FLIGHT CHOPS DISCLAIMER:
I am a "weekend warrior" private pilot, I fly for fun with no intentions of going commercial. I have had my PPL for over 15 years, but still consider each flight a learning experience - I generally take detailed notes after each flight to remind myself what went well or what I could do to improve.... Having the GoPro cameras to record flights like this is invaluable. I find these self analysis videos very helpful in my constant quest to improve, and am happy to share. Feedback is invited; however, please keep it positive.
Absolutely some of the best Reno coverage I have ever seen... Thank you FlightChops!!!
I agree with you Jim
I agree, absolutely awesome being in the cockpit with these guys!
I CONCUR SIR. SURE BEATS THE HELL OUT OF THE OLD WIDE WORLD OF SPORTS COVERAGE FROM BACK IN THE DAY!
Jim Baumann p
except for the "music"
When strapping a GoPro to a P-51 there is almost a century difference in technologies. That's awesome.
ITs actually 60 years difference. Not quite comfortable with calling that "almost a century difference in technologies". But you can do that if you must.
@M H Doobs There's a few Tigermoths flying around my city for joyflights. Not a laughing matter. More of a feeling of nostalgia to a time I was never a part of.
@@KOxHARxMORNY 80 years from now. but the gopro has been around since 2002. You didnt invent it last week.
are american years also measured in some retarded unit or do you suck at math?
First P51 mustang built: 1942
First GoPro built: 2004
difference: 2004-1942 = 62. thats what you call a century?
Do you americans know what century means?
Century means 100 years, comes from the latin word "centum"
38 years off is an "almost" to you? it's actually far closer to half a century (50 years) than to a full century.
Travis Parkinson something to consider is the current model GoPro is not the same technology as the 2002 GoPro. The hero 7 has advanced camera stabilization technology, better audio, better resolution, better battery, slow motion, better memory, etc. in 2002 the current GoPro wasn’t able to be built. Really if you want to say the 2002 GoPro is the same technology as a hero 7 than that would be like saying the wright flyer is the same technology as a p51. Yea they’re both planes but new designs and materials have been used to improve upon previous models of airplanes. Either way it’s cool to see modern technology on an early 1900’s aircraft
Watching that in cockpit camera footage, I can't help but imagine what it was like to be a 21 year old 2nd lieutenant taking that mustang into combat.
Right?!
This blew my mind.
I'm not even sure how many hours they had when they went in. It's probably a good thing they were fearless young men.
✌️♥️🇺🇲
@@MagravatorMag many young pilots in the RAF had as little as ten hours before being dropped in at the deep end during the Battle of Britain in 1940.
@@davidmarshall1259 Geez! And it was all mechanical! No auto anything. Very brave young men! ❤️ They saved Brittain for sure. Probably Europe too. 🇬🇧
YAK-IN-THE-BOX! I chose the wrong time to take a drink of coffee, now I have a mess to clean up. That was classic.
denny thomas ppppp
🤣🤣🤣🤣
i´m a noob in aircraft language, can you tell me what it means? (yak in the box)
@rpr6.5 creedmoor and what it means? (jack in the box)
That was seriously touching when he thanked his dad after the flight. I hope my boy and I have that kind of relationship later in life
If you let him fly your USD 2.7 mill bird, yes.
@@aw195 lmao... Sad but fuckin true
billiondollardan "I hope my boy and I have that kind of relationship later in life". If for some reason you fellows don't have it going on, to well, might I implore You to work at having your relationship now. 'Later' will take care of itself, I believe. My son was in Force Recon during Desert Shield and Desert Storm. He passed away some years later and I never got to say the things, to him, to tighten up our relationship for then and later. If I'm off base, here, my apologies. Have a blessed day.
@@aw195 You do realize prices go down as newer things come out right? Hell, people will probably own F-20's in their own garages in the next fifty years.
@@vinyltapelover Well said; I'm sure he knows.
That father son hug was a man moment.
9:52 - "NICE JOB KIDDO" - holy cow .... if i ever heard praise like that.....
I grew up at the Reno Air Races. Every year from age 12 to 23, in the 80's and 90's. I got to be right in the thick of it in the pits, because my step dad had a plane and hanger at Stead. It was an amazing time in my life, and it will always be in my blood. I haven't been in over a decade, but miss it and my favorite plane and pilot, Lefty Gardner in Race 13, that beautiful P-38 "White" lightning.
Taking "Go fast, turn left" to a WHOLE new level.
I've watched videos about Reno until I'm blue in the face, but until I've watched this, I didn't know how crazy intense it is. Something about the part where he was getting passed by the other mustang that was lower was just insane. Kudos to all the pilots and great video.
Thank you so much! I started going to the races in 84 but I left Reno in 2000. I miss it so much! I love hearing them fly over in the background. That's why they sell CD's of just the sound at the booths. There's really nothing like it and I'm thrilled to see the interest from the pilots. I hope the cash prizes makes it worth coming because I know people from all over the world love watching them race.
Love all the camera angles! I also found it interesting that these teams aren't using cameras / video to watch back and improve their racing.
Especially interesting considering that sports teams (including motorsports) have been recording themselves and debriefing using those recordings for decades.
That's some seriously inspirational stuff. I hadn't touched a flight sim in years yet this was what was needed to bring out the passion. Chur bol
DCS?
This is by far one of your best productions yet. Same as the RV one... Looking forward to seeing your progress on the RV14.
Ahh Dreadnought... you just keep giving my those warm fuzzy Madera flashbacks! It was great to see Bill Destefani again, too. I rode with him when we did the mock air race at Madera with Dreadnought and Sumthin Else. Loved every minute of this.
Beautiful video, thank you for these 20 minutes of happiness and ecstasy. Long live the "Reno Air Race" and these pilots !!!
So fun to re watch this after spending the week at the 2019 races. Keep up the killer work man!
I absolutely love the Reno Air Races. I’ve been attending the races for the past 10 years.
Absolutely the best, most in depth capture of the show that has ever been done.
Great program, Thanks! Reno is now on my bucket list.
Reno coverage as good as it gets! Awesome work! I can’t believe how busy it gets in the cockpit!
That initial race run in! Seeing all of them next to each other running in, that was awesome...
Awesome. The shot at 16:35 is awesome to see all the planes lined up in anger. Sierra Hotel!
Awesome video. The races were the highlight of my summer last year! Can't wait to go back.
Wow! This is awesome footage! Some of the best ever! The music was perfect...not to loud and great selection. Thanks!
That was one of the absolutly best Reno coverage I have ever seen! Very good camera positions, very good editing! Congratulation! Sinserely, the Norwegian!
Great video, Steve. Thanks for allowing us to see this from your point of view!
There is just something singularly beautiful about the P-51D.
In my opinion it's still the sexiest aircraft ever made, and the sound!
@Phil McCrevice Not sure about the Stuka, but I agree that some other planes had their own appeal including the P-38, Typhoon, Mosquito.
@Phil McCrevice i wish we had more flyable german planes. The later G models and the K4 (which none exist anymore) were beautiful. Id love a fw 190 Dora.
@Phil McCrevice I like the F4U. Something to do with its odd proportions most likely.
@Солнцевская Братва My memory is a little foggy, could you remind me who won WWII? I do recall the "Tuskegee Airmen" made pretty effective use of the P-51 Mustang!
you present unprecedented views and full coverage of all the essentials. you really bring us there and educate with actionable information for those of us who wish to fly and want to learn. you do great work. thank you flight chops!
Great video! Those aircraft, pilots, and crews are amazing!
This was a fantastic video! It really makes me want to not only go to Reno, but keep pushing myself further with my certifications and get to tail draggers and war birds. Literally gave me goosebumps watching the races.
Get after it! Tail Wheel flying makes you better at everything else!
I remember attending the Reno Air Races back in 2000 and fast forward to 2019 and its still rocks.
Chops....excellent POV and camera angle of view placement; your TV background is showin'! Good job!
Music choice and editing was on top form for this vid. You could easily turn this into a series.
Agreed. The electronic beats he had for the first race was the best choice I think (but that's just a subjective opinion).
I agree completely. Top notch stuff.
I have a similar channel but without narration...just some of my aviation experiences set to music. I'd love to have more visitors!
Incredible editing as always! That was fun to watch. Thanks for always delivering such high quality videos.
I appreciate that you noticed the editing work - a lot went into this one :)
As they made the turn to come down the chute in the unlimited gold, i found my heartrate coming up and the familiar tingle of adrenaline...
Great video, as usual!
now this, is pod racing.
clicked on this video specifically to find this comment. Took me about 10 seconds to find it LOL
I'm In the comment section explicitly for this too.
Phil McCrevice the ability to speak doesn’t make you intelligent
Austin Tx. should of gone this rout instead of The Circuit Of Americas (sic). Guise it's all about the $$$.
HERESY680 I almost commented that
Yes I'm in New Zealand and that Yak 3 is just amazing to be around with a hiss and a roar
most fantastic footage i've seen so far ! great job !
Great to see Miss America! I'm 70 Y.O. and I remember seeing her at Abbotsford back in the 60's and 70's. Bob Hoover flew her a few times while she was there.
Loved the emotions and appreciation between Dad and Son.
Lovely work putting this all together dude, well done!
Thanks for noticing the work! A lot went into figuring out how to tell this story.
Amazing Amazing. Chops has the best aviation channel on the platform. The editing on this one is insane, can't imagine how much time and effort went into it, but Thankyou!!
Thank you for recognizing the post production work - this was a very tough edit, but I am really happy with how it came together and it is rewarding to receive this sort of feedback after all the hours spent in the studio cutting this one!
What a fantastic video. Absolutely amazing perspective!
I'd love to see this one day! Only racing I've seen in person are the red bull air races which are fantastic but old warbirds have always had my heart
You nailed it! Thanks for the excellent footage!!!!!!
FC,
By far the best video yet my brother! Keep em comin'!
Awesome episode!
Great camera angles. Watching this makes me feel like I just haven’t lived.
Haha - glad you enjoyed it - these guys really are living the dream - but they work really hard to do it - lots of sacrifices for them to be there at this level.
Thanks for making and sharing these videos! Bread and butter for any aviation enthusiast 👍
My first ever self-portrait was taken by shooting a picture of myself in the reflection of Crusader's shiny propeller at an EAA regional fly-in. He's also flown at my R/C airplane airfield during Warbirds Over the Rockies. Cool to see this video.
Great shots absolutely dream flying!!
You hoped we'd enjoy? I am ecstatic. Thank you. Fabulous flying: fabulous filming.
That is freaking incredible! How amazing must it feel to race with a bunch of other warbirds!?
I'm sure it's comprehendible
ethan spaziani incomprehensible?
"Dancing Feet" JP is bad ass. Great video, great editing and production! Thanks Chops!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I was at the Races yesterday 2019 . As a pilot not a racer I appreciate this perspective in the cockpit very much . Thank You for your efforts ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
only 4 stars??? This production of the Reno air races deserves 5/5 stars, best video I have EVER seen for AIR racing.
Daniel Lee ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This was great, Steve! Thanks for sharing! Now I have another venue added to my LONG and growing list of aviation related stops to make, at some point. 😉 👍👍
Bucket list stuff! Also this is some great editing you've done.
Love these air races, awesome content! Thank you!
"Debrief, bring it up"
Ugly passes, why I quit Biplane racing at Reno years ago.
At least you now have PRS to enforce some basic formation flying skills.
Thanks for posting!
You used to race biplanes at Reno? That's pretty cool.
Awesome! It was my first Reno Air Race last year as well and I actually saw you walking around.
This is your best video I've seen so far! It's a lot of work to get all those cameras and mounts. Then lots of edits.... Thank you for making our sport available to so many. Cheers, Kirb
Glad you enjoyed it!
Steveo. Thank you for this great video review and window into Reno.
That was amazing!! I love the old war birds!
That was amazing, just brilliant work with the cameras there.
Those guys must have huge..... courage (and skill), it looks utterly terrifying.
Nah, if you had time to worry about it, you'd already be dead or not racing!
Still love seeing all these warbirds getting so much love. Sea furies especially
That’s really cool stuff Mr. Chops, plane freaks dream!
This was so cool! I have to go see this someday!! Awesome work getting all this footage its amazing!
I'm glad to have this to work on and share during this challenging year. (it was filmed summer 2018 which seems like forever ago now.)
Great onboard views. Thumbs Up!
Awesome coverage FlightChops! Arrived here via the comment on sound recording link you posted on Trent's latest vlog - Sep 2021... Been addicted to backcountry shenanigans a while too long I guess.
Great to catch up with where and what old NZ AF buddies have been up to via TH-cam - even if it was two years ago! Way to go JEM Aviation at Omaka, NZ - run by the ever talented Jay 'McTank'n'Tyre' E. McIntyre 4:02 - boy's done well :)
Great video! I miss the Reno Air Races. I flew the CH-47 Chinook demo several times back in the early 2000s and used to work with Pete Law on several of the ADI systems for these race planes. Got to take a ride with Ike Enns in The Miracle Maker once. Unbelievable.
Such a fun event, even the crowd in the boxes. Gas powered margarita machines, kiddy pool dive contests. That race weekend is nothing short of a great time
I was too busy in the pits to catch some of that stuff! Will have to get back next year!
Awesome. My Great, Great Uncle was apparently fond of flying under bridges. He would have loved this.
“Those chumps at Nascar” couldn’t agree more 🛫
Love this honest no BS quality video thanks for putting this out there.great example of what TH-cam used to and should try and get back too. Like that’s ever gonna happen.
"allowed me to have fun holding onto the stick" LEGEND.
AWESOME footage! Thanks mate!
I'm on my way !...First time Reno this year, ....booking R.V. spot, event seats , pit pass etc. as I watch this.... I just know being in the crowd is way better than You Tube so... HERE I COME,... Thanks for the front line see all video ! hope to see ya at this Falls race.
awesome content Chops - thanks - need to get there
I got tickets for Saturday Sept 14th. Can't freaking wait to see this.
Thanks a bunch for sharing that. Amazing stuff.
This is just beyond awesome
Excellent coverage
Awesome footage! Thanks.
Production values 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
As usual, great content !
Great coverage. RTS is my home field, and it seems strange to see all my local landmarks at three times the speed my aircraft can achieve.
what an amazing video. great work covering this event.
it pisses me off that the youtube algorithm wants to bury this type of content.
Awesome video Steve.
The GoPro digital technology makes it possible to record amazingly clear coverage of these events. These warbirds have fascinated me my entire life. Thanks, FlightChops!
I love how much sportsmanship there is here. I guess you can't really afford to try dirty manoeuvres and it can easily result in a fatality
Brilliant video mate
I felt like I was there! Nice work on filming the races!
Great reporting/video, thanks!
TY for the Excellent Videos
Fine work on the video man. Now i want to go see this..
These guys have years and years of experience, These birds were built for 19 and 20 year-olds with about 15 hours of trainer experience under their belts to go out and dog fight for their lives. Amazing how many lived to come home.
+BrownH2ORat No, AAF pilot cadets typically finished primary and advanced flight training with around 200-300 hours before transition training to fighters or multi-engine.
Very cool! Thanks for sharing!
I see that`s not only flighing, there a great frendship what I can see, amazing
Production value on these are insane, always amazing videos, love them so much and I don't even fly.
Thanks for noticing the work that goes into these higher production value episodes :)
