    Jay I think a lot of people forget, you must work for a awesome company, most companies won't let there employees film at work, just a big thanks to your boss, from everyone on here.

    Thank You, man! As an engineering student, it's beautiful, when the theory becomes something real and these information you gave are not so common. Thanks!

    Man your videos have helped me understand how the engines that I rely on every day work, far better than any training the USAF has given me!

    I had a lot of questions about how the exhaust nozzle works and what it actually does on fighter jets, I watched a lot of videos but this one made it all clear, especially after

    I can feel my brain growing while watching your videos!! I have never really understood the inner workings on turbine/jet engines and after watching your videos its all making sense! Thanks so much!

    This is the most informative explanation I have ever seen (not that the Wiki and other eLiterature I came across didn't help). It has confirmed to me that my impressions of how the exhaust nozzles work are correct (no misconceptions) Brilliant!

    As an A&P student in PowerPlant studies, AgentJayZ’s videos have been an extremely helpful resource! Thank you for caring enough about everyone to show everyone what you do!

    I have no engineering knowledge whatsoever, but I really thank you for sharing these videos and introducing the general public to your field. Very interesting.

    Everytime I watch your videos I can't help but think about how much time you must put into them (filming, going thru the film, editing, etc) ....All at the expense of the satisfaction of a few thousand viewers. You, Jay, are the epitome of a gearhead! Thanks so much Jay!
    Also, good news, your username appeared in youtube's search bar a few weeks ago, I think....hoping for an exponential increase in subscribers in the near future. Pretty soon you'll be making the front page of youtube! :)

    Thank you so much for this series of vids on Jet engines and Afterburners, Jay.
    I've always been fascinated with Jets, and love watching and hearing the big military jobbies (my fav is the F111).
    In principle, they are extremely simple things. In reality, the way all the parts function together is quite complex. As is the metallurgy involved to get them to survive the extreme conditions they operate under.
    I finally understand the workings or an afterburner - thanks to you.
    Top stuff, mate.
