      All you'd hear in the cockpit is a loud whining noise... annoying and bad for your hearing.

      An F-15 sounds pretty much like constant whining sound from cockpit, it almost sounds like constant radio interference, unless I got that mixed up with another jet.

    2:14 was going to ask what that flash was. Thought it might just be sun glint, so took it frame by frame and could see the sun hit the nose first and then your shadow appeared for a split second at the same time in a gap in the mountains. Awesome.

    Last Monday, I took the day off to go fishing with my buddy. We weren't catching shit besides some sun, but my friend kept reminding me, "But it sure as hell beats a day at work." Then we were blessed by the sounds of freedom as 3 pairs of F-15's from Westover ARB passed low overhead. While watching them, I had a thought and said to my friend, "I bet those guys would much rather be at work than down here fishing with us assholes." LOL!
    I mean, what could you possibly want to skip work for? There's no hobby that beats blasting through the sky at the controls of a supersonic weapon.

    • @sequoyah59
      @sequoyah59 16 днів тому

      It is an incredibly demanding job and the flying is one of the only good things about it. Even then some days are just about all you can do. To keep an edge that sharp you are almost always on the stone. Your time is seldom your own or to share with family but it is a rush you just can't get anywhere else.

  • @SpamSucker

    Phenomenal scenery and great skill flying in that canyon. Military pilots make it look effortless and I’m envious of it. I had no idea Afghanistan had these type of canyons and terrain. Thank you for sharing it with us. What area (N, S, E, W) is this in? Would love to cruise it in DCS when the map is released.

    When I was stationed in Yuma AZ as an F-4B pilot I did the same thing in the Grand Canyon. It is tighter than these mountains and I was having a great time until I saw a cable drooped across the canyon. I went to afterburner and went straight up. I never did that again!

    @MrCaiobrz 26 днів тому

    The Canyon didn't suddenly end, he didn't follow right because it was a sharp turn, so he entered a tributary. Whenever you are in a Canyon, anywhere in the world, if you leave the main river the terrain WILL reach the base level very quick. He was totally aware of that and started a slow climb, didn't even need to pitch up, no sudden or surprise.
