    The radio comms make this video, thank you so much. There's a billion of these on TH-cam, Rain, but only a handful have comms.

    I could watch this all day long! Cheers me up to watch a master perform their craft to perfection. You personify the phrase "You strap into the jet and it becomes a piece of you, like another appendage." 🙏

    Great view of the right wing. I love watching the leading edge slat working to keep the lift going. It's damn impressive to see that wing bend.

    Really nice when the camera is like “fixed” like doing the same movements of the aircraft.

    Great video but I prefer the ones when someone's in the back on the edge death all while John is gassing on about peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Thanks from the UK

    Wow. Last fast pass, traversed the runway in about 8 seconds, Google Maps says the runway length is 1.53 miles, that makes for about 688 mph, or 600 kts to you aeronautical types...roughly.

    OMG John ,. Thank you for the great video. I enjoy watching you fly. It's great to see how much you love what you do. 🙄💡 Who is that on the radio ? After you say something. It sounds like someone else says something ? Man, you look so cool. Would love to see you after you land with no helmet on.👍🙊😀😀🙄🙄✌️PLEASE. Thank you. Love from Wilmington, California- Debra

    Love watching your adventures sir. Could you please explain what the "hack" is?

    • @johnn1474
      @johnn1474 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      The hack is just them synchronising watches or system time. If you watch when he declares hack he presses a button on the MFD to sync it with the time in Ops centre.

    Someone has to explain the hack and what it's for. I'm guessing time keeping but why is it called that?

  • @StuartAxe
    @StuartAxe 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    During the comm's, what does Q or 'cue' mean? Obviously some kind of acknowledgement but why Q? Just CUErious! Thanks.

    • @dannyhook9845
      @dannyhook9845 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      He’s saying “two”. Acknowledging what his flight lead said. If there were more than two in the formation it would follow sequentially down the line so Flt lead would know everyone’s on the same page.

  • @hershall_3162
    @hershall_3162 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Off topic but quick question....Is it pronounced O or U Claire? I get semi’s out of there from the menards distribution center every other day and always wondered which is it

    It's time to have a new nickname, John "Altitude" Waters. Impressive flying as always! So what's the big deal with the big strip in the grass next the runway? Did it serve as a visual reference for the airshow?
