2011 Viper West Ride A Long

[kensethp12345]

Great Song for a Great soldier for the GREAT country United States of America

Just think, the F-16 has been doing this for more than 30 years. Still the best there is, bar none. The Pride of Fort Worth. Made in USA.

[icrywheniweewee]

@JetMechMA actually the parts are made in the USA but assembled in china...like everything else

[JetMechMA]

@icrywheniweewee What's that? I didn't get your meaning.

[JetMechMA]

I love watching these videos. Each pilot is different in how they handle the violent maneuvers. Some pilots are just built for it. They're supermen and it shows. They take the Gs with ease. Then there are those who it looks tough on them. They get slammed around in their straps and you can tell it's hard on them. But they have a heart like a lion and they tough it out. This is where they get the phrase "Man up" from. From the ground they all look the same....because they ARE the same. Heroes.

good seeing all of you guys at miramar last weekend!!

[originalstriker]

this guys eyes pop out on every g turn maybe time to turn in your wings...?

[BAACCOOOOCk]

@originalstriker I say if you can pull that many G's you can do whatever you want lol

[JetMechMA]

@originalstriker His EYES aren't popping out, he's looking up, clearing his turn. For crying out loud.

[JBirdDrmmr]

Whats the song playing here?

[theDesertSage]

damn good job....



[calgaryguy110]

These guys landed in Calgary today...got to talk with Capt Dover when he got out of the jet... very knowledgeable and probably the nicest guy on the go... said it was his first time in Canada... they flew from Utah to Great Falls Montana to pick up gas and it was his first time over his home state. We are lucky to have the big metal from the states up here and we are pretty happy to have these guys...Big thanks to our american neighbors...be at the show in Airdrie this weekend.

[smoore1962]

Got to ask, why is he breathing so hard at around the 3:00 mark?

[sqeekyfoot]

pulling G's = Eyes closed?

[javierborja06]

Get to see Viper West every time they take their birds out for a ride at Hill AFB...Thank you guys for the great show, I look like a retard out there sometimes but I don't care lol

[USAFcrazy13]

@javierborja06 Lucky my cousin was in VW but I only got to see them once. I would love to see them again.

[Normaltree]

hey guys keep up that great work ! Why Mace had this name tag Patch?

[VprWstOpi]

@Normaltree Its a tradion for Capt Dover to swap name badges with his lead crew chief right before he flies. Once he lands and gets out of the jet, they swap them back.

[leefuji]

@VprWstOpi Great Video/Song. 1:40 - 1:50 = Goosebumps and also shows what a beast this machine is and what the pilot has to go through. amazing dude !!

[momflute]

awesome! I am a fighter pilot in my mind. so awesome! thx for the ride.

Are you performing at the Fargo Airshow this year? Any fan of JSS is A-OK in my book!!

[Swiftmaxu]

Nice clip! But it looks to me as if the seat bealts aren´t properly tightened for aerobatics as his upper torso is moving around quite a bit and inverted looks rather awkward even with just -1g?

[Nappi91]

Who sings this song?

[VprWstOpi]

@Nappi91 THAT wonderful song is titled "Brothers In Arms" by the project W.E.T. The singer, Mr Jeff Scott Soto, is one of my fave singers of all time, and just a really great person and friend. I HIGHLY reccomend checking out the entire album on iTunes... had Jeff not been released from Journey in 2007, THIS is what we could've got from them :-)

[pimpmycnc]

Why does Capt. Dover often close his eyes by pulling the bird up? Is it just because of the sun?

[MsMercury]

Very cool to watch but couldn't stomach actually being in one. My dad was a helicopter pilot and that was enough for me. Great music! JSS rocks!

[Nappi91]

More please. Haha Great job on the video. Ever thought of mounting one on his helmet or does the Air Force not like it when you stick things on their helmets?

[CamelotShadow]

That was fun!

[VprWstOpi]

For those wondering, Capt Dover flies with an HD GoPro Hero. I try as hard as I can to make really exciting & fun videos (check out all the vids from last year) but I am limited to only having Audacity to edit my music & Windows movieMaker to do the rest :-(

[timnevan]

Very cool! I loved the knife edge all the way down the runway! What camera did you use?

[drkucalo1]

This is like the best job ever.
