That was awesome. The video wasn’t gyro stabilized or rigged with a soundtrack, and as a result I feel like it captured the essence of crewing for the U-2 beautifully! 10/10!

That was a great inside look at takeoff and landing. Super cool. Thanks for sharing.

[@dennisryckman5210]

THAT IS FREAKING AWESOME!!!

[@pz2233]

I know the other people in the car!!! I recognized their voices immediately and I remember them telling me they got to do this. So awesome!

[@olspanner]

Never saw or knew of this process before----- Absolutely Brilliant. Great work by all involved!

[@tractorhead04]

Very delicate cooperation procedure needed for takeoff and landing. Slow, but mighty good climber and high alt aircraft, she is.

[@Владимир.З-к4п]

Very interesting. Thank you.

I saw a U-2 flying at Joint Base Andrews about 6.5 years ago. He took off and pulled up into 45 degree nose up attitude after a short takeoff roll. After it was back on the ground, they had a barrier and some armed guards surrounding it, because as I said to one of the guards, “A real magician never reveals his secrets.”

Fantastic! Also caught by Russia?

[@stevendorris5713]

Sweet AF!!!

[@MachineHeadDissent]

So very cool…🤙😎🤘

[@Paradise_Arms]

Didn't know the u2 was so loud!

[@GracemarieJohnson2763]

Same here! I thought it was supposed to be quiet because it was a spy plane. But man, I was so wrong.

[@zonda16]

Is this the oldest aircraft in our inventory still flying?

[@MikoyanGurevichMiG21]

That'd be the C-130 and B-52. The holy Trinity of the 50s now that you think about it.

[@zonda16]

@@MikoyanGurevichMiG21 all the C-130s are a newer version I meant the year built. The B52 then. Thanks

[@skisalomon81]

​@zonda16 oldest B52 we have is from the early 60's currently. There's still plenty of KC135's in service from the 50's though.🎉

[@GilsonJr.Whitout.Numbers]

Amazing softness... 👏👏👏👏

Huh? Seems overly laborious and time consuming. But rolls right off the ground. Impressive.
