Blue Angels Join With Thunderbirds Over NYC and Northeast US
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
The two American military jet teams, the USAF Thunderbirds and U.S. Navy Blue Angels, flew together over New York, Philadelphia, and parts of New Jersey on 28 April 2020. The joint effort was a flyover salute to COVID-19 healthcare workers. The jet teams fly regularly to maintain the razor-sharp skills they need; what better way to use their flying time than by bringing a bit of their stylish art to the public at a time when the public can't go to an air show? Have you subscribed to the Airailimages Channel on KZread? We appreciate it. Here's a link to another great jet team video from the Airailimages Channel: • Blue Angels Spectacula...

How awesome is this. I can't remember a time where we saw both the blue angels and thunderbirds in the sky at the same time. So proud!
These guys are my heroes. Truly Americas finest. To see both teams together is fantastic. Thanx guys and girls.
As a former F-4 Phantom radar maintainer (yes I'm old) in the Marine Corps and also a former paramedic this video sent chills throughout my body!

Same here, F-4 and many other fighters in the USAF. Here I thought my goose bumps only worked during the National Anthem but this woke them up! I can’t believe I enlisted over 40 years ago, even helped out fixing the Birds when they transitioned to the F-16 and were getting their troops trained up on the new aircraft. Seems like yesterday. And I guess I’m getting old too!

Wow.What heros . Thank you go's out from the deepest part of my heart to all of the U S Navy Blue Angels and the United States Air Force Thunderbirds along with the ground support personnel for each team. You truly represent what Americans are all about. When one hurts then many do . Even though we are having it bad in my state i have to feel sorry for all of you in New York.God Bless you all and especially your care givers , the Drs,nurses,specialist and etc . THANK YOU ALL .
Makes me proud to say I am an American. 🇺🇸 Just the tail nacelle on that KC-10 is the size of the F-16. Impressive.
I saw this same salute to medical professionals today in the skies over Atlanta. It was a wonderful thank you to those on the first line of defense against this virus and a powerful reminder that we are ALL Americans. What a beautiful moment from our USAF Thunderbirds and USN Blue Angels. Thank you!!
If there would be an Academy Award for Aviation videos.... this WON!,,, God Bless ALL involved

@@airailimages , ahh the C-141B, aka "The Tube Of Pain". i was in from 1979-1999 and refueled them when they were still white. i was in the KC-10's when they were white, then green, and finally gray. oh the days. thanks for the videos.
This had to be way more intense than just an airshow for 15 minutes. All those minute corrections for such a long period of time is so amazing to keep up. What with all the thermals and weird air currents. Even at high speed, you can see the intense concentration required to maintain this formation for so long. WOW, Tremendous job guys. Thank you for this. Bless you all and yours.
Stunning to see both in the same place at the sametime !
So proud of them best of best Proud to be American God bless America 🇺🇸 🇺🇸
Whoa, at 4:26 Blue Angel #6 takes a safety. Way to hang in there, this is incredibly difficult to do this for an extended period of time as the teams are doing, factor in cross country time to get to these cities coupled with multiple AAR and they deserve all the accolades that they are receiving.

Beautiful tribute to both the men and women who serve in the military, and those who serve on the front lines against Covid-19. Let's not forget the families of both who sacrifice so much so that others may live. Had the opportunity to see the Thunderbirds perform at JBLM 4 years ago, from a unique vantage point. Our farm is a couple of miles from the end of the runway. Nothing like some of their high-speed low passes and formations flying right over the pastures as they circled around. Was able to get some great video (albeit short clips) from the best seat in the house.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.......this is an amazing video.

That's awesome that they it that for people both teams fly almost side by side Air Force F-16 and Navy F/A 18 nice to see them together in the sky it doesn't happen that much to different teams but the same honor to people. They are honoring them by flying over.
I would like to see the evolution of both American military jet teams in my country Romania. The gesture of greetings the doctors who are fighting Covid-19 is superb,magnificent! God bless America and Romania!

Pretty cool video! God Bless America and our troops and our Healthcare Workers!
I noticed 2 distinct differences between the Air Force Thunderbirds and the Navy Blue Angels. Different air refueling methods. Thunderbirds use a nozzle that attaches directly to the top of the airplane and the Blue Angels use a boom that comes out of the aircraft. 2. The Thunderbird pilots use oxygen masks but the Blue Angel pilots do not. I have had the opportunity to see both teams preform, both are equally amazing. Thank you for posting this once in a lifetime experience. This aerial footage was truly amazing and a pleasure to watch.

I noticed at the 8:06 mark there are 2 KC-10 refueling ships but after reading the comments below it is because both the F-16's and F-18's use different methods of transferring fuel to each type of aircraft. Boom and basket type nozzles.

Some are 360-degree cameras that merge files from multiple lenses. Then, back in the video editing bay on the ground, the editor later has the option of digitally swiveling to whatever perspective looks best.
They should have engaged in a dog fight!!!! A real one with real weapons!!!!!
Was the lone F-16 there to take video/pics?
HI CHEWY.
I have a question if anyone could help. How come when the Blue Angels are flying over they do a formation flight but there is one jet a couple hundred feet behind them like almost as if they are leaving him behind. Can anyone explain??
Their skill levels are equal, but I have to wonder if their styles are different.
And...Atlanta...
The funny thing is the pilots got to enjoy NONE of the scenery. LOL And yes, 4:28 was a little too close......notice he broke off tight formation for a sec.
Damn... One small slip up and you're a goner.
4:28 was not expecting that lol yikes
Why was their one aircraft not in formation with the others? Was this a military air craft for support purposes?

I hate to be the elephant in the room. I love the teams. I truly do. But the money for this stunt could have been better used in the direct support of those who need it most. The first responders, doctors, nurses, and patients who are suffering and/or dying.

They would’ve spent this otherwise if airshows n shit weren’t canceled like crazy in the past month or two. And they don’t just stop training anyway...They’d still be burnin cash, so why not spend it on a safer kinda show? I got to see them from my house!

I’m pretty sure the money spent on these teams is budgeted in advance and the military buys fuel in bulk. Whatever money could be “saved” would be insignificant to the trillions of dollars the government is already budgeted for aid.

This is what they are doing instead of the shows that both teams had to cancel due to the lockdowns. This is probably a fraction of what the shows cost. A great tribute to the medical workers. I for one would rather have my government spend for this rather than a lot of the crap money is wasted on.
How much money was wasted on this stunt that could have gone to people in need?
