Make sure to turn your volume up to fully enjoy the bone shaking qualities of four GE F404 engines in full afterburning splendor.

And if your connection is good enough, make sure to watch in HD! I found that I had to let the video buffer completely however, otherwise the frame rates are very choppy. If you don't watch in HD, the picture quality issues of You Tube make it impossible to see the afterburning goodness.

Subject: Naval Air Facility El Centro, solo launch with dirty roll and low transition/pitch up. Lead Solo flying #7 and Opposing Solo flying #5 due to a mechanical issue with the #6 jet.

God bless the USA! I'm personally blessed to get the chance to go to Winter Training regularly, so I just have to say I'm so thankful for what the Lord gives me. Not only does He provide for my every need, He gives me the opportunity and luxury to pursue my hobby and spend time chasing birds around. Many people would love to be able to do this stuff but can't for various reasons. I'm thankful to be able to travel back and forth and see these guys do what they do, representing the men and women that serve. Not to mention I'm also thankful for having a understanding fiancee! She knows how much I love jet noise!

  • you didnt catch the maximum performance take off....eh.

  • Watch my other video and you'll see it MUCH closer than you imagined.

  • i went last monday and they werent there. i was wondering when is the best day to go....thanks for uploading these videos!!

  • Thursdays & Saturdays have surfaced as the 1st "over the field" practices. Now those are the 1s to see, since so far all other days involve practicing over ShadeTree. The only thing to watch for is theyve been kind of unpredictable on the times. For instance, they typically fly 2 practices over the field, yet there have been a couple days when they would only fly the 0830, or only fly the 1230. So you just have to be there & be ready.

    Sucks they werent going up for you. How far did you drive?

see all
