Awesome. The best crazy chopper pilots in the world are Kiwis. They do s#$t that makes your hair stand on end. Love flying with them. Love the sheep as well. Go the Dilli Commandos.
@tpaladino The whole idea of using helicopters for this vid is to take the piss out of fast jet pilots because they never go anywhere on ops. That's what makes it funny.
@mcharles64 - to be fair, I would have interpreted the "75SQN" shown on the whiteboard at 3:45 as a reference to the RNZAF Skyhawk squadron.
I suppose it could have been a reference to the RAAF Squadron - which would probably be unfair, since they did actually deploy on Ops in 2003 (even if only briefly)
I am a female pilot in the military and let me tell you that it's difficult for me to meet guys outside this field. I've been on dates a few times before and guys become intimidated as soon as I mention what I do as an occupation. It seems to have the reverse with my (male) pilot colleagues.
I will definitely share this clip with my friends XD LOL
Wait, New Zealand doesn't actually have any jet fighters anymore... they cancelled a lease agreement for 28 F-16's and officially scrapped their combat air force altogether. They had like a dozen old A-4's but sold them off too. So, no more jet fighters at all over there...
I wonder if this video had anything to do with that.
have you notest that all pilots act like that, espechaly the F16 pilots, its like thay think thay are move stars or sumthing and you will allways see them in the morror
you have no idea what it would mean to me if a pilot actually wanted to talk to me about aerodynamics or dogfighting techniques , im just in love with jets .
Very funny, skilled musician as well. Seems true for fighter pilots, wonder why ceskazbrojovka17HMR seems upset about this? I would try the link with his name but I'm worried about it hooking up to a gay or animal sex site.
theres a few super hornet pilots down at ardu at raaf edn i showed a few of the pilots this today and they couldent stop laughing at the payouts at the sqn's
It's too bad the F-20 Tigershark (highly upgraded single-engine multirole version of the F-5) didn't go into production...I think it would have been a good aircraft for the RNZAF since it could do air defence (including BVR), maritime strike (Mavericks) and hauling bombs.
@ryanlim2002 Half-way there. The UH-1 that the RNZAF operates only has one jet. The two-engine variant didn't come along until the UH-1N "Twin Huey." Canada operated quite a few of them. Maybe the RNZAF will upgrade to something like the Canadians' CH-146 Griffon? Still a hilarious vid.
the brake and pass never works anymore.... pulling negative G's makes you lose shittons of airspeed and you stall. then they shoot a missile up your ass.
Yeah hey man, I only just heard about the accident on ANZAC day, I'm ex army myself and was too busy up here 'sharing' the kiwi ANZAC day culture I forgot to follow what was going on back home.
My heart goes out to you. I just read the article in the Dom Post, and looked up this video. I'm a Wellingtonian. :) Never stop singing you're awesome!
It sucks that a labour government could axe the skyhawk and the purchase of the F16s,I'm a proud kiwi but our country is overrun by Greeny politically correct homos we don't even let nuclear powered ships in to our country some one save us from these drop kicks. New Zealand is a great example why not to let a woman run your country
i also met a united states marine pilot he was a medal of honor winner he served in WWII:he was also at pearl habor when it was bombed the battles were midway, coral sea, iwo jima and he also served in korea and vietanm he died at the age of 97 due to prostate cancer but he did his job and he did it well so fighter pilots are not just assholes like this song would like to have people believe
they have to be over confident to be fighter pilot cause their job is tough if they are a real fighter pilot even though ground units hate them they wont be able to get the job done with out them airforce and fighterplanes are a nessisity
This is so funny and so true. I wasn't aircrew but I was in an Air National Guard fighter wing (F-4's, F-16's) and have been around jet jocks quite a bit. How do you know if you're in the same room as a fighter pilot? He (or she) will tell you. Excellent, FltLt Costley.
As someone who flew jets about 30 years ago in the UK I just loved this video and song. So true! When I meet up with my old colleagues for a few beers my wife tells me that we do wave our hands in the air! I have many friends in NZ and go there quite often. Couldn't believe it when the loony left government axed the fighter arm of the RNZAF. If a 9/11 scenario ever happened in NZ the nearest fighters are 4 hrs away in Australia! They forget a governments 1st duty is to protect the population.
I think you're forgetting about the RNZAF helicopters that travel at mach 3, like the razor blade, you know.. So NZ is highly protected from any 9/11 situation.
@mike5012tx Affirmative! : looney lefties screwing up. In the US, the left wing nutcase in the Oval Office has disbanded numerous fighter units, and mothed hundreds of pointy nose birds. It sucks for readiness.
@mike5012tx hey mike. we have FA/18s that fly mack 1.8, twice the speed of sound. we would be there in minutes. not hours. and i think we would come for our NZ brothers.
@TheDudeFrom0Z Mate, when you will you stop? Lets say that Wellington was attacked, the nearest RAAF base is over 2200km away. Even if the Hornets flew at their top speed, it would still take over an hour. Not to mention the huge amount of fuel that would be required to fly that far at that speed. They would be out of fuel after 15 minutes (max) flying at Mach 1.8. Then they would have to refuel atleast 3 more times to make it. Before posting something, have a read over it, and do some research.
@TheDudeFrom0Z You tried to help me? By what? You're a fuckwit mate. And if you're wondering how I know your speading bullshit, click on my username and see what comes up. Fuckwit.
@ceskazbrojovka17HMR I agree completely. Lets also not forget that with the large tanks needed to get from Australia to NZ fitted the top speed would be limited to well under mach 1 in fact more like about 500 kts the same as the average airliner.
@TheDudeFrom0Z Mach 1.8 for about 15 minutes before the fuel ran out therefore just about 1200 miles allowing for climb to hight and acceleration. For range at supersonic speeds you need to be at about 30000 or the airframe overheats in about 5 minutes.
@mike5012tx To be fair, how many people do you hear saying: "You know who are raging assholes who deserve our wrath? New Zealanders"? I do agree that the loss of the fighters was sad though.
@JamaicanPhoenix Unfortunately the militant islamists would look at Auckland and call it sinful in their narrow minded eyes. They'd probably go loopy when they saw K Road.
@mike5012tx Only countries with imperialistic habits have problems with 9/11 scenarios happening. I am betting that Kiwi's are not losing sleep over the thought. You may also have noticed the largest Air Force on the planet could not do anything to prevent 9/11.
@Cumulonimbis True 'coz they weren't expecting it, now that the world is wise to 9/11 type attacks it makes sense to be prepared. Lets face it what have the Aussies ever done to anyone? It didn't stop the Bali bombings did it!
Crazy Aussies. It's not their self indulgent. They are very cocky but that just goes with the job. As a fighter pilot if you're not the best then you're dead so they are constantly in friendly competition.
Yeeah... this is the RNZAF not the RAAF.. Having said that, you're exactly right about it coming with the job, because lets face it - they are pretty fucking awesome, and they deserve credit for working so hard to get to where they are.
Look at the air victories over Middle east, Falkland, Bosnia, and Iraq. The pilots and a/c that were shot down were not necessarily poorly trained pilots. On the contrary, they were good and courageous. But that doesn't matter much. For any organization, they were willing to comprise a certain number of pilots and a/c to achieve certain objectives. The military's role is to condition the pilots to be able to sacrifice themselves. And biggest human weakness is self indulgence.
I think there's a reason behind the culture and the AF as an organization to support the cockiness in a fighter. It's a war of attrition, most fighter pilots, statistically speaking, would be targets for the few bright ones. Or just targets to delay pace of war. Like a foot soldier, they need to be cocky enough to not fear death and not care the odds. They are the pawns. They need to have blind faith.

@mike5012tx Only countries with imperialistic habits have problems with 9/11 scenarios happening. I am betting that Kiwi's are not losing sleep over the thought. You may also have noticed the largest Air Force on the planet could not do anything to prevent 9/11.

@Cumulonimbis True 'coz they weren't expecting it, now that the world is wise to 9/11 type attacks it makes sense to be prepared. Lets face it what have the Aussies ever done to anyone? It didn't stop the Bali bombings did it!

Crazy Aussies. It's not their self indulgent. They are very cocky but that just goes with the job. As a fighter pilot if you're not the best then you're dead so they are constantly in friendly competition.

Yeeah... this is the RNZAF not the RAAF.. Having said that, you're exactly right about it coming with the job, because lets face it - they are pretty fucking awesome, and they deserve credit for working so hard to get to where they are.

Look at the air victories over Middle east, Falkland, Bosnia, and Iraq. The pilots and a/c that were shot down were not necessarily poorly trained pilots. On the contrary, they were good and courageous. But that doesn't matter much. For any organization, they were willing to comprise a certain number of pilots and a/c to achieve certain objectives. The military's role is to condition the pilots to be able to sacrifice themselves. And biggest human weakness is self indulgence.

I think there's a reason behind the culture and the AF as an organization to support the cockiness in a fighter. It's a war of attrition, most fighter pilots, statistically speaking, would be targets for the few bright ones. Or just targets to delay pace of war. Like a foot soldier, they need to be cocky enough to not fear death and not care the odds. They are the pawns. They need to have blind faith.
