When Free Bird kicks in on MSFS 2020.

SC Designs F-16. MSFS 2020.

[@charonsferryold]

Despite violating every regulation the USAF could possibly place on a pilot, this is the most American video I have ever seen.

[@zacbarth7795]

Maverick energy

[@garfocusalternate]

14 CFR 91.117(c): No person may operate an aircraft in the airspace underlying a Class B airspace area designated for an airport or in a VFR corridor designated through such a Class B airspace area, at an indicated airspeed of more than 200 knots (230 mph). 14 CFR 91.119: Except when necessary for takeoff or landing, no person may operate an aircraft below the following altitudes: ... (b.) Over any congested area of a city, town, or settlement, or over any open air assembly of persons, an altitude of 1,000 feet above the highest obstacle within a horizontal radius of 2,000 feet of the aircraft. 14 CFR 91.13 No person may operate an aircraft in a careless or reckless manner so as to endanger the life or property of another. Also pretty sure he busted that bravo without clearance unless he was previously cleared to invent his own Hudson Corridor, in which case the FAA would probably have a word with the controller. I think those are the main violations, although anyone else can jump in and add their own.

It's easier to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission.

If they didn't intend for an F-16 to fly between the buildings, they wouldn't have made the street the width of an F-16.

[@titanuranus]

Your logic is irrefutable.

[@SomeDudeInBaltimore]

Suddenly, a building to building pedestrian bridge says WASSAP.

[@mohammadjavadmonjezi]

[@bryku]

It sounds more like a street problem than an f-16 problem if you ask me.

[@MaverickF1]

A320 fits nicely as well😉

[@zfalen]

Imagine just driving your car in New York and you see an F-16 fly literally just 100ft above you

[@BonesCapone]

Imagine you're chillen in your 5th story apartment, and an F-16 rips by at Mach 1.2 - 10 feet below you.

[@lost70s]

that would be fuk'n cool any where .... once in the Utah desert I had a B1 go over at about 500 FT over head , came up behind me .. I was in a convertible LOL didn't know what the hell the sound was till he was starting to pass over ...

[@Joe-xr2xl]

Mythbusters have actually proven that sonic booms cannot shatter glass. I guess by Adam and Jamie's logic there was no need for all the windows to be taped up when they were testing Concorde back in the 1960's, except that was aired long after then.

[@te_rt]

[@NuclearSunshineSB]

I remember a fighter pilot on a podcast mentioning, how it was a real issue back in desert storm, when they did low level flying and the textures and meshes wouldn't load in time. That's why they had speed limits for supersonic fighters below 5000ft

There actually more room in between the buildings for the plane than it may look like but it is not an irrational fear at all... It is a very rational ...

I’ll always remember doing similar with various planes in GTA San Andreas whenever Free Bird came on (in game radio). There was nothing like zooming through “The Strip” in Las Venturas, the remote desert areas or pretending to leave SA behind by flying out over the waters, away from the city. Just me, myself, and I flying sky high in my own little _free bird_ of freedom. 🤘🏻
