Rejoins might just be my absolutely favorite part of cockpit footage.

My daughter just got accepted to the 2025 maintenance and support team for Blue Angles

[@negativejeff]

Absolutely incredible

[@dirtyketchup]

3:08 I've always wanted to know if they need to put reverse aileron in when stopping the maneuver, or if the jet was stable enough to just put the stick back to neutral. Now I know. = ]

Hey from Kingsport TN ;)

[@michael184272]

Very nice ..can you locate any footage with F4s

[@calvingifford9442]

Since Glenview NAS is no longer around, I wonder where they fly out from?

[@PartsandStuff]

[@Erikr-ex9dj]

Great stuff. Background of Black Sabbath would be sweet !

[@flake8382]

It really wouldn't.

[@bmezay2003]

Do they have footages from 2021-22 when they were in Chicago?

[@dirtyketchup]

7:20 anyone know what that flick on the switch is for? That's not smoke off, is it?

[@dirtyketchup]

Nope, definitely not anything to do with smoke. Maybe something to do with sustained inverted flight? Like some sort of hydraulic pump for negative G?

[@XlarallUntang]

@@dirtyketchup Inverted fuel pump

[@dirtyketchup]

@@XlarallUntang ah, well hey, I was kinda close! 😄

[@XlarallUntang]

@@dirtyketchup Pretty close! Next to the switch is a smoke pressure arm button This doesnt turn on the smoke but rather a forward and aft switch on the throttle that originally would dispense chaff/flare does!

[@Southboundpachyderm]

Do you guys ever use rudder pedals? It looks like you're feet flat the entire time!
