I'm retired USAF and C-130 crew member (I flew B's and E's) -- thank you for posting these military (especially USAF) aircraft. I've been retired 30+ years but the thrill is still there.

I was based at Ramstein AB in 1987-89 with the 512 and 526th AGS we had F-16 C/D we only had one runway great video brings back great memories of the 1980s and my stay there
This brings back so many awesome memories of flying.I can't do it anymore,not with my right leg amputated.All I have are my memories,thanks for putting up such a fantastic video,too bad it's not on blu ray.
Up to your awesome production standards! Editing, camera placement, videography. An intimate look at the aircraft, peering into the flight deck with crew, generator propellers on the RAF Airbus, spinning tires and treads on nose gear, and antenna arrays. Thank you!
Those 'generator propellers' on the Voyager are in fact part of the Drogue wing refuelling system from Cobham. The A330 Voyager uses the A340 wing and the refuelling pods are mounted on what were the outboard engine locations of the A340. The aerial refuelling pods feature an integral fuel boost pump which provides a fuel transfer capability up to 450USGPM (1703 Litres per minute) at 45 to 55 PSI (310 to 379 kPa). Pods operate with aircraft power or are self-powered by a Ram Air Turbine.
Ramstein….dove negli anni ‘80 ci fu quel grave incidente delle Frecce Tricolori italiane….bellissimo video, potrei guardarlo tutto il giorno, bravissimo 👏
I love knowing that most civil aviation is closely in conjunction with the military. Blew one of my friends minds by showing him how basically all airports serve military aircraft even if not stationed there. I myself have flown in a C-17, C-130 and various helicopters during my time in the US Army. Really wish I could have been stationed in Germany, but I got to go a bunch of other places in Europe so I guess it all worked out. Love this channel!
I miss dearly Ramstein AFB. I was an Air Force brat 1984-1987....graduate of Ramstein American High School, Ramstein WEST Germany 1987, good times! Ein Bier Bitte
I deployed to Bagram Airfield, Afghanistan as an AGE mechanic in the Air Force. I supported that exact EC-130 when I was there. Tail number 1583 out of Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, DM on the tail. Gave me chills seeing it again, many good memories.
First of all , I don’t think all of us appreciate camera following and these angles . Really great job on your part , and really finely documented. Thanks for your effort 😊
@@FRAproductions Sehr gerne! Deine Aufnahmen sind wirklich vom Allerfeinsten. Hut ab! Ich wohne in der Nähe von Spangdahlem Air Base. Dort gibt es auch viel zu sehen, aber natürlich kein Vergleich zu Ramstein. LG Achim
Wenn man bei 25.13 die C-130 vor der C-5 sieht frage ich mich wieso die Herkules der Blue Angels Fat Albert genannt wird. 😃 Tolles Video, wie immer alle Daumen hoch. Grüße an alle.
I was a KC-10 Instructor Pilot with the 6th and 70th ARS at March and Travis from 1994-2011… The -10 that’s pictured here…-0078….I’ve flown that very airplane countless times… and retired in 2011 with almost 7000 hrs in the KC-10….Now I’m flying 787’s out of O’Hare…. But I kinda miss my old girl….the -10 will always be a great airplane….
Wow, what a great career so far! Really nice! Flying bKC-10 and later on 787 must be amazing! You can be so proud of you! Huge thanks for your service, your comment and support! We really appreciate that! All the best and accomplishment for the future!

I once walked from Kaiserslauten (Ramstein AFB) to Baumholder back in 1981 after realizing my mistake of getting of the train. 35 K. I got back just in time for breakfast chow. The Army sure did train us hard. lol
WOW!! Fabulous video work!! US Air Force to Lockheed - "We need to order tires so how many wheels do you think we will have on the C5?" Lockheed - "YES!!"
I used to guard that particular aircraft (EC-130H #583) during my time at Sembach AB FRG (1988-91) 66 ECW. We deployed to Incirlik AB during Desert Storm. Awesome Aircraft and Crews.
Ich hatte mir vorhin die E8 gegoogelt, da die Triebwerke ja auffällig überholt sind.. Kein Wunder bei der Basis :-) Bei 27:14 hat man einen wunderbaren Vergleich Tolles Video, was für eine Bildqualität, angenehm herangezoomt. Top!

Spent time in and out of Ramstein 30 years ago. Brings back memories since many of these aircraft were still in use then! Great stuff.

I was based at the "Stein" 76-78. We regenerated the 512th Dragons with F-4Es. Yeah, great memories!
That EC-130H was a rare catch and you got to love that engine roar from the KC-10 at 10:50 onwards 👍
The sound from the KC-10 really is spectacular!
Love the mighty sound of the KC10 aswell, its a gorgeous one too specially from back 3/4 angle
C-5A: oh really
It amazes me still how a C-5 or a C-17 gets off the ground! They are flying cities!
Awesome video quality!! Love this.
Fantastic heavy military action mate, the C5M is just amazing!!
Thanks mate for your support ☺️☺️

I'm a US Air Force veteran. Excellent photography. Some of the best spotting work I've ever seen.
The close up shots of the aircraft nose are a brilliant perspective! Great video
That is some awesome camera work, and amazing details and picture stability, really a pleasure to watch.

Awesome plane spotting. I lived in Baumholder for 4 years and miss Germany very much. Love seeing that part of Germany again.

WOW!! Fabulous video work!! US Air Force to Lockheed - "We need to order tires so how many wheels do you think we will have on the C5?" Lockheed - "YES!!"
That's one busy military airport!
The largest airbase outside from the USA ….
Loads of Smokey jets here
1:25 very nice touch down
7:40 also is this a rare one with old engines?
Thank You very much my friend!
The E-8 still has older engines but these are a bit modified and upgraded!
@@FRAproductions ah ok 👍
These videos are relaxing as hell!
@Robert Murphy
I guess hell was relaxing to you. 🤔
What an incredible video! Liked!

I see this DM C130 always in Tucson AZ nice catch
Ich hatte mir vorhin die E8 gegoogelt, da die Triebwerke ja auffällig überholt sind.. Kein Wunder bei der Basis :-)
Bei 27:14 hat man einen wunderbaren Vergleich
Tolles Video, was für eine Bildqualität, angenehm herangezoomt. Top!
Good job, love your stuff, thanks.
Good to see a Davis-Monthan based ec130 at Ramstein
Nice that this video starts off with one of my old planes from Davis Monthan the EC 130. I deployed to Kuwait with those planes.
I love the c17 and A330 mrtt
This is an excellent compilation dear sir. Full marks from me 👌👍
The AIRBUS Voyager is the hot handsome boy there....
great stuff luv these big air force jets--so cool!
Excellente qualité d'image et de cadrage ! Bravo !
Excellent mate,those head on close ups...🤙
The planes are great of course but hat tip to the top notch videography. Just perfect.
Some interesting antennae on that electronic warfare Herk at the beginning.
I must compliment you on the cinema-quality camera work. Very professional and thus very entertaining. Thank you.
Thanks Peter for your good feedback 👍🤠
Fantastic photography!
