F 15 is still one of the most beautiful aircraft mankind has ever invented. I like the shape from below in combination with the power and the sound. Nice footage. Thx for the upload.
Tobias Flohr, If you’ll look closely at cross sectional views of an McDonell Douglas/Boeing F15 and the Migoyan/Gurevich (MiG) 29 you’ll notice a strong resemblance between the two. The only major difference is in the cockpit and canopy area. As a former active duty Marine Corps Officer and F4 Phantom fighter pilot during the 60’s in Vietnam these similarities jump out at me!,
@@arttafil6792 It's always so cool to meet people like you from all over the world on TH-cam. As a son of a former GDR MiG 29 technician, i have to admit, that from my point of view there simply can not be a better looking aircraft on this planet than the MiG 29. Guess that design was state of the art back in the days. But I like the F4 Phantom too. They served side by side for Germany at JG 73. My dad used to say, that 'the F4 is so ugly, that she appears pretty again'. Not a very good translation but i hope, you're getting the message. Greetings from Germany. 👋
The Pratt & Whitney F100 sound so freaking incredible! Your within eye sight when they take off...I freaking LOVE that ROAR right into a SCREAM! It never get's old.
*THE Mach Loop I have been waiting for!!* Chills and tears!! No sound except the flying machines and the Most Excellent photography. Very Well Done, and Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!👍
Robert Cocciardi .... Thank you brother!! 4th TFW, 75-79....425th TFTS, 79-81....354th Fighter Wing, 81-84.....Comm Squadron Inoges, Spain and spent my last eight years at the 445th Airlift Wing, WPAFB, Ohio....we would do it all again for no pay, just a food allowance, Roger?
Ahhh the sound of those Pratt and Whitney PW229's echoing through the Mach Loop is so soothing lol. The Raptor and Lightning are amazing machines, but the F-15E is still IMO such a beautiful aircraft and still leaves me speechless. Awesome video!
Feels like my times in Goldsboro NC watching the F-15Es from Seymour Johnson AFB Also it’s like watching an European rally car race but with aircraft.. pure awesomeness
Amazing video! Thank you for the smooth camera work, and not adding a cheezy soundtrack like so many do. Those sounds were chilling. How amazing it must have sounded in those valleys.
Thank goodness for the fact that both of these countries continue to train together, reinforcing our historic alliance. Together, we are better and stronger.
OMG!! Put this on my bucket list of paces to go!!! And the guy waving out of the cargo door at the end was icing on the cake! It's like he knew you were there!
I watched several videos of the Mach Loop and yours is the best hands-down. Thank you for your efforts in bringing this to TH-cam so we can all enjoy it.
We had on fly over our office not long ago, I’m not sure why the physics are what they are but that semi hover position is extremely noisy. We have jets fly over and they can be louder for a very short time, but the Osprey vibrated the whole building for a good 3 - 4 seconds. It was so much that some co-workers that normally tune all the aircraft noise out stopped what they were doing to try and figure out what was happening. It is pretty sweet. It’s the sound you hear at about 5:34 - 5:50
@@schneiderphotoMD It has to do with how the props themselves are rotated. It also happens on the second chinook in the video when the aircraft pitches the nose up. I suspect that the large Osprey blades at that certain prop angle creates more drag, and thus increases the sound output. The sound could also be increased due to the lack of cyclic control on the props too, but I'm likely wrong on that.
Henry Demeter That stream you see is just the air being disturbed by the movement of the wings on the plane. The Mach loop is mountain range in Wales UK where military aircraft perform low level flying training exercises
Excellent footage you have with each video. Must be fun for you to live in such a place like this that you get to capture. Big thank you to you and all who comtributed throughout the years to keep our country the greatest place to live!
My best memory of fighters on manoeuvres in the sky would have been playing near the estuary in Ynyslas, Wales as a kid in the 80s. I'm guessing a bulk of the planes I saw and heard would have been Tornados and possibly some Harriers. The noise was deafening, terrifying and yet exhilarating to a young me! Thanks for the upload!
The Osprey is by far the coolest and my absolute favorite aircraft. I love seeing those things in action. Second favorite would be the Chinooks. Just love the heart pounding sound they make.
Excellent video a Big Thanks! 👍 Real nice and had several aircrafts and the type of aircraft they were. I worked on the F-15 for almost my whole career and you never get tired of watching them.
Great stuff. I have a mate who was a rear door gunner on Chinooks in Afghanistan. He told his mum and dad they just delivered mail so they wouldn't worry. He didn't tell them they delivered mail and supplies to forward bases and throw it out the door as quickly as possible so they didn't get mortared on the landing pad.
1:00 to 1:18 is my favorite part. It reminds me of air shows back in the early 90's when the F-14 Tomcats were still used. They were the loudest aircraft I ever heard fly overhead :)

Tobias Flohr JG73, Richthofen? Or is that JG71? At Almost 73 years of age even old former active duty Marine Corps fighter pilots get rusty.
@@arttafil6792 JG 71 Richthofen, correct. JG 73 was called Steinhoff, now it's 'TaktLwG 73 "S" ', located in Laage since 1994
Love the part with the guys waving from the Hercules cargo door
My uncle is ex RAF
He bought an old mill house near here. We used to stay in the summer and watch the aircraft
5:31 cv-22 Ospray you mean
Nope it was the strix 98 A herky
@@beneluxairplanes yeah saw them too … how much fun is that?
Benelux airplane spotting And a Hercules....
nice aircraft but what a stunning landscape
Wales is one beautiful country.
Wales is an awesome country (this is coming from an Englishman). I love the accent as well.
those poor country homesteads
I'd imagine they're used to it. I remember going on holiday up there as a child 40 years ago and watching them from the top of the mountain.
@@MsPinkwolf people have been campaigning for years to get rid of them, affecting people's mental health and disturbing the peace.
Wow that Strix Hercules pass was quality. Big up to the chap waving back to you all!

Beautiful place beautiful scenery where two great allies train their top gunners together 🇬🇧🤝🇺🇲 amazing sight 😊
The only way to describe this video is..... An audio and visual assault on the eyes and ears. Brilliant!!
I personally achieved 3 eargasms without a cigarette in between !!
The Pratt & Whitney F100 sound so freaking incredible! Your within eye sight when they take off...I freaking LOVE that ROAR right into a SCREAM! It never get's old.
F-15 is the most perfect warplane ever conceived. Designed 50 years ago and still the most fearsome fighter in the world. Simply amazing.
But bloody noisy !!! Jesus, one of those things at 300ft full thrust rattles your insides.
Wait it's a 50 year old design?!
@@Sp00kq But what a design !!!
@@markwestwood9730 ikr
Their SOUND was breathe taking, a terrific show they ALL performed, enjoyed.
Love watching the big birds like C-17, A400M and even the Herc yank and bank through the Loop too.
Good work!!
Thanks for posting.
Great airmanship from the
C130 crews!
*THE Mach Loop I have been waiting for!!*
Chills and tears!!

I love the back of the Chinnok's, always looks like a shocked face to me.
Hahaha 🤣 You're right! I never noticed that before.

Consistently the finest Mach Loop content on here. Great work Elwyn R whoever you are!
Those F-15's "milking the air" at mach loop, fantastic video!
Amazing video! Thank you for the smooth camera work, and not adding a cheezy soundtrack like so many do. Those sounds were chilling. How amazing it must have sounded in those valleys.
went to Brecon Beacons with school back in the mid 80s and recall seeing the jets screaming down the valleys, great stuff!!:)
Crazy how old the f15 is now. It's still such a solid and good looking design.
Thank goodness for the fact that both of these countries continue to train together, reinforcing our historic alliance. Together, we are better and stronger.
The F15 is such a gorgeous beast of an aircraft.
OMG!! Put this on my bucket list of paces to go!!! And the guy waving out of the cargo door at the end was icing on the cake! It's like he knew you were there!
The thing that made me smile the most? The good old JP! ☺

Great camera work as usual. That Osprey setting off someone's car alarm. :)

Had the most "variety" of any video of the "Loop" I have ever seen.

6:40 tip vortices on the tailerons, wow! That's unusual to see! You lucky! :D
cheers, yes that a good location in the right weather condition's
Totally!
Someday I have to plan a trip to Mach Loop :D
Pardon my ignorance. What causes the streamers off of the wing tips? And, what is the Mach loop.? Thanks in advance.
Henry Demeter
That stream you see is just the air being disturbed by the movement of the wings on the plane.

Elwyn R thanks for the fantastic opportunity to watch the Mighty Military in the low level Flight mission
Guys waving at 8:40 :D
Talk about a window seat...
Or maybe not
Ha! Awesome
Stunning filming. Almost like being there.
Flying was always a dream of mankind, a wonder that so few people do...
Epic, really! For me the A400, the Osprey and that swept ‘nado. Thanks for posting
Beautiful work! The best thing about work like this is that it lives on forever for people to enjoy.. Thank you!
“Flight of F15’s,flying North to South of the Mach Loop,500ft,500knots for the next 30 mics”.what a dream to say across the net!
Wow, pure beauty and music to my ears. I'm always inspired by the pilots to work a little harder at what ever it is I am doing.
Those high speed passes around the 7 minutes mark, wow whoever filmed those did a great job.
Im a proud US Citizen,God Bless America! 🇺🇲💪
Just watched the video again 5/5/20, still love these F-15’s!
Awesome video! On my bucket list to cross the pond some day and witness this first hand

Loving that JP can't beat a classic trainer like that
Excellent video a Big Thanks! 👍
Real nice and had several aircrafts and the type of aircraft they were.
I worked on the F-15 for almost my whole career and you never get tired of watching them.
That is some cool jets.. super cool 😎
That is a brilliant collection of many aircraft.
The quality of your recording is outstanding.
Thank you.
Nice vid to show the kids, the different types of planes.
Great video! Every time I watch one of these I cannot help but imagine how much fun this has to be for the pilots.
Just when you are enjoying some lovely footage of some great planes, a bloody Osprey shows up!! ;-)
2:11 My Play Station 4 when I play it at 3am
Awesome quality and perfect tracking of each plane....you just get better and better Elwyn. 🏆👍🏼😊
cheers
He's pretty good! My first airshow I found tracking to be pretty easy with my Nikon D300 DSLR. Have yet to try recording.
Great stuff. I have a mate who was a rear door gunner on Chinooks in Afghanistan. He told his mum and dad they just delivered mail so they wouldn't worry. He didn't tell them they delivered mail and supplies to forward bases and throw it out the door as quickly as possible so they didn't get mortared on the landing pad.
This footage is incredible, in terms of video quality, sound quality, and subject matter! Well-done. I'd love to check that out.
cheers
I saw an f22 demo last year and it was the coolest damn thing I’ve ever seen lol
F-15. Smooth as it glides through the air. 40 years old and still going strong. I love how it sharply banks.
those usaf lads's definitely on youtube looking for that flyby.
Seeing that CV-22 Ospray was awesome, I love those.
The quality of this vid is outstanding Elwyn! Awesome mate. Thank you!
Elwyn,
Top Man!
Excellent Footage!
& descriptions too!,
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I'd love to go there and camp overnight to be woken up by one of these jets lol.
The osprey looks like something out of a Terminator movie. I love it.
Absolutely love watching your stuff almost as good as being there, Thanks.
Fantastic footage.. Thankyou for the upload I really enjoyed watching this.. I’ve always wanted to go.. on the bucket list
Well done Elwyn. Thank you
that is some super great photography.well done.
Thank you so much 😀
The McDonnell Douglas F-15 is one of the greatest fighter planes ever built. EVER!
Excellent video. I used to live and work near Andrews AF Base in Florida and had some fighters fly over me a few times. So unbelievably loud.
ELWYN as usual amazing footage a real HD .thank you and Congratulations
Epic, love the white rooster tails on the banking....
It’s my dream to work on these jets, they are truly amazing
Go and chase that dream!
@@Ry43deck I sure will man !
Nessy is on her back with a smoothie. perfect old boy
The last one was the best one. What an amazing experience dat must be....
This is really a treat! I've seen none better than your video work at the Loop.
thanks,
What a beautiful high quality video. Good job!
One of the best mach loop vids ever !
Thanks for that, cool vid. That F-15 coming straight at the camera about the 4 minute mark was especially great :)
Great video! Awesome quality! Love that condensation on those Eagle’s wings
Awesome vid as usual Mr Elwyn, looking forward to the next one. Be Safe;-).
Its been nearly 60 years and the hawker hunters still look badass
These are great! I always look forward to your new videos!
cheers.
my favourite in the world f15, sr71,yf12,b2😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍👌👌👌👌
The F-15 Eagle sounds great, but I think the silhouette of the aircraft is the most beautiful of all jet fighters.
I like how the sound waves set off all those car alarms
Amazing video footage. Beautiful birds.
Glad you enjoyed it
my childhood dream,
damn i would have sit there all day watching them fly by
best thing ever
Eagles are a piece of classic art.
Pretty incredible sounds and footage of Fighters, Transport aircraft and helicopters 🤩😎👍
Fantastic video. Love the aspect ratio. The best seat in the house are the airmen waving from the back of the Herc.
1:00 to 1:18 is my favorite part. It reminds me of air shows back in the early 90's when the F-14 Tomcats were still used. They were the loudest aircraft I ever heard fly overhead :)

Great video. I wish I could experience this first hand.
Outstanding!! Very cool. Great work Elwyn.
That Osprey is gorgeous
These pilots have the best job in the world
Beautiful displays from the pilots.
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing Elwyn! (thumbs up emoji)!
Nine minutes of pureness. Love it 😍
those chinooks are the best for the mach loop
