19th Fighter Squadron's F-15 Fini Flight

LtCol Brian "Barley" Baldwin pilots the 19FS's
Fini Flight on 21SEPT2010. Senior Airman Michael Cowley,
Broadcaster from Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, flew along
to capture video footage and photos.

The route started at JBER, circled around Mount McKinley, over
Mount Redoubt and several other volcanos, and over much of the
Kenai Penensula in Alaska.

This jet, along with many other jets that have already been transferred,
will be reassigned to the 104th Fighter Wing at Barnes Air National
Guard Base in Westfield, Mass. LtCol Gregory Miller, 19FS
Commander, and LtCol Baldwin, 19FS Assistant Director of
Operations, will be flying the jet to Barnes on September 24, 2010.

Absolutely wonderful footage of some truly spectucular scenery. Thank you for posting it on youtube for all to enjoy.

Good luck to all the men and women of the 19th Fighter Sqdn for their future redeployment.

Wow. Incredibly spectacular scenery. Powerful old jet indeed. Probably some of the most beautiful HD cockpit footage on Youtube, anywhere. Excellent upload.. Not sure if Barnes, Mass can duplicate this flight terrain, but good luck. :) I'm curious if JBER is picking up a replacement sqd at all, or just downsizing?
