"Hi Mom" LOL! Also great was the one with the UNC (University of NC) banner, even though I'm a fan of one of their rivals. Go NCSU!!!

I have grown to love the F35 and the more modern fighter jets but there is just something REALLY special about the venerable F15 passing through the loop that just gives me chills. Can you even imagine the thrill if somehow a still air worthy F14 (LOL, other than flown by "Maverick") passed through the loop?

and to think a prop airplane with a good pilot shot down jet fighters all the time... p51d taking out me262's lol but the ral problem is,,, nowaday pilots can hit shit with guns...theyre totally dependent on locking on a letting a missile do it for them... well try locking onto say, a dehaviland mosquito LOL they got a cross signature of a bloody..... well mosquito, so no locking for you kinda thing :-(

Nice to see the 15s hit the loop 👌 The photos 🤙

Dafydd, EXCELLENT as always! The incredible videography and stills pulled out are nothing short of amazing👍. I feel like I use the same descriptors time after time, but I don’t know how else to say, “Incredibly Amazing!” Thank you for sharing these clips for those of us unable to make it to the MACH LOOP or wherever you may be🙏. You have an incredible talent with the photography skills. Thanks again from the Bluegrass region of central KENTUCKY USA! 🇺🇸 🇺🇸🇺🇸 Love the F-15. Can’t beat that beauty IMO!

Who invented this? This is an absolute marvel and testament to the brilliant engineering of modern aviation. Letting these beautiful birds strut down the catwalk. I could watch these all day...wait, what time is it? Aw hell...

Had just put up a high gain discone antenna and was listening on the MIL ATC frequencies at home and heard the chatter. Seemed like it was going to be a busy day 😁
