    you photographers guys should share the photos with the pilots directly, like on shared Google photos albums. I'm sure they'd love to see them, it's an ultra premium quality photography right there.

      I live near a military base. We see F16s every single day for periods of weeks on end. Some fly very low (maybe 50m) over the fields here. Cool for people who visit, but gets very old very quick. Especially if they break the sound barrier ... even though they are not supposed to. KABOOM.

    A squadron of FA18 Hornets flew over the CBD of Melbourne in the lead-up to the F1 Grand Prix a few years ago and the sound that echoed and boomed through the buildings literally shook everything. People who were not expecting it hid and ran to cover. Babies cried and women screamed. It was quite amazing. I remember my heart was racing from an adrenaline surge.

      Fighter jets are scary in general. I love em, but imagine being on the wrong end of these things. NO THANK YOU.
      I get fly overs about once a month where I live thanks to Air Force Reserves taking out their birds. Mainly A10s but I've seen some F16s but I don't know for sure we have them stationed here. We also have bombers and stratotankers.
      When I was a kid, a group of A-10c's flew over our school so low, they titled their wings when we waved. About 10 seconds later, some more flew by so fast it shook us from the inside. It was amazing. I feel lucky I get to see this stuff.
      I have watched the skies here all my life. I also have seen a group of UFO's once. No idea wtf it was, but it was 8 total lights, all green, in 2 square formations, 3 bright green lights and one dim, they moved from southern horizon to northern horizon so fast it made no sense.

    If you have never been to an airshow, i highly recommend it.
    I will always remember my first airshow. Always.
    At one point during the show, the announcer asked everybody to look to the left. The American team was coming. So we all looked to the left. You could see 3 jets closing by. Like really far away. We just kept looking.
    But...
    All of the sudden a jet passed from the RIGHT at high speed breaking the sound barrier above us. Everyone was surprised. The boom followed a second later and everyone went crazy.
    I was young. It's strange seeing a jet pass at very high speed without any sound. There i found out about speed of sound and stuff. Really cool experience i'll remember forever.

Sun roof open, windows open, sunny day, when a Tornado passed overhead about 30-50m (guesstimate), our world stopped , I missed a 90 deg bend, drove straight on and pulled over, probably in shock. I’m not complaining, but confirm that these pilots are very skilled at low flying. Amazing !

Loved how you captured the breathtaking shots of these gorgeous birds manipulating the atmosphere. Simply fascinating! I recently had my own “Mach Loop” experience outside of the small town of Skyline, Al. It’s a small town 12 miles outside of Scottsboro, Al. that sits at almost 1600 feet of elevation. As I was descending the mountain, I got to the place that overlooks a beautiful valley well down below that is dotted with farmhouses and fields. All of a sudden, a C 130 flies right over the road heading over the valley and was soon followed by another. I don’t know if they dropped any farther in altitude as I lost sight of them(I was in a box truck paying attention to the road unless I became airborne without wings), but nonetheless was a beautiful experience! Thank you much for posting this absolutely breathtaking video.
