Nice Video and Music from the Swiss AF

[huncowboy]

I am not sure if this has been posted yet.

Dial up warning 39MB but worth watching 15 min. I think it is the Swiss AF buzzing the Alps correct me if I was wrong.
here is the direct link, not sure if it works this way:

I found that elsewhere but you beat me posting it here.

Let me be the first to say... this is probably THE most breathtaking aviation video I've ever seen, and I was literally squeaming with glee while watching it. THIS is the reason I wanted to become a pilot.

wow thats sick
us airforce should play that when they are trying to recruit people
hehe

 

[JohnR]

that was the best video ive ever seen!!!!!

 

[Thesaurus682]

Wow, truly amazing. I've thought about joining the military for the purpose of becoming a heavy/transport pilot, but maybe it's time to rethink those plans ...

Hehe if you made a video like that in the US Airforce, buzzing boats, etc. you wouldn't put it on the internet thats for sure!

 

[JohnR]

LOL thesaurus682 i was thinking same thing i wanted to fly something like the C-5 for the AF and now i kinda wanna fly a fighter cuase of this video

Awesome!!!

Fantastic......one of the best I've seen! Being a former Transport Driver I always wanted to do something like this with the C-17, speaking of low level fight in the mountains, of course the vertical climbs up a shear face and rolls over the tops of these giants would be cool for sure, I would save those moves for the fighter jocks and jills for sure...


Very nice indeed and must have for the video library! I think this is the stuff that makes all of our engines run!

Definitely a cool video, but I don't know how much of this would be allowed in the US military. The regulations have gotten a lot stricter over the past few years, after the brass got tired of too many Class A mishaps.

Consider the EA-6B crew that was bombing down a mountain valley in Italy and didn't see the chairlift cable, or the F-16 driver in Texas that clipped the roof of his father's barn and bought his own farm right there in front of his dad. Sure hot-dogging is fun, but unplanned, spur-of-the-moment stuff like this is asking for trouble.

I know, I know....killjoy....sounds like my mother....live a little....etc...etc....

Mr. EagleRJ,

C'mon give us a break! These guys are pros.,they do this for a living (kinda like the Blue Angels). A lot of great aerobatic flying is done on a daily basis in the Military, unfortunately one is usually not allowed to video tape it in the US.

Great video, cool stuff!!

no cookie

I can't seem to download it, I right-clicked and saved to desktop but it saves as a file called "anonymous", I think it's an empty file cause it downloaded immediately and does nothing when played. Same thing when I tried to download it from site.

Help! You've peaked my curiosity...

 

[crash-proof]

Forget it, got it to working simply by removing the "anonymous.to" part of the link, here's the link I used in case others have the same problem.

The video? Worth the download, unbelievable!

 

[Gatorman]

Agreed, that is an awesome video, great flying!

I do have to point out that these guys (though great flyers) are not pros such as the Blue Angles but rather they are Swiss Military exercising a little bit of freedom.
If the truth be known, I am sure that some of our own military can share some great stories also.....and yes, still in our own country. I know the pilot that flew is PhantomII under the Savannah bridge. But that did not really happen. *wink*wink**nudge*nudge* say no more.

I wasn't able to download the video, did the Swiss use both of their planes in the production?

For sure...formation stuff was pretty sloppy at some points in the video. The guy over the water at the end was S.H though.
