This and the F-22 are my two most favorite fighter jets to this day, I aspire to be a fighter pilot when I join the Air Force.
The precision of where you can put the plane at any given moment is just staggering!
So much respect for these pilots. 🙏❤
This one of the better videos that I’ve seen of the F16 for a while. Very nice.
Magnificent. Serious skills, serious jet, seriously great team. Man-o-man. Beautiful.
Very very cool. Loved watching the whole thing from startup to shut down. Only slight disappointment was that the landing was cut out. Very cool seeing the ground crew communicate with the pilot to do all the SEC and EPU checks etc.
The sound is incredible, honey to my ears. Masterclass from pilot and beautiful jet.

By far my favorite fighter jet. It literally looks like a falcon with its nose in my opinion. Thanks Dad for bringing me to Hanscom AFB way back then. Been hooked ever since. USAF THUNDERIRDS
Bravo. What a workout. I've seen the Blue Angels and the Thunder Birds at airshows and it never gets old.
That's really an amazing demo! Very skillful pilot and thrilling maneuvers, got goosebumps!

Nice video, Mr. Hughes. Thanks for putting the work into it.
This is the second time watching jets flying online . I honestly love them . But when I was just 9 my parents took us 4 children to watch the " Snow Birds " do an ariel acrobatics show at our city Airport two of them colided killing 2 pilots and 2 Co pilots while we all watched in absolute horror!! I'm 50 something now , have never been able to fly and am just now able to start even looking at them again!! Pretty amazing stuff they have come up with in 40 + years!!

Great plane and flown by a skilled pilot !😁 NICE JOB CRAIG !
I'm exhausted just watching him. Seems like an intense workout.
I was there. Been going to this since I was a kid, then it became a tradition for my son and I who is now nineteen. If you have any opportunity, go to this show, it is the best! Sometimes they even "sneak" a pass in from an unexpected "visitor". A few years ago it was an F4 Phantom. I hadn't seen one of those in years. Brought tears to my eyes as he disappeared over the foothills. It was like watching my childhood fly away. If you see a 1941 Dodge Power Wagon in the parking lot, stop and say "hi", that will be my son and I in his truck.

I was the eight or nine year old when I got my first model airplane of an F-16 and I hung it from fishing line with about 13 or to 15 other aircraft that I had built in my room! Hands down the most beautiful and lethal aircraft that has ever been designed! I am a fan of the P-47 although huge bulky but same outcome!

Fighter pilots are among the most honorable, disciplined and dedicated group of individuals on the planet, i live a few block off runway 03R behind Nellis AFB in Las Vegas NV and i have met an awful lot of pilots over the 23 years of living here and they're a group of people that are just so awesome to be around.

Best flight footage ever ! NOTHING beats a fighter jet's intense wow factor.
I lived on a naval base in New Orleans when i was kid and im lucky to say me and my friends would literally ride our scooters to the back of the base and watch these insane things take off
the astounding thing is the ease of the movements compared to the planes of yesteryear. how lucky are these pilots !..
WOW............the physical condition of the pilot must be enormous. The coordination capacity of the pilot as well.

I hope you know that pretty much any modern jet fighter is capable of doing a cobra. The Russians turn off their fly by wire flight computer to get a very extreme angle of attack, the same can be done for pretty much any other fighter.
The turning is amazing
بالتأكيد واحدة من أجمل الطائرات على الإطلاق. لا يزال يبدو جديدًا وجديدًا كما كان عليه عندما تم بناؤه لأول مرة.

Ultimate morning wake up workout a human can have. Beats the crap out of any fitness gym or swimming pool facility. You know the pilot's heart rate was up there when you saw his chest heaving from the efforts of his body managing extreme 'G' forces. Love the vapor trails forming on the wings from extreme 'G' forces generated from maximum torque being produced. This video should be compulsory morning wake up viewing while enjoying breakfast over a cup of English breakfast tea with 3 tea bags in the cup with maple syrup. No need for nicotine...
a lot of people dont understand that when the pilot does the High G maneuvers, he or she has to exercise what is called The Anti-G Straining Maneuver (AGSM) Fighter Pilots have to wear a special suit called a G-Suit that compresses their body to keep them from passing out during the INHUMAN AMOUNTS OF G FORCE during a high speed maneuver. The pilot cannot just rely on the suit to do all the work, they have to compress their bodys with the special breathing technique I just spoke about (The AGSM). If they dont, they can and will passout during a flight and kill themselves and a lot of people on the ground (possibly). Pilots are so highly trained that its almost super human. And most people wont ever know. they just think that they are good flyers. :P nope, much more than that.

It's also called the Valsalva Maneuver which is used in weight training, swimming, baseball, football, shot put... and any type of activity where you need to exert maximum strength for a short period of time. You take a deep breath, close off the epiglottis, contract the abdominals and intercostal muscles, lift the weight and exhale at the top/end of the lift. It does temporarily increase blood pressure during and heart rate after doing it to compensate for the loss of blood flow which occurs due to the increase thoracic pressure. It does increase the pressure in the thoracic cavity. "The Valsalva maneuver is commonly believed to be the optimal breathing pattern for producing maximal force and is frequently used in powerlifting to stabilize the trunk during exercises such as the squat, deadlift, and bench press, and in both lifts of Olympic weightlifting.[9]This does increase the risk of hernias, especially direct inguinal hernias." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valsalva_maneuver

It's funny that the F-16 was not capped ( You could pull yourself a blackout with 9+ g's ) like todays planes where it's hard to pull more than 6g's cause the risk of blacking out. They don't make pilots like they used to ;)
