Training Day: C-130, C-5, KC-10, C-17 | 21x Military Aviation Planespotting Ramstein

Dear friends,
this video was recorded at Ramstein Air Base. There was much C-5, C-17, C-130 and 747 traffic during the last days - also some other planes as you can see. We had great light in the evening and tried to use different positions. It's not easy in Ramstein because the military planes don't care about wind sometimes and it's unclear which direction will be used.
In this video you will see a McDonnell Douglas KC-10 Extender. It's an American aerial refueling tanker. It performed aerial refueling in "Operation Eldorado Canyon" (1986 Libya), the "Operations Desert Shield" and "Desert Storm" (1990-91 Iraq), "Operation Allied Force" (NATO mission in Yugoslavia), "Operation Enduring Freedom" (Afghanistan) and "Operations Iraqi Freedom" and "New Dawn".

Great footage. Was my stomping ground for 6 years, and then came through there many, many more times while stationed in Turkey. You even managed to capture my work center and the PAS's that we used to store cargo for certain missions in.

[@jerryburdick8051]

Thank you so much for these videos. Wonderful memories from living there in the early 1980's. A beautiful area of a beautiful country. Thank you again.

Wow, never have seen such exellent planespotting videos, really impressive, thanks.

I got to agree, really awesome footage, and giving the details is even better, im definitely subscribing, one of my favorite things to do is go plane spotting, if I was there with you I would have felt like I’ve done it all, specially getting to see the military planes you videoed. Thanks again for all the work that goes into showing us all what you have created. Hats off.

No. Was it a wren ?

[@the86kid11]

İt does not striked it just looked like that

[@wyomingbullfighter]

THE777 pilot that’s weird. I just saw a bird and then something fall that resembled a falling bird.

[@mikeygti8930]

It was a birdstrike. Watch on a big screen, comes from left to right, hits the nose gear

[@FeelingENTITLED]

All I can say is WOW! How can you able to record flying aircrafts that close? And it was so CLEAR and SMOOTH. And even if I set the resolution at 720p, it looks like it is in a much higher resolution. AMAZING!

This video is all about landing gear design. Incredible. Ridiculously good video.

[@FRAproductions]

Thank you very much my friend!

[@patrickmollohan3082]

A few of the landings show how well the landing gears are constructed. I'm sure everyone saw at least a few landings that didnt get any butter...lol!! Be that as it is..these pilots all handle these aircraft very well!! Much respect to the flight crews and maintenance crews!!

[@delten-eleven1910]

Love the two perspective videos, great filming. Love the C-5M, but miss the Godzilla-like sound of the -B which stood for beast.

[@sirbader1]

The 747 at around +6:10 sounds very similar.

Pure awesomeness mate. Such fantastic shots.

[@lelekoJumboJet]

06:15 soooo great to hear the CF6-80 roaring! Not all GE-powered 744s roar like that.

[@romeogrigoras9378]

Same that Atlas Air. When it was at EMA-EGNX, when it took of it had no roar when engines were at full throttle.

[@daniloserrano225]

I was fortunate to have flown as a passenger in C5 and 747. Thay are similar in so many ways except the level of noise in a C5 requires you to wear a ear plug handed by the air crew. Ramstein and Rhine Main bring back a lot of good memories in Deutchland while I was working in Kaiserslautern.

Man, you have the best post process of any playespotter I follow. So well done! There's a guy in Japan I follow who is also good. The effort is noticed and appreciated. One thing, the colours look a tiny bit foggy for me. Maybe we are on different colour profiles? I'm not sure. But this is so good!

[@FRAproductions]

Thanks a lot for your good feedback and supporting our channel! 👍During the recording the was really much fog or dirty air that we coudn't remove completely.

RIP National 747. The most horrifying crash I've ever seen. Not sure why the flight times are posted (between bases) - but I guess it does put the locations in perspective. Once the C-5 is put to rest, we'll never get something like that back again.

[@heribaldpudelich]

Ich war ein wenig traurig als das Video vorbei war, weil es so schön ist... Mein Lieblingsmoment war eigentlich, als mir klar wurde, dass von 2 Standorten gefilmt und zusammengeschnitten wurde. Der Aufwand hat sich meiner Meinung nach gelohnt. Als Lieblingsflugzeuge teilen sich die National Airlines 747 (finde ich mittlerweile selten für Ramstein) und die Marines KC-130 die Poleposition. Vielen Dank für eure Arbeit, die ruhige Art zu filmen - was auch auf eine tolle Auswahl des Standortes schließen lässt - und dafür, dass ihr nicht mit Musik hinterlegt habt. Mir ist zum ersten Mal aufgefallen, dass Galaxies scheinbar auf dem hinteren Teil ihrer rechten Seite ein oder zwei Öffnungen - wie Fenster oder Klappen - des Laderaums (?) haben. Mich würde noch interessieren, mit welchen Objektiven und Stative ihr gefilmt habt! Ich bin total gespannt auf das nächste Video von Ramstein und wünsche euch bis dahin noch tausende von Views und Likes!

[@FRAproductions]

Vielen Dank für das gute Feedback. Wir haben ja bereits 2 Ramstein-Videos zuvor veröffentlicht - bis zum nächsten wird es wohl etwas dauern. Zu den beiden Öffnungen der C-5 kann ich momentan nichts sagen... Wir sind zu zweit und haben zwei Sony RX10 IV mit fest verbauten Objektiv (geht bis 600mm). Stative, Gimbals o.ä. nutzen wir nicht, wir stehen meistens ja auf hohen Leitern. Das Video wird dann in Adobe Premiere Pro geschnitten.
