- Опубліковано 27 жов 2021
- Arguably the greatest air show of force on the planet ???. If you know of better or a similar one then put it in the comments and I'll check it out.
Keep watching over the next few weeks as I'll be uploading all the other demonstrations from the mountain.

THANKS FOR WATCHING

Other countries: endless discussion on what music to play during the airshow.
Switzerland: No discussion. Just fire the onboard cannon.
I love the Hornets.
I love low and fast flight.
This is medecine for my soul.
The Swiss are Mad.
The very best airshow footage I've ever seen!
Excellent photography and recording.
I so wish I had been there. And what a gorgeous place to hold it!
Thank you. 😊
1000x better than a standard airshow display. Absolutely fantastic! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for watching.

I was in Switzerland on a tour from Germany in early 80's and you could see the taxi ways going into the mountain side. Don't remember where that was. They had F-5's then.
I am Navy veteran and retired Army…when we would put on displays, they were called “firepower demonstration”. 🤘🤘🤘
This has to be the best airshow in the world.
Agreed. 👌
Have you seen the others?
@@DafyddPhillips Where is Switzerland is this?
And THANK YOU duo much for this viddie.
The original designers of the Northrop YF-17 Cobra and early prototypes of the McDonnell Douglas F-18A Hornet in the late 1970's must be very proud of what their aircraft went on to become.
The funny thing is that the YF-17 lost or to the YF-16. Thank God the Navy was there during the competition/demos
Fun fact, the YF17 design comes from the F5 Tiger. Knowing that the YF17 lead to the F18 hornet that means that the F5 is a bit like the Grandfather of the F18 and both are still flying in the Swiss Air Force.
I know I'm not the only one to feel like this, but I'm soooo jealous!
Absolutely amazing backdrop and some superb footage as always. Thanks for sharing again Sir 👍🏻
Thank you.
Aha ))) 50th years olde figters ))

This has to be a bucket list event for every aviation fan.
Agreed. 😎👍
@@DafyddPhillips Is this a yearly event? Tickets for sale? I've been to countless Air Shows ( Paris Air, Confederate Air Force show Texas, Reno 10+ and dozens of locals). As an Army Huey Repairman and door gunner with a pilots license, I would give a left testicle for this. Aviation Fan? Hell Yes !
@@mattpetty1 No tickets needed it's free. You only have to get there. Axalp in the region of Interlaken.
F/A-18C is beauty. Mountains is beauty. Airshow... I'd like to see it!
Wow...that is some clinched teeth flying.
Fantastic!
😭💔🇾🇪👉🇸🇦
8 minutes of flares, cannon and high G manoeuvres. Lovely! 👌
Happy you enjoyed Adam 😎
No matter how many times and from different points of view I see it, I'm still in awe.
This has got to be the best place for an air show in the world... I think I've just added another item to my bucket list.
This is not an airshow, its "just" a training with audience. :)
Absolutely awesome Dafydd 👌 The sneak pass was awesome! but the single F18 1:53 coming up the valley with Flares steals it for me!!
Cheers Elwyn. I’m hoping someone can steer us to a show to match this. 👌
👍
Best location for an airshow EVER. You get an airshow in 3D with some manouvers beginning below you. And with live fire too? Are you kidding me!

Самое лучшее применение военной техники это парады и показательные выставки
At .23 are you fu*king kidding me? Damn that was some insane g’s. Honestly, one of the coolest vids I’ve seen showcasing aircraft in service and not altered for airshows.
Magnificent stuff, thank you Daf! 🤩
*Me clicking on video:* There's no way this is the best.
*Me 60 seconds in:* Live Gatling gun rounds? Okay, this is the best.
Happy you enjoyed it 😎👍
Real fire exhibition, no any other air show surpasses that! 💥💥💥👌🤟
Truly the best air show I’ve ever seen on YT. I just saw Top Gun Maverick at an AMC theater last Saturday and I gotta say, these video scenes can compete with the scenes in the movie. Swiss pilots a tremendous!
The back drop scenes are awesome. The flying is pretty special.
And the video is priceless 🤠
Thank you. Appreciated
chills
I just love the sounds so much
the little 'vvrt' after a couple rounds were fired, i can't its like the plane itself goes 'Oooh'
wow, the accuracy! Another great capture. Thanks
Thank Mike
I had no idea the level of precision till I saw this video. The hitting of those orange targets. Amazing.
Funny how I can’t get enough of this video and keep coming back to it. No joke, it’s the best I’ve seen that shows the true combat capabilities of the F-18. I wasn’t a big F-18 fan, that is until I saw this video. Nice job!
Happy you enjoy it. Appreciate you watching 👍😎
Some of these are in the UK at the moment for an exercise. One caused a sonic boom, over parts of Yorkshire. It was reported as an earthquake!
We still have F-5s in the south of Chile, they are very well updated and they are lethal, fully equipped with bombs and missiles with 3d helmets, digital screens and modern radars. Here they are called Tigre ll, they have already completed 40 years of service and will be given Low in a few more years, but they are still in perfect condition and modernized to almost F-16 standards, greetings.-

Messing with the Swiss Air Force would be a poor life decision, noted.
Especially when they are flying American aircraft.
I didn’t even know they had an Air Force. They’ve always stayed out of war.
Haha. Well these planes are a little ancient and everyone should thank us for saving the world and creating the technology for everyone to use.
Must be fun watching from on top of a mountain.👍

Top gear again, reminds me of my time in the gulf war when we had two hornets from Independence doing gunnery practise on our Larrn Target streamed 100 yds astern. When they finished we had a private air show rolls loops low low passes sound barrier smashed and to finish off they at, no kidding, about 100ft ripped past and at the bridge wing stood the two jets on their arse straight-up rolling out of sight. Keep up the great footage.
Never gets old. Thank you 👍👍👍
Cheers Scott 😎👍
That was amazing!
*lights and takes a heavy draw off a cigarette while smiling.
Man !! You’re selling Dream! Great shot! Keep going !!
Thank you 😎👍
This is absolutely awesome flying and encredible sound
As a retired sailor I can tell you that this display was tame to the ones we get at sea with no FAA restrictions.
We would be doing plane guard for the carrier and the f18s would buzz by at Mach 2. Absolutely AWESOME power!
if youve never been to axalp or mach loop,, you have no idea what your talking about.. live fire and jets flying under and over you within 50 feet..youre insane
@@johnnyllooddte3415 wth? What's your issue bud? No one was saying it wasn't a good display. Just the ones at sea are better. No restrictive faa regs to deal with. Go eat a baby Ruth from the commode!
Just when I think I'm not likely to be wowed, again, you share with us this utterly stupendous video. I can only imagine how amazing it would be to join all of those photographers and videographers in witnessing such a magnificent display of military airmanship. I'm sitting here just gobsmacked! Thanks, Dafydd, for sharing this!
appreciate you watching David
Absolutely BRILLIANT Camerawork........THE BEST.......
Thanks Michael

Fabulous airshow and camera work!
Awesome 👍👍 that close to live fire has to be exciting great video
Great catch of the gun gas! 🤙🏼😁
Flip, that got me out my seat. My adrenalin pumping. Thanks Dafydd.
Glad you enjoyed it!👍
Amazing location for an airshow. Great footage, Thanks for sharing.
Thank you.
I was in San Fran. for fleet week, I remember walking about city hearing jets ahead, but seeing nothing. I thought to myself that how crazy an AO must be from the ground; if you heard those engines and lived , you lucky lol. At home I lived under a flight line for aircraft that did the Football games fly over after the anthem. I would always be grilling at 1pm to see them fly over. Many a time it was A-10 Hogs. So close you can read, see rivets and pilot.
Very cool! Fleet week is on my bucket list. Maybe 2024.
Thanks for watching 👍
Wow. Live ammunition being used. Definitely a great show.
It was pretty special ✈️👌
Daff, this video was beyond awesome.
Your most accomplished brainchild to date and you've got quite a few master pieces.
Your stills , specially that capturing the cannon muzzle blast, were through the roof.
I guess Axalp is what Mach Loop dreams of when it becomes older.
Altogether my most exciting video lenght minutes worth today and for time to come.
Daff , you've pinned on a high ranking photographic 🥇 today on your chest.
Have to agree with all of this - awesome footage

@@rogerkay8603 thanks also Roger.
Great flying skill and my salute to the daredevil pilots
thhat beautiful backdrop makes it a lot easier to see a grey jet , than as a sillhouette against a grey sky ! Top man Daf .
Cheers Fred 👍
Потрясающее зрелище!! Фантастика!! Сплошной восторг!! Спасибо вам!!
НЕ ДОСМОТРЕЛА , НЕВОЗМОЖНО , НЕРВЫ НЕ ВЫДЕРЖИВАЮТ . КРАСИВО И ОЧЕНЬ , ОЧЕНЬ ОПАСНО !!!!!
Simply awesome! Do you think we will get a 'live fire' exercise around the match loop Dafydd?!
Dafydd, yet again you have put together some absolutely superb footage and stills.
I'll be watching this later on the big screen to get the full effect.
I'm totally in awe of your skills with these video's and stills 👏👏👏👏
Keep them coming 👍😁
Thanks as always Andy. Axalp was a great experience🇨🇭✈️👌

Приятно видеть работу профессионалов !!!
I remember being in the Swiss Alps almost 30 years ago and what a strange sensation it was to hear and get glimpses of F-5's flying below in the valleys! I can only imagine being that up close to those Hornets there!
It was October 1987, and my wife and I were on our first trip to Europe. We chose to drive around Switzerland for week 1 because of the mix of languages and cultures -- and the gorgeous scenery and lovely small towns and villages. Apparently, the Swiss have many military exercises at that time of year. Outside of Chur, we stopped at a local gas station to refuel. At the next pump, a Swiss army 4x4 pulled up, a couple of soldiers got out and refueled their jeep-like transport. Biggest difference from our car: the Swiss vehicle was equipped with a nice recoilless gun (about 105mm) on a swivel mount. Imagine seeing that vehicle in your rear-view mirror on the highway -- would clear traffic in an instant! Later, we pulled into a small hamlet but had to thread our way around a military checkpoint. The Swiss had turned the village into a strong point -- HQ troops in military vehicles in the central plaza while others ringed the town taking up defensive positions. A day or so later, we pulled into Andermatt only to find military convoys moving through town and taking up positions in the hills. Was like being on a giant movie set! We had coffee and cakes and at a café and took in the show before moving on to take a car train through the mountains to Brig. Loved it.
@@johnc2438 Q
I love how they have the IAD on the drop tanks for interrogations. Just incase you did not know you were in trouble when you look over your wing and see a F/A 18 formed on your wing they have the damn radio channel that they will be yelling at you at painted on the fuselage.
This is one of the best air shows i've ever seen! BRRRRRRRRR
It's amazing very nice 👍
Thank you.
Your most welcome it's very nice view
Very marvellous photos and videographyof the live firing of the Swiss Hornets 😎👍
Thanks Douglas 😎👍
@@DafyddPhillips you are gladly welcome 😁😎
Wow this is awesome! Would love to see it live.
Just one word: WOW! 👌
Stunning. Photography, flying and scenery!
Many thanks!
Awesome! I love the amazing sound!

Потрясающая техника великой Америки. Вот как работают профессионалы. Это не рашка на деревянных этажерках.
Amazing!!!
Can't find a better show than this in the states. People here in that U.S. would go nuts if the military wanted to put on a live fire show for the public.
🇨🇭🇨🇭💪💪

Wow...you could actually see those pilots hitting there target with what I presume was the automatic gun fire.Man those guys are good.Gotta admit, as a kid it was my dream to become a fighter pilot.Boy do I envy those guys and wish them safe flying 👍👏
Qytr
some missiles off the wingtip would have made my day
Wow, looking down at a air show. epic.
Your stunning pictures just feel so close I can almost touch all those Hornets. Wow!
Thank you.
Top notch video - thanks for the hard work!
Thanks Chris. The Swiss did us great 🇨🇭👌
Magnifique démonstration de vol à travers les montagnes suisses. Virtuosité des pilotes beauté des avions, panorama superbe et prises de vues incroyables. Avoir l’appareil sur le même plan de vision ne peut se concevoir qu’en montagne ou à bord d’un autre appareil.Bravo aux forces aériennes suisses.
