From T6 Texan II's , T-38 Talons, to F-15's + your respective NASP graduate CSO's (my son is one), wow have you all have progressed!!! Congratulations to one and all! FLY AIR FORCE!! God Bless America!
Now, to see SIX(6) of them flying abreast like that gives me CHILLS and it's one of the most BEAUTIFUL scenes the eye can behold!!! Also, those peel offs for final approach were too SWEET!!! WELCOME HOME GENTLEMEN AND YOU GUYS ARE SOMETHING "SERIOUS"!!!😀👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾👌🏾👍🏾💪🏾❤💯
Formation!! Hah! Beautiful way to approach in to a safe flight and landing to see and to getting ready to reunite with your family members and friends that love you all
Did 2 tours at the "Heath" but want to share a story with you all. I was stationed at George AFB in California from 84-86 & we flew F-4G Wild Weasels. They did a deployment to Jever AB, Germany & did the same formation only to have 2 of the jets collide then go down. The aircrews survived, but the Wing Commander got sacked. When I saw this formation that incident in Germany in '84 immediately came to mind.
What a gorgeous, menacing looking bird the F-15E is! Love the sound of those nozzles flexing just before touchdown as they ride the throttles. Great video of a great flock of Eagles!
In 1963 as a trainee hotel assistant manager at the Golden Lion Hotel in Hunstanton, Norfolk I met my first Americans, both fighter pilots out of Lakenheath AFB. The would leave the hotel in the morning, drive to the base, fly all over Europe, North Africa etc and return around 5 pm, just another working day. One I recall was Gerald Knapp. My name at the time was Jim Wright. Gerry and his lovely wife rented an apartment across the Green and had me over for dinner one night.
@@insanelewis21 Thanks, but my point is they could've spaced the formation out 10 km's away from the base, and descend smoothly like a passenger plane, yet they 'go around' above the runway as a routine. What's the point? For training purposes?
@@cwilliam2133 The formation flying is about staying within visual, attempting to "cloak" a flight of a/c as a single ship, saves fuel. But in this case they wanted to arrive "home" as a group, for photo ops, family etc. These guys/gals are returning home after war.
Never thought you could make it anyway good luck LOL all you guys are awesome thank you so much. Father's Day is coming soon you better give respect your daddy sons daughters and keep them all safe. Thank you all so much for your exponentially badass effort to do this work it's a hard job and you have to let something go and you have to let it all fly. Don't be dumbasses. Take a clue from me

A beautiful thing. That tingly feeling in my tummy and the need to scream very loudly when a fast jet goes over....

Unless ... you are looking a bombing run of SIX(6) of them from the receiving end (just guessing)
@@zebradgr8339 Well, if that was the case then "NO" it wouldn't be at all.
Great Video! Today our F-15s from the 104th FW left for TDY....WELCOME HOME from Western Massachusetts!
bob bobbo is that what all the activity was here at 0500?
Opsec
Godspeed and Good hunting to the men and women of the 104th FW! I'm from California, but my Uncle was born and raised on a farm in Amherst...
Welcome back to Blighty guys. 'God Bless America'
The f15s are such a awesome jet
Remember when the eagles came, 87. Still a joy to see them rumble over my house! 🇬🇧 🇺🇸 . Xx
Salty are we luke
It does the heart good to see that was a thing of beauty
Its a big piece of hitec metall and electronics, built to kill people. I also like airplanes, but beautyness is something created between you ears.
Formation!! Hah! Beautiful way to approach in to a safe flight and landing to see and to getting ready to reunite with your family members and friends that love you all
My favourite USAF jet of all time.
Glad they made it home safe and sound!😁
Only old school Airman will remember this. William Tell Overture played after each major exercise...

Iconic war bird. Great footage, Welcome back. 🇬🇧 🇺🇸
If this doesn’t give you the cool chills you’re not american 🇺🇸🇺🇸💪😎
I know that field, and I’ve waved to those plane watchers. I reset a few cables from an IFE to a crowd of cameras. I enjoyed England.
Welcome back home!! Check your 6 and keep your formatting tight
The Eagle, beautiful years ago and beautiful today ...
GOD I LOVE BEING AMERICAN THANK YOU BOYS FOR A JOB WELL DONE GOD BLESS THE U.S.A MILITARY
We saw them on their flight path which is in line with our lounge window, awesome!

Just think 400billion a piece. Most powerful ,stealth technology expensive fighter jets
Which way ?
Anyone of you know which USAF squadron used to carry ‘CR’ on the tails of their Eagles?????
Soesterberg AFB 32TFS in the Netherlands
Frank Klaster Yes indeed Frank! Their nickname was ‘wolfhounds’. They are remembering well over here!
Any from vt?
nice
Shave the first ninety seconds of nothing and it’s then terrific.
Disagree . That is beautiful English heathland ! Hence the name Laken Heath.
How many USAF jets are based in the United Kingdom ?
Nice...wonder what the 2 folded up Stars and Stripes were fir sitting on the windshield selves.
Why don't they descend and land directly, but do a 'go around' one after another?
Spaces the formation out

Awesome catch mate! What device did you use to listen to RAF Lakenheaths ATC
Its from a uniden 3500
What's the sandpit?
The Middle East
Call the ball, hook down,flaps down,landing gear down. Oh shit, its USAF no US Navy!😁👍🇱🇷🤘
Two seat F-15E Strike Eagles
Put air port ,to down in sharm shekh ,when it alarm from me ,fly and down
I have mad respect for the F22 and 35 but give me a F-15 Eagle or A-10 Warthog any day. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
It's going to get better. The updated F-15EX should hit in the next year or so.
Photoship or sloppy formation?
Ok ,go on
More of Lakenheath here

I love the howling sound of the turbines when they slowly fly by. Always made me search the skies.
Love it👍🏾💯🔥🔥🔥🫡
