  • damn i love the sound of that bird startin up... now THAT my friends is music

  • What's that Formula 1 sound when they start the engines? It's not the JFS right? Cause that is a turbine engine and a turbine engine does not sound like a Formula 1 car.

  • JFS nearly runs 45 seconds prior to the main engine's start up.....

  • SOUNDS LIKE MY TOYOTA COROLLA

  • A very well done video! I love hearing the PW-229's fire up - the sound is incredible.....

  • Sorry 8127

  • I agree with A8187. The sound of the nozzle adjusting is VERY loud. I was able to hear them on a F-15 on final approach. I was about 1/4 from the end of the runway, on the "HOT" line.

  • Thumbs up 3:16 the most awesome sound EVER !!!

  • Comment removed

  • lol gotta love the wheelie in the end i dont think many ppl realize they are doing a wheelie when they land...show offs lol

  • @jsmoothbx They do a wheelie to slow down faster.

  • So would you say that an Turbine Airstarter is quicker to engine lite off than just useing pure bleed air?

  • AWESOME! Thank you for sharing this video. Great vid, and thanks for not ruining it with music. Nothing beats the sound of a screaming F-15!

  • GREAT!

  • yes this is the best vid yet on youtube

  • Jets from seymour johnson! Looks like there is one from the 334th parked next to it, I used to work on those jets....not gonna lie kind of miss the job. Always cool to hear one of these start up!

  • 1 person has never felt the power of the STRIKE EAGLE! ....perhaps they need a live personal demonstration!!!!

  • One of the best movies around with the authentic F-15 sound! Thanks a lot

  • I agree mega... The 15 is sooo nice looking. The other was the 14.. I loved to watch the variable wings. They would be swept back as he came screaming in then swing out as he pulled a hard turn and slowed to land.

  • 12:15; absolutely sweet combination of maneuvers.....Nice! Considering the field elevation and the DA, they sure made it bite the air that day. Beautiful planform.

  • The F-15, all models... has to be the best looking fighter around. Even as it ages, it just keeps looking better! Thanks for the vid.

  • No I'm not THAT bad of a speller. I'm on my IPhone and the auto spell checker thinks it knows what I want even before I'm done typing the word. If I don't catch, it looks like my last post. Plus the Morphine I'm on for my back does a number. Also, I noticed in this vid that the JFS sounds like it's speeds up just before it disengages. I never heard one that sounded this way.

  • @zarniwoop42

    HMMMMM, well form the sound of it the JFS or APU power's up a turbine airstarter that uses bleed air from the APU.

  • Yup.. This is hands down the best bid AND audio I've seen. U F-15 guys I noticed on here (I mentioned this on another bid of F-15s here) that they pull chokes, pull fwd a bit, then do the checks again. I get the checking but I never got the pulling fwd first. Thanks ahead of time.

  • Outstanding video! Man, I really miss the sound of my F-15.

  • @StdntPilotMark

    Did you work on F-15a? If so where andf when? Worked on the them myself at 4 different bases from 1977 to early 1992.

  • Beautiful vid ! And without the usual stupid heavy-metal music !!! Thanx for posting !

  • best strike eagle demo ive seen hands down

  • When Eagles fly

    Migs die

  • 3:18 = the best sound in aviation

  • I miss being on the flightline retired in 08 wish I could do it all over again!!! Miss my 15's.

  • @AFEaglekeeper

    Join the "club". I worked on -15s for nearly 12 years and retired out in 1992. Been checking out these vids just to see and hear them again.

  • Lord! How I miss the sounds of my F-15 cranking up. Last time I heard it for real was in 1992.

  • @roadrodent1952 Could you maybe tell me how the JFS of the F-15 works? I know how it works on the F-16, just a small turbine but the JFS of the F-15 sounds so different, not like the small turbine of the F-16's JFS. It allmost seems that the actuall turbine is started when the pilot wants to start either engine.

  • What camera did you shoot this with?

  • God this is a sweet video! Thank you so much for posting this!

  • Best F15E vid on the web ! - loved the start up sequence - watched with headphones on..... awesome

  • i love f15/strike eagles an i know im goignt o like the new f15/silent eagle

  • I met both of them at the base in Seymour Johnson, NC really cool guys. great video. 5/5

  • AWESOME! just AWESOME!!! Great demo, the "Mud Hen" looked great, way to get close and film the snot out of the strike eagle!!! Hell of a job keep them coming!

  • Beautiful aircraft! One of my favorites! Great footage, I do have a request... If you ever see an F-4D at an airshow, can you just film the crap out of it, just like this video?

  • SWEET footage. Btw, how do you get vids over 10 minutes? Is it that YT partnership thing?

  • was that an air show in mexico?

  • Glad you went. I didnt get to make it this year):

    Very good footage 5/5
