[SuperLilrobbie24]

[SuperPutts1979]

2 people are Blue Angels pilots

[JZnative1]

I went to the Amigo Airsho at El Paso, Tx. Blue Angels were there, They are both great.

[JZnative1]

Is that the F-14

[mechanic7866]

@JZnative1 i think its the f-16

[85043Concho]

hahaha..that day was fun i made it in the f22 lucky..



[iDayVin]

That part where one jet sneaks up behind the crowd and scares everyone with the loud bang gets me every time. The USAF Thunderbirds came to Guam twice and I watched both shows, and even though I knew it would happen, it still scares me. XD

[bailnaloka]

Thunderbird #2 always the one with technical difficulties. I saw them down in Florida and he had to land mid show.

[USAF2409]

I love the song at 11 25 - 15 30! Remember watching the Thunderbirds when my dad was with them.

[USAF2409]

Love the start up!

[MoSchool]

Last time I saw them live was back in the 80's in San Diego(Blue Angels town). Great vid Spence, I enjoy it very much.

[MegaHalomasta]

[N134JC]

[TomcatFanatic123]

GREAT video! Anybody got the song at 20:42? It sounds familiar, but I can't place it. Thanks :)

[monchichi428]

good show but too many cut out of it

[iCryonikz]

Badass!

[dskxalive]

I wish i was born in america! Just to see these great aircraft!

[TumisHumis]

Glad I was born in America.

[tigersport17]

transformers soundtrack 15:38

[chrisakky]

That was soo cheesy I think I might throw up!

But I'l forgive them since they are some of the best pilots I've ever seen. You Americans should be proud!

[ThatxStaphyy]

I really hate when they play the music, I just want to hear them engines roar. Those are music to my ear =)

[ThatxStaphyy]

I was there! =D I was standing around looking for the airplanes and all of a sudden right from behind BAM! It was freaking LOUD!

[Hornet5823]

15 min. and still didnt take off.

[CUONGD209]

can alan szabo do it?

[legocomedeyman]

wait wait wait i thought the afb was supposed to be in may

[drix1020041]

great video. cannot wait to see them at RAF waddington in July.

[tellemscrappy]

There flight is sharp as hell...my flight could never do that...that perfectly

[feenix1188]

Best part is at 22:20...

"Have you seen the Blue Angels do that?"

To be fair, I haven't seen one of their shows in a while and I'm still at joint pilot training in Pensacola, so much love to them.

[reesyboy93]

I don't think the level of skill on the ground is as impressive as in the sky. Sorry guys (ground crew)

[planecrazynl]

ohw ive forgot to thank you Spencer for this long video, its good you are doing workout because it burns like hell in the musscles so now and then.

keep rollin rollin rollin.

[planecrazynl]

real amazing at 22:26 , do they play the music also in the cockpitt.GREAT.

what a fantastic show the Thunderbirds are giving in 2011, can't wait to see them in Belgium in July.BIG THUMBS UP FOR THE WHOLE CREW ESPECIALLY FOR THE PILOTS. NR1 F-16 Demonstration Team of the World.

maybe you could do a formation with our solo display F-16 pilot Hitec.

[klangdell]

@planecrazynl They don't play any music in the cockpits, LOL! The ground crew however listens in and knows the exact parameters, speed and distance the pilot is at certain callouts and times the music (that's already pre-mixed) to the show. ;)

[bleyland629]

Great Vid but the ground crew look a bit stupid sometimes LOL my bad for saying that but I had to. Good Job Guys

[roro560v8]

Good job

[AliceFallenFox]

i saw those stunts today!

[Solidifyyyy]

This is great! Very high quality filming also. Nice work. :)

[acfd698]

Great job getting the entire show.

[UNSClead1]

Thats sad. They had the F-16D with the number 2 already painted on it.

[UNSClead1]

I've always loved watching the Diamond Aileron Roll. You always see one a little late. It's funny.

[Alexsandre1959]

SUPER !!!

[ktm511]

Nice to see the D model with the tank under it. lol

[MrThatsYe]

wow, I love the USAF Thunderbirds but EXTREMELY disappointed in their shitty selection of music this year.

[UNSClead1]

@MrThatsYe I agree.

[JuiceLBK]

Every Airshow I go to there is always a problem with a Blue Angel or a Thunderbird lol

[tdarthur]

wow the scream from the jets give me chills

[AvengedSevenfold9000]

The Thunderbirds put on a great Air Show

[INSANEBOUNCER]

Respect to the men that fly these amazing machines! :)

[lukepevensie]

hey how come there are headphones on the viper

[airshow4444]

First video I've seen this year of the TBs. Nice filming! Thanks for cutting out "Nap Time" (end of runway checks) too :)

[bassplaya1549]

I don't know. The women announcer thing doesn't really trip my trigger. Nothing against women since their once was a women Thunderbird Pilot...

[mattmall]

red arrows are better lol joke

[willutw]

10:25

1,000 mph? more like 650

[taktikal24]

@willutw

they reference the closing rate, not speed.

[kevindickens001]

How come number 2 takes off as a single seater jet and lands as a two seater jet? Was this filmed over two different days?

[viperpilot04]

@kevindickens001 There's a 2-seater waiting at the end of the runway for the show so in case there's a problem with one of the jets, the pilot can quickly jump out and get in the spare before takeoff. This isn't 2 different days.

[spencerhughes2255]

@kevindickens001 I think there was a problem with Thunderbird #2. This is one demonstration. Filmed this whole video during the Saturday show.

[ECgod77]

@kevindickens001 actually, if you look carefully, you"ll see that at take off #2 was a 2 seater. They must of swapped planes before they took off.

[airshow4444]

@ECgod77 we always say, its not a TB show until a jet breaks down or they encounter some problem lol

[ECgod77]

@airshow4444 Actually, that's pretty true. The last time I saw them, one jet had a problem with the landing gear and almost had to do a crash landing. haha

[leadsologtoctsv]

@airshow4444  Ahh, no........That's The Blue Angels.

[airshow4444]

@leadsologtoctsv lol it plagues all teams. Thats the reason they have backup jets at the end of the runway ready to go to minimize any delays.

[spencerhughes2255]

@ECgod77 Yes, Thunderbird #2 did have a problem & swapped planes before take-off.

[spencerhughes2255]

@kevindickens001 Read the description.

[AirshowUniverse]

amazing! (:
