    AS an FYI, despite being retired from combat ops, a decent amount of the F-117 fleet is still being flown by the Air Force, and will be flown until at least 2034, maybe longer. They mostly fly them for research, testing, training, along with being used as red air aggressors and as a stand-in for stealth missiles during training ops.

      Fwiw, bases that run F22s, like Langley in VA, run F22 training all day, every day over populated areas like Newport News, Hampton, and Virginia Beach. I've seen more F22s, often flying combat training in pairs against other jets, than almost any other military aircraft I've seen. They became so common, I tuned them out regularly, but if I was outside, I would always stop and watch them fly.
      But F117s? I had no idea they still even flew them.

      809 is still flying :) She was one of the jets that put in an appearance last year at Duluth in Minnesota. Main identifier is blue chequered banding on the fin top (whereas the others are either red cheques or a light grey F-117 silhouette similar to the one worn by the 49th FW flagship). 809 has “Hulk” on the L/H canopy rail. The other Duluth jets were (if I recall right) 811 “Double Down” and (spare) 828 “Air Rage”.

    @1:39 Oh my God!! Not one but TWO Nighthawks!!! They still exist, and here I thought the Air Force retired them all!!
    @2:45 A "VANDY-1" VX-9 Black Hornet........... wow, what a treat!!!
    I remember back in the 1980s when I saw the F-4J, the F-4S, and the F-14 Tomcats dressed up in the "Black Bunny" VANDY paint scheme.
    Those were some good times!!!

    F117 Nighthawk is 1970s technology, and still the sexiest beast flying.

    • @benn454
      @benn454 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      So is the F-15, F-16, and F-18. The BUFF is 1950s tech.

    How do you know when to go out there? I'd love to visit some of the spots along the route.

      Hike to The Needles east of Ponderosa. You can watch the airplanes fly right overhead. You can see the Needles @2:31 directly above the second 117, and the first in the distance turning towards them. Another easily accessible place to watch aircraft is on top of Dome Rock, a few miles south of Ponderosa. Mid-week best. Was there in June and it was pretty busy. Bring binnoculars.

    May I ask where this wonderful place is located? IS this a weekly or monthly fight pattern or do you have to know someone in the know? Being retired USAF and living near DM, I get to watch A-10's all day long. Still one of the coolest jets every made..

    Funny how you can see the Nighthawk only when it's right above you... I think those things would fly a great deal of years in frontline if one was not shoot down in Serbia - opening the door to the bad guys to peeking up its secrets. Amazing machine, indeed.

      Good luck recreating the materials science and know how that's the secret you can hold something in you're hands but can't make it !!!

    • @guyray1504
      @guyray1504 ปีที่แล้ว

      Because of the F-117A we now have the F-22 and F-35s. It was the first to open that door.

    Me and my brother were sitting in a pool right next to Miramar in 1999 when two came right over head. They were flying about 150 200 Ft off the ground and basically in a glide. Couldn't hear them until we saw their shadows. They were three to four jet lengths apart from each other, very close. Ace pilots no doubt. Sneaky and deadly. My Aunt lived in the trailer park butted up to Miramar. Could watch the Blue Angels practice almost every time you went there.
