right real hard! Brought a huge smile to my face.

[@On3iLi0]

That F15 sound, love that @4:10

[@Evandiego16]

One of the best amateur footage I've ever seen. The landscape is beautiful and the viewpoint is fantastic. Thanks for this awesome video!

[@JunglistBass]

Aliens be like daaam humans your space ships are epic

[@johnwahan9086]

Man..I could watch this all day.if I lived there or close by. Thanks for awesome video. Grew up next to jet base never got tired if watching jets.if I ever get to visit UK..I will look for this spot if possible.

[@captainskypie4537]

I love how the C-130 is just like HEY! I'M A WHALE *WHOOOSH*

[@LeRoiDelaRue]

My first visit there yesterday Waited nearly 3 hours, saw 2 Hawks, got off, and taking boots off in car park ... 2 Eagles scream over my head, 300 foot up. Awesome.

[@alphazulu8561]

LeRoiDelaRue , hi there, im from asia, i intent to visit the place, any pointers or landmarks that i should br aware of?

[@santaria19]

Jet fighter pilot. Probably the best job of the world.

[@falseteeth5621]

No, a bus driver is better. More glamorous and sexier uniform.

[@santaria19]

False Teeth You mean more chicks? :D

[@Iowarail]

Locomotive Engineers!!!! Sexiest.

[@Napoleon_Blownapart]

taxi driver gets all the cheap bitches lmao

[@Rataldo20]

+santaria19 for me Astronaut is waaaay better

[@jonBlcksnds]

woah, congratulations for the coolest video on youtube :) When I was younger, we used to holiday up in Wales every year, we had family who owned a farm and if you went up the hills behind the farm, sometimes you'd get them flying past beneath you, quite the sight!

[@MangoHombre]

I live close to Luke AFB in Arizona. They let me know to open the front door and the back patio door of my house so they can fly through.

[@mclarenrob2]

I went to the Cosford air show about 15 years ago and I still remember it as one of the best days watching these things

[@videowilliams]

Wow, those Typhoons sound like nothing else in the air.

[@Wonkabar007]

They also make cool howl sound, when they dive to drop a paveway.

[@flaviobarros9736]

I think that are J10, not Typhoons

[@videowilliams]

Flavio Pessoa J10s? But why would Chinese aircraft be flying in Britain?

[@wapted]

+videowilliams They are Typhoons and Tornadoes ... although a couple were American jets as well. (F15)

[@videowilliams]

wapted Ah yes- that thumbnail image, then, is an F15. Cool. I'd been wondering about that.

[@Wonkabar007]

Its the best place for video, because you get a long run in, and it gives the video camera time to start-up, plus its a great view of the landscape at this location. There are some other good spots, but they are more suited to still photography.

[@MurpheeLaw]

I could literally watch this all day. (being there)

[@timecowx]

What a cool and exciting place to spend a day! Great shots, thanks for sharing!

[@normanmcgill9532]

WOW! That's great stuff. Those pilots are having way too much fun.

[@thedreamliner2012]

Now that's what I call "turn'n & burn'n" lol very cool. The way they flip from side to side is just badass.

[@RCFlyBoy314]

That C130... "HEY! I can do that too ya know...."

[@andymcneil7085]

Best job in the World in the most beautiful place in the World. My Dad and I used to go walking in Snowdonia fairly often. I remember seeing jets most days .

[@Gromit801]

Would loved to have seen Varks boom through there. The noise would have been astounding.

[@timraraigh1559]

+Gromit801 See my reply up above here. I was in Australia back in the mid 80,s. Aussie AF used to drive Varks. They buzzed Downtown Melbourne once. I though for sure there would be shattered windows from THAT. One driver did a fuel-dump and went near vertical climb out. I swear there was an earthquake from all the jaw's that dropped at THAT sight. Badass

[@houseofbaboshka6456]

So good to see these vids. I went to a party near by way back and the next was lucky to see the jets flying by, so cool.

[@JaZoN_XD]

those 15s are gorgeous! I wonder why they all have external tanks on them though. Awesome video!

[@dylanhowarth5995]

Oh the eurofighters are something else though!

[@GJones462-2W1]

If I could build a house there, I would finally find true happiness every afternoon. They don't have to bank right, on a knife edge pass, right where the cameras are, but I love how the pilots do it, anyways, knowing that they're down there, trying to get the best shots! Great stuff!

[@mrtinypen1sman233]

listen to the roars of those f-15 beast man great job

[@twinstu50]

Dudes!. This is 'bird watching' to the nth degree!. Bloody Pommies. This Aussie readily concedes, when you lot do something well, you do it VERY well!. I stand impressed.

[@matthijsmeester7715]

Bautiful footage

[@sullaford]

Great vid! I live near a US ANG Base that flies F-15's and at 0:44 I could tell just by the sound that was what was coming next without being able to see it! Never knew it was so distinctive. Love it!

[@TCGSimulationGaming]

RIP RAF Harrier :'(

[@henryvagincourt]

:(

[@richardstevens8839]

Yeah sad really, when we decomission aircraft stuff we usually just scrap them, usually just 2-3 will exist for Museums like Duxford or others. The Amercans having Plenty of Room, Keep alot of their old Hardware in the New Mexico, Arizona and California out in the desert

[@TheamazingSeal]

Don't worry, the F35 is coming. (sarcasm)

[@nickfury1279]

That low altitude pass by that Hawk trainer that starts at 3:00 will always be my favorite part of the video

[@sylviabailey9574]

My son

[@moofushu]

That has got to be so loud. I'm sure the video doesn't do it justice as how loud that is. I noticed there are no goats or animals up there just the crazy humans.

[@Wonkabar007]

Sometimes there are many sheep in the fields, they don't even look up when a jet flies through.

[@wolfgang7812]

😂

[@MrDaiseymay]

Wonkabar007 They're all effing deaf by now.

[@simbiote89]

+moofushu I went to the Formula 1 race in Melbourne back in 2012 before they switched to turbo V6s and got really quiet, and the SuperHornets flying overhead at ~500m altitude with burners on were about as loud as the 24 car field racing past you 5m away. Both were great experiences.

[@michaelsmitten302]

+moofushu Animals take no notice

[@santabarbaraca2010]

F15 Eagle,Bitburg AFB 1982.Love the sound of the Eagle!!!!

[@grahamcuddy2215]

Lancaster would be good to see

[@TheSmeagol1512]

Great video must add this to my bucket list on day? Keep up the good work

[@brothermaleuspraetor9505]

I want to rip up the sky!!!!! Screw Motorbikes, after seeing this vid I wanna be a pilot! :D

[@Vikingdescendent]

Good one! The ultimate ride!

[@brightstarboi]

Gee those Typhoons have an amazing sound! :-) Great video.

[@TheShockwaveDragon]

I'm aware that this is actual practice for them, but it's amusing that the pilots are still accommodating enough to put on a show at the same time knowing how popular this location is. Even the C-131 pilots presented a full top profile shot as they passed by.

[@Napoleon_Blownapart]

being one of the elite pilots must has to be lots of fun showing off and all that flying freedom

[@amct1019]

They’re not putting on a show...

[@surgtech1503]

Cool stuff. I never knew Wales was so beautiful.

[@cptstubing]

F-15s are classic!

[@craigmurphy163]

Greatest air force on the planet thankyou boys and girls

[@arjunasenvirathne3708]

i know all the fighters there a lot of F15s.Sea Harrrers,EuroFighterThyphoons, F-5 tiger II that went high up,F-5 tigers and Paravinan Tornados.. whooo hooooo

[@Sendthatbeemer]

Theres no f-5s in here bro there hawks

[@DudemeisterNL]

Its Panavian Tornado

[@p3rran]

The one that went up high was a Hawker Hawk

[@obliviousfafnir01]

Those Mirages have a really nice wail. Sweet looking jets, too.

[@JJ180]

But can he eject out of the plain mid flight, snipe a camper out of a tower then jump back in the plain in mid air shouting nooooobs?

[@TheScouseassassin]

+JJoneEIGHTY No but he can spell PLANE properly.

[@LIKWID]

+TheScouseassassin ROFL!!!!

[@nathangreenall7929]

JJ one EIGHTY no and go back to 1st grade to learn about how to spell PLANE

[@end8316]

Love meself some bf4

[@Epostaxis]

the locals must be really happy with all those passes...

[@trefod]

I'm hard pressed to come up with a better way to get deaf.

[@trefod]

Menkalinan79 Not really. I am not hugely aroused by lecherous leprechauns so your suggestion, imaginative as it may be, is definitely a worse way to get deaf than the one mentioned originally.

[@eduardviska]

Super good miniature air combats manoeuvre Fest. :-) Super location !!

[@johnprice7303]

Where the fuck in Wales is that? I want to go there! I don't even own a camera... but I wish could sit on the side of that valley and then die happy! thank you for uploading a hair raising video.

[@2k9smasher]

How well do you know wales :D it is near machynlleth. Lots of waiting around though so if you go Take some cover and some food

[@johnprice7303]

adam jones Thanks for that.

[@ro9967]

Awesome sound for those Typhoons!! The slight howl does it.

[@DoggyB22]

F-15 sounds the best imo!

[@jonny2954]

+DoggyB22 The loudest one. R.I.P. Headphone users

[@Ubique2927]

DoggyB22 ... With all respect. The Typhoon. If you close your eyes you would swear your listening to Star Wars.

[@MElmesy]

DoggyB22 What time in the video was the F-15?

[@frangipanboo]

Nick Turner if you also close your eyes and dream the Typhoon would be a successful fighter not the money pit that no country outside of Europe ever wanted to buy. But nice try anyway 👎🏼

[@GaryOK]

That's some insane footage !!! Mind blowing even !!!

[@docogg50]

Andrew Gorrie - Only an absolute idiot says he loves war. We don't do it for the love of war. We do it because if we don't somebody else will and they may die in the process. Better us than than someone else. Alas, some day men won't have to fight any more, but in the mean-time, there are those of us (in the UK too) would rather volunteer and put it all on the line than to risk the need for a draft. After all, no matter our national origin, we run the risk of a conscription if there aren't enough volunteers...

[@chrisanthony7481]

fantastic filming.. absolutely fantastic!!!

[@metaleirodasantigas]

F-15 Rules!!!!!

[@nowthisis2stupid]

18tangles The F-15 has superior wing area, thrust to weight ratio, control surfaces, fuel capacity, The newest variant of F-15 has superior BVR to the Typh, the list goes on. I know you want to think the Typh makes the world turn, but it just doesn't my friend. Perhaps you should give this a read. www.ausairpower.net/Analysis-Typhoon.html I'm not saying the Typhoon is a bad plane, it's just not the god plane, that the European populace thinks it is.

[@nowthisis2stupid]

18tangles I literally have no Idea what stats you are going off of on the F-15... Did you go off of the F-15E? - The F-15E has a max takeoff weight of 68,000 lbs, twin F110 GE engines producing 29,400 lbs max thrust equates to 58,800 lbs of max thrust. That is a max thrust to weight ratio of 0.865:1 on the F-15E. - The Euro Typh with a max takeoff weight of 51,800 lbs and two EJ200 engines with 20,300 lbs of max thrust comes to 40,460 lbs of thrust totral. That is a max thrust to weight ratio of 0.781:1 for the typhoon. (The same T/W ratio is reflected at cruise as are shown above) - Wing loading on the F-15C (seeing as I could not find a wing load for the E model) is 73.1 lb/ft squared. - Wing loading for the Typhoon comes to 63.9 lb/ft squared. The thing to remember here, is the wing loading is figured solely on wing area itself. Not the plane as a whole. The F-15 is designed to create lift on most surfaces. Example: The IDF F-15C returning to base with only one wing. Not to mention, there are no figures for the F-15e, only the C model. seeing as the F-15e air frame was extended including wing area. Once again, your figures on most other performance characteristics are referring to the C model, not the current F-15e Strike Eagle. Which, by design is a multi-role strike fighter, with the capability to cross over to air superiority. So, after all, they aren't all that different. Also, I'm not sure where you got your figures on range... The F-15 in any configuration has superior range to the Typhoon. It's simple physics, a larger plane holds more fuel.

[@andrew19682008]

heres an easy one for you.the f15 future upgrades are going to be carried out by bae(british).also the typhoon is superior to the f15.typhoon can also shoot with helmet targetting which stuffs the sukhoi fan boys.

[@frangipanboo]

andrew19682008 you lost me at the Typhoon is superior to the F15. Nice try Eurotrash 🖕

[@djjayem100]

Gets my hairs standing on end watching this. Incredible.

[@farawayfettler]

top gun Welsh style lol

[@jeffreyfarquharson3896]

Non

[@MoesjeA]

GREAT !!! Know the place ... we'll go every year in april/mei since 2009 :-) with a "changing" group. Love it there .... and the man in the yellow coat knows a lot !

[@DS_Footage]

f14 smoking like shit!

[@jeffzuiderveen7266]

no f-14's in this vid...the only ones still flying them (sorta) is Iran

[@megatech1966]

F-15 you mean

[@442hoeky]

Mark Holloway I think he means the Tornado at 2:35

[@1903A3shooter]

There were no f-14s in the vid. they have been gone for years.

[@leolldankology]

I agree, the F-86 Sabres were smoking like shit. Although...I'm not sure how much smoke shit makes.

[@TacitMoose]

I love that howling sound the typhoon makes before it passes.

[@rebelwithoutaporsche]

Woooaaaa!!..why have I never heard of this place before now??!!...I,m off up there this week..bollocks to work!..thanks for sharing :)....

[@utka1182]

Whene the Eurofighter cant closer, he's sound look like an air horn, wow.. Amazing video! Respect from Hungary!

[@Wonkabar007]

That's a good point about tail numbers, especially when filming something cool, best to blur them out.

[@joshs4594]

Excellent! The one at 3:00 was the best.

[@MrHermonMunster]

Awesome. Love that ripping fabric sound the air makes.

[@richardt4987]

Very good. I love Jet fly-bys.

[@Wonkabar007]

Since 2009 there have been lots of defense cuts, so its quieter up there these days.

[@jimmyraytodd387]

my 4 year old son LOOOOVES this video ty for posting this ;)

[@russmorgan4495]

Great of the jocks to salute you,that hawk that buzzed you then went high...at St Athans in the good days the tonka drivers would wave wings at you and the harrier guys would slow rightdown as the dropped over the road (right on end of approach runway) and give you a nod...

[@cqbhoun]

I could sit and watch that all day...

[@LazyLogical]

Those Hawks make some snappy passes...Love it!

[@ivan36ss]

Awesome video!!! I hope that one day I can vacation (Holiday) to this spot on Gods green Earth!!! Love the footage and the all of the different aircraft that passes through that beautiful landscape.

[@H89SA]

Eargasm! What a beautiful noise...

[@SocratesAth]

I like how you can hear when it's a Typhoon even before you can visually recognize it, that howl is unmistakable.

[@Wonkabar007]

There is some video on KZbin of A-10s flying in the Mach Loop, wish I had been there to see it.

[@RCWASPOVISION]

Ah man, major Goosebumps!!!!!!!

[@TheSwampy1974]

Wow great video Typhoon sound is awesome screaming at you Love the f15 so cool Would of loved too seen the English electric lightning fly through full chat that's noise

[@ronaldopalsu]

really wanna go there

[@davetram1]

fantastic approach sound shifting the air,awesome

[@7paco]

wow this combines two really awesome things: hiking and jets!!

[@GoMiGman]

Great stuff. Interesting that those Hawks look like they're faster than the Harriers. Those tiny birds are really agile and fast. Love the dark gray of the F-15E's. Not too often your looking at the back of a fighter from above it while it's flying.

[@MikeTheCoolMan007]

I really like how the pilots tilt their plans for the photographers, giving them a better shot. Looks like the pilots are showing off. I would. :-)

[@dougster250]

Great video Thanks for sharing it with us.

[@Marillionado]

A day well spent indeed, thanks for sharing.

[@pauleverest1774]

Amazing how quick the Typhoons can level out after that turn.

[@FurorTeutonicus1]

Jet noise, THE SOUND OF FREEDOM!!! Glencoe is similar (Lived there for five years). Once saw a B-52 take "this flight path." Now that WAS impresive.... and LOUD! Same area a couple of months later, a Bucaneer (I am giving my age away) actually took the top branch off a tree, it was so low! WONDERFULL days! :-) :-)

[@philipbrailey]

Thanks for posting. That was great.

[@newlander]

Amazing, some of the coolest footage I've ever seen!

[@71superbee3]

The F-15 Eagle. Awesome, baby ! 1:20

[@RenatoGigliottiMPh]

Fantastic job, congratulations !!!!!

[@LazyJoe69]

gotta love the howling sound the typhoon makes.. :D

[@dizzymindy6024]

When I am down in the dumps, I watch this channel. Luv it!! (Btw, my son is USAF).

[@lasombra68]

Awesome. I was stationed in Germany in the early 80s with US Army. Worked at a remote communications site on top of a mountain. We used to get buzzed by F16s and German Tornado Fighters. Quite exhilarating experience.

[@Wonkabar007]

The low flying training area forms a loop through the mountains, and a big village nearby is called Machynlleth, so the aviation fans call this place the mach loop.

[@Joe8648]

that was a great day to be out there with a camera lol great vid thanks for posting it.

[@77knez]

The typhoons have a weird humming sound when they are coming at the camera. They sound a little different than the other jets. Still awesome though. Best sounding in my opinion are the f15s. My favorite aircraft!
