For real... I buried my father (87) last year (US. Marine Aviator 1st and Army Aviator 2nd. Retired Army LTC.) I knowingly disobeyed my dads last orders to me to keep his funeral simple and short. I requested and He received a full military and a fly over (choppers as it was his main gig). I did not receive conformation of the fly over till that morning and when I did, I threw out all my plans and worked with the Captain in charge to have everything completed in 30 mins. Being former Army (Dad handed my my first orders to proceed to The 101st.. 13Bravo 155) I handled it with aplomb and managed to obey the keep it "Short" part. I sure miss him a lot!

Holy Freaking Cow! That was spectacular!! Thanks for giving us a quick look at our favorite Jammer! I had to pause the video for a second to see you. What you guys do is so incredible. Thank you so much for your service to our country. Many blessings to you and your family! Edit: I'm not sure why, but I always get goosebumps whenever I watch one of your videos.

So cool of the military top brass to allow this absolute solid gold content to be published for public consumption!!

I love this channel. No fancy music or special effects. As an aerospace engineer, I love listening to all the specifics of how the aircrafts operates.

Dude that's awesome, not many can say they were trusted for a fly over for an event! As always bro, I love the spectacular display of skill and flying!!!

That was amazing! What a privilege to feel we are in the jump seat. Incredible how you get the timing right with the delay, and zoop straight over perfectly!! Thank you so much, gave me goosebumps 👍🏼

Great video. Those shelters.over the jets are nice. In the early 80s I spent many hot hours on that ramp.as.a.Plane.Captain and the Avionics Tech on the TA-4J. No covers to.work under. VT-21 was great duty. Looks.like.the hangar has.been well taken.care of. The ready room.was.on the end.of.the building.back.then. looks like you all came.down the ladder mid hangar.

Great video. Every time the Braves or Falcons have a flyover, sometimes staged out of Dobbins ARB, the Nextdoor message boards light up with “why were the military jets flying around?” Most are newer people who weren’t there when NAS Atlanta had Hornets or the ANG had Eagles or the Raptors were being made there. I miss those “sounds of freedom.”

Great video, Pail! Well done to you and your wingmen. Dad said you guys flew smartly, and he was very happy to see the Lexington make a cameo appearance, he did his qualifications aboard her in 1972. He said “I’m happy she’s in a safe place.” Thanks again Pail for making my old man’s day.

Thanks mate, I was a real treat to have you upload a fly by with USS Lexington CV-16 in the background only a few days shy the battle of the Coral Sea anniversary where USS Lexington CV-2 was lost. It was the skill and sacrifice of USN navy pilots that saved us in Australia that day back in 1942. It's not forgotten. Keep up the amazing work.

Pail, Favorite Jam so far. I predicted 'SERIOUS' epicness. I was wrong. I underestimated. Nice to finally see the front of your face, rather than the back of your helmet. Well done to all. Fly Navy.

Out standing video. im 17 and live in Corpus. That day i was watching radar and listening to app/departure (120.9) and noticed the call of rusty 11 flight of 4 come through. i thought it was very interesting so i kept listening the saw yall on radar. went outside and got to see yall fly over. my goal is after highschool to go to college and get my degree and either join the navy or coastguard and become a pilot. thanks for the amazing video!

Nice! Tight formation, ToT. The only time I did something like that was dropping jumpers over an air show in Klamath Falls, Oregon. A U2 did a flyover first and we were momentarily next to it at about 10k feet. Seeing a U2 in flight isn't something you see every day. Dropped our jumpers, ToT. No formation work on this one, but still satisfying.

Awesome video! I have often wondered how these worked. Thank you so much for sharing and thank you for your service.

one of the best from Pail. As a retired maintainer, nice to see the work needed to get the jet in the air. Also kinda sad not to sailors anyhere to be found on the ground, just contractors

Thanks for this. This retired Marine has seen countless fly-overs, and has always wondered the myriad things that take place behind the scenes.

We have the “Flyover Specials” here - the B-2. The Chiefs, Royals and the daily aviation routine make it cool to see them. And they are spectacular. I even know a guy - my son - his bread and butter - BUT - there is nothing like Naval Aviation. Grew up in the Navy, Naval Aviation and will always love it. Thanks Pail.

Great video, as always. Thanks, Pail!

I know the audio was from the field, but I still got goosebumps when I heard the National Anthem watching you flyover. That was hot

Another excellent "FLY NAVY" production! Your calm but assertive voice reminds me of sitting in on the BLUE ANGELS airshow brief when I was an "Air Boss" for civilian air shows. The "BOSS" went through each rehearsed maneuver with that same kind of voice. It was comforting to listen to the cadence of the maneuvers spoken by the "BOSS," knowing that the same tone and cadence would be heard in each crafts radios. The performance they flew was perfect; as always.

That was totally Rad
