You're a beast Katie! 99% of "normal" people would have tapped out about 5 mins in. You got the FULL Monty! You had a hell of a good and personable pilot to take you on the journey and explain all the little details. Some just let you sit back there an puke while beating you up.

@@KutWrite yeah, but i think she felt just a bit too queasy at that moment. I imagine it’s very different being a passenger where you can just feel disoriented at the back but that would have no impact on the flight whatsoever vs being a “pilot.” But kudos to her, 9.6Gs! Wow! Bit envious too cuz flying in a fighter jet is my absolute dreaaammmm
@@nimaside The F-16's "offical" name is "The fighting Falcon" but no one uses that name. Its called "Viper" as in a viper from Battlestar Galactica which first aired on TV when the F-16 came into service.
Literally one of the best vids out there imo. Really get to see the raw speed and bsb on the low ground passes.... super amazing what these machines and the people who fly them are capable of doing
The the fastest she will ever get to 10k ft in her life. Props to her for not blowing chunks or G-locking. Hope she knows she physically has what it takes and not everyone does.
G-loc. Loss of consciousness. Nothing locks. And yeah absolutely. She seems high energy so its pretty clear she's in an excellent state of physical health which probably contributing to her performance. She also has a short neck, which is another good characteristic of someone who can handle their G's.
As a civilian, I took a ride out of Shaw AFB, Sumter, SC with the 79th FS, tail 91-468, a Block 50. In fact, it could have been in this same jet as I keep hearing references to Shaw, and Shaw has a Runway 22, which was the departing runway. In order to fly in the F-16, I was given a training course the day before to include Ingress/Egress, Life Support and Hang and Harness. This training included the complete outfitting of a G-suit and a custom fitting for the helmet and oxygen mask. In this video, for the first couple of minutes she is fighting with her oxygen mask and seemed unprepared to arm the ejection seat, both suggesting that she somehow skipped the training. Anyhow, it was great flight and brought memories of my flight. BTW, I did a similar departure to 15,000 ft with an Immelmann, then offshore where we went supersonic, pulled a few G's and flew low and fast. A couple of years later, I flew a KC-135 refueling mission out of Seymour Johnson AFB, which included the refueling of F-15E Strike Eagles. That was awesome as well. These pilots are all great!
@@antimonyparadox6996 I understand, but I also understand that maintainers also qualify for an incentive flight. My pilot flew twice that day, me in the morning and a maintainer in the afternoon. I talked to my pilot a couple of days later and he said the maintenance man handled it like a champ.
well, technically the seat would not be jettisoned since it was not armed at that point. however, if she had mixed up the levers when disarming after landing, they would have made the news.. :)
When he told her to pull a lever just after she said her helmet wasn't working I figured she'd be taking the quickest route back to the hangar to get a refit via ejector seat 😅
That was so much more visual due to the clouds. Really captured the sense of speed.. stunning video.. and OMG .. she did great. Very brave and persevered right to the end !!👏👏
Haha! He had no mercy on her and she took it. Sad she had to cut it short though. Flying it for a bit would've been a great memory and bragging rights.
What a great video, she did great taking the G's... Her mask seemed to be in-correctly sized, (bayonet clips were bottomed out ),very loose shoulder straps and lap restaint. Flight equipment person really didn't do their job...there could have been a very bad outcome. Watch those yellow handles...what a great pilot, who gave her memories to last a lifetime. USMC E-4 1980-86 flight equipment / parachute rigger. Semper Fidelis. Take care, Be safe.
Awesome 👏🏻. I had an incentive flight in a T37 as a cadet. It was awesome! I can only imagine how much more fun a Viper must be. Aim High baby!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Vigilance of the pitot towards the end of the video is impressive 'looking for concrete' etc I mean that was an experience watching that I can't even imagine what it felt like. Fantastic work all around including just superb engineering and production.
I never got a ride at Shaw but I got one at Luke. We flew the length of the Grand Canyon (above, not in it). I was not ready to go home and if we could have hit a tanker I would have kept going. Don't know who "Katie" is but not knowing how to arm the seat tells me she is not in maintenance. Rain mentioned neverending concern about the engine quitting. We had a pilot in the 79th that punched out with a crewchief in the back seat off the coast of Korea. He always told us he would never do another incentive ride. I miss my days in the greatest Air Force in the world.
"Those don't sound very friendly..." LOL! She did good. I had the great fortune to do 3 (or was it four, been too long)...worst was as chase (#2) on a LANTIRN sortie (our job was to watch lead so they didn't smack terrain - he was under the hood). Puked my guts out; hot day, negative-G. Ugh. But I STILL went back for more. On that first Viper ride, even with 2 bags of gas and 2 AGM-65's, the takeoff planted a smile on my face so hard it still hurts (40-some years later). People have no idea how physical this is. Good video.
And it's still a childhood dream to be a jet pilot... I'm so happy for everyone who made it, they can be so proud of themselves to have one of the most exciting jobs on this Planet!
In more than capable hands with Maj Waters. Katie you are in top shape for sure. It's something you have to experience for yourself to understand how the strain just exhausts you so quickly. Major Waters, vous êtes un Chasseur pour sûr. Merci pour la balade. Continuez à atteindre les étoiles. 🇫🇷 ⚓ 🤙🏼
"What does that mean?" Somebody didn't get Egress training before their flight. Several flights at Shaw myself. I was aircrew at 9th AF Stan/Eval. A Herc guy. In the mid 90's.
Woooooow!!! How amazing is this lady? I could've bet she was gonna pass out, at the least. She didn't even lose consciousness not a bit. I've seen videos where the rider passed out, right after puking. I know I'd have done all of the above mentioned.
Gran entrenamiento!!! El instructor mantiene una comunicación permanente, pregunta y alienta. Anticipa. Y brinda seguridad. Muy buen video. De lo mejor, para entender la fuerza aérea y la élite del pilotaje.
Amazing that she took those Gs so well!! I know many a hairy chested men who would have tapped out waaaaayy before she did. Good on her to call it quits when she reached her limit. 9,6Gs?!? Wow. Well done Katie!
@@danielh1708 That's not true whatsoever. Men are taller which is where the old tale of women can handle vertical Gs better fable came out of. That's why the F-16 has a 30 degree slant backward in the seat. Further, men have more muscle mass in the abdomen to pressure hold blood. I hope you are not a physician.
OMG! So much great banter in this video. You literally had my wife rolling on the floor Rain. (I'm not sure how I feel about that yet hah) The first that comes to mind is... Rain: "OK, we have two maneuvers left. The knife Edfe, and the Dedication Pass." Katie: "Those don't sound too friendly." Rain: "That depends on who your friends are." 😂🤣😂
Excellent video. 9.6Gs is a lot. I used to pass out at about 7G, but very dependent on seat angle. Formation, the best! We even taxied in formation, doing S turns 'cos we were flying tail draggers most of the time. CAVU skies to all aviators. Must have moustache to be a fighter pilot, so maybe give the ladies an honorary stick- on- one. In the evenings, take the mess apart with lots of beer!! Once we were warriors.
Well done in the 9g's!!! I did 5g without any suit/training/technique and I began losing my sight already. The difference between 4-5 for me was massive and so I didn't push it more.
Great vid! Your “copilot” did well also. Question: what was causing the slamming noises during the high G maneuvers? Was it just the physical grunting passing thru the intercom? Sounded very metallic. Thank you for your service! John H USAF (ret)
I actually gotta respect her there. She had the opportunity to take the stick, realized she was a bit queasy, and decided it'd probably be better not to.
I love our country and the badass planes we build...this is an older jet but when it comes to new jets and technology the USA trumps everyone. Great video.
I live near Homestead Air Reserve base. These guys fly by all day, everyday. The occasional F-15 duo, and during the the Homestead Speedway races, F-22s! Never have to pay for an airshow...lol!😁
Im lucky enough to have flown in an RAF Hawk (fast jet trainer) and a Tornado GR4. I can safely say the rides were the experiences of a lifetime and G forces were something i've never even come close to repeating......
“Don’t forget to tell me when to breathe”
“Oh, just keep on breathing, that’ll be a good thing period” 😂😂

Two thoughts: 1) Fighter pilots are absolute rock stars, and 2) she did a-m-a-z-i-n-g taking those Gs.
Better than I did!

You should make a video of your most memorable incentive flights you have given.

Why are they called Viper or Falcon? I don't understand the different name uses.

Thought the same thing.. gear up and we're passing 3000... Lol
Literally one of the best vids out there imo. Really get to see the raw speed and bsb on the low ground passes.... super amazing what these machines and the people who fly them are capable of doing
I can’t believe she did that without locking or puking, great work 👏

Physiologically women handle G's better than men.
@@danielh1708 That's not true whatsoever. Men are taller which is where the old tale of women can handle vertical Gs better fable came out of.
