- Witness the last and final airshow demo of the US Marine Corps AV-8B Harrier II. This is footage of the Harriers demo on both Saturday & Sunday at the 2024 MCAS Cherry Point Airshow in Havelock, NC. Due to this iconic aircraft's imminent retirement in 2026, it's a bittersweet moment to see the last public airshow demo of the iconic VTOL Harrier jet. The sound of the Harrier taxi is such an iconic sound and to see this jet hover and fly backwards is awe-inspiring!
This jet really was a childhood core memory for me. My dad would take us to the St. Louis Air Shows and we were always super excited to see the AV-8B Harrier demo right before the Blue Angels Demo. I'm very fortunate to have been able to see this AV-8B Harrier II Jump Jet at the last-ever airshow demo with my own eyes! It's an honor to help create content to help preserve this memory for so many other air showgoers!

I remember seeing the Harrier in a James Bond movie. From that day to this day, my fascination with the plane remains the same.
Lovely video. I thoroughly enjoyed the very steady filming.
Thank you I've really been working on my steady hard while filming videos! Keeping the long form viewer in mind when I'm at a show! I'm honored to have been able to catch its last airshow demo!
That was some fancy flying. Brilliant.
Solid pilot for sure!
Great video! I was there also. It was a honor to see that final flight.
What an airshow! The harrier was a class act!
The pilot seems to be a showman waving to everybody around and enjoying himself.Full throttle STOL takeoff.
He was a very great performer and he was very happy to fly!

What a beautiful iron bird!
It really is a stunning aircraft!
Ground breaking machine!
ahead of its time!
Dam that plane can move shame its retiring thou thanks for posting
It is! Such a great aircraft its very nibble!
The Harriet II has a digital flight control system, instead of a hydro mechanicable system, as the narrator said.
Interesting! Thanks for sharing!
Pretty cool stuff. I assume this was from Saturday and Sunday?
Thank you! Yes this is footage of both days! The 2nd days taxi out was cut short due to the Raptor shooting flares over head!
@@PrestonMonoc You got way better taxi footage than I got both days. Also way better footage than I got the first day. Ended up being like 10 people back the first day and some girl was on her dads shoulders and blocked part of the hover....looking back at the footage I don't think she really cared about seeing the harrier, she was more interested in looking at the ground. Sigh.
Man that really stinks! I was very blessed to have a media pass and got in early to get a good spot.
@@PrestonMonoc For sure, at least someone got good footage of the performance =)
Black Aces!
Sure is!
Ufo crossing behind harrier at 5.19 , just a flash because video was cut.
It was an airliner in the background great catch!

MCAS CP was my last posting. Fantastc base and folks.
Thats so cool! Thanks for sharing that the base was really nice!
เป็นเครื่องบินที่หายากมาก จะมีเยอะหน่อยคงอยู่ที่กองทัพเรืออังกฤษ
Anyone saying they are retired is a fool. Will be in use long time just like the U2.
It has been slated for a 2026 retirement! We shall see if its extended!
10 years ago we had 8 squadrons, now we are down to 2. Next year we we’ll have 1 unit left. All but less than 40 harriers (estimate) have been scrapped. They can’t be used for a long time if there aren’t many left

It was!
Hay FFS, just had an idea. Why not send the retiring Harriers to Ukraine! Probably better than F16s as they can operate from no/poorly prepared areas.
Would be a real PITA for the Russians.
🤔🤔🤔
Because the F-16 is a multi- role aircraft and the Harrier is a ground attack platform,!
@@luigigunner The Harrier was a pretty effective dogfighter in the Falklands campaign! - shot down something like 20 odd Argentinian aircraft for 0 Harrier losses -
@@britblue That was the Sea Harrier GR3, remember that the USMC used theirs as a ground support platform! You can’t compare the A-4 & the French Super Etendard (2 subsonic aircrafts used by Argentina ) to the Russian fighters used a against Ukraine!
Yak141 vstol is better than this old flying craft
Valid argument!
More noise. Id. Ever. Heard
Poorly edited video this is 👎
Thats not very nice of you to say! Since you’re the leading expert in good edited videos what would you improve??
@@PrestonMonoc The reason why I criticise your video editing is because you cut parts off
@@fastlaneproductions92 indeed I cut off parts because 1 there was copyrighted music and I’d like to monetize my channel while I am not able to at this moment because I don’t meet the metrics eventually I would like to not get my profile pinged, additionally those parts were either out of focus or shaky. Thanks for the CC I’ll take this to heart and do better thank you!
