What an age to be alive when we have access to quality footage such as this.
sounds like spy behavior 😅😅😅
EA guys have to be so happy that they aren't flying the Prowlers any more. No more 3g limit, no more worries about 4.5 bearing eating itself, no more 25 hour oil samples. No more holes in the heat shields around the engines being repaired over and over again. Their new jets have a HUD, and afterburners!
But lower range
Friends with a crew chief who retired when the last Prowler squadron transitioned at Cherry Point and can confirm. He called it a flying history museum. His relationship with the airplane went from love to love/hate some time after 2003.
It really was a blessing. I was part of the transition in 2013 but won’t deny that I will always have a soft spot in my heart for the EA6B
@1:38 chunky bass, and a ‘money maker’ carrier launch! 👍🏻
@@RsRj-qd2cg VMAQ-2 was decommissioned. There was no transition.
This is one of the best plane videos I've seen so far.... I could feel the energy, the rush of flying f18's!
GREAT WORK ! ✌️
Big time!
Thinking EXACTLY the same; the music/sound also correlated perfectly!
Hell YEAH
This is sick as hell! Mad props to whoever edited this, it's a great video.
I still can't stop watching this over and over the video edits are the best I've ever seen.
Wells said! Me too!
Moi aussi pareil
I work for a contractor, and I've had on-and-off involvement with the computers for the Super Hornets for almost my entire career. This gave me great joy to watch.
Saw son at 1:03-1:05 mark, made my day, FLY NAVY!
very very pog
get the hell out of here? seriously? damn, how cool is that?
Awesome
Congratulations, Sir.🙂
Is he a WSO?
Thank you, Dirty Jersey, for this perfect movie about the EA-18G and the F/A-18!
That was epic. Love the music. Love the Brisbane clips, love the dude perfect clips. Awesome video, thanks mate
Fantastic vid, guys. I'm so glad the Australian Air Force gets to fly these incredible birds. Not only that but any joint training we get with the US is brilliant. Keeping that brotherhood and alliance alive is awesome.
That shot flying down the river by the buildings - River Fire - Brisbane Australia. Best time of the year
i noticed Roma st Station at the start
so sick hey, brown snake action
So true
Best Ball video I've seen yet. Absolute masterclass.
Outstanding! Thanks for sharing this amazing feeling of how to be inside jetfighter cockpit.
Wow! The best aviation video I've seen. Numerous things I've never seen before. In cockpit camera during catapult launch, while showing another '18 launching off a different catapult. Way cool. The coolest. Congrats. MORE.
2:31 You could say they were 'Jamming' in the growler there ;)
I'll escort myself out of the building.
That's probably why the brevity term for jamming is 'music'.
Well HARMonics are important to both music theory and electronic attack. I don’t see why the gentleman has to leave.
@@DCrypt1 i think you should also leave the building with alexander.
Bruhhh
That was actually not that bad
When that Ace Combat music is popping off
Am I the only one ramdomly whistling the Blue monday soundtrack and thinking in Growlers along the day? well after watching i don't know how many times this video I can only say is awesome , the best I've ever seen, and I even seen the Zappers cruise video!! jajajajaj you have the top 2 in my rank mister, keep doing a great job!
As a former carrier sailor I smiled the whole time watching this video.
Aw man!! Goosebumps!! Great editing
Jeez all these clips are gold
This video was so well edited I had to watch it three times. Well done and awesome footage!
Wow! The best fighter sequence I've seen for a long time! Good work!! 😎
One of the best Hornet vids ever. Amazing footage.
Well done guys, proud to have you in our backyard!!
Great production. Thank you, it is well done.
Best video on TH-cam!!
Thank you sir
Excellent!!! Could watch that all day.
Whoever made this. Thank you for feeling my jet addiction
absolute TOP with great sound track!!! I'm loving it
Simply, OUTSTANDING !
THANK YOU. Beautiful photography and production. I wish we had a few more Growlers. Cheers from the Land of Oz. 24/08/2121
Looks killer. Glad y’all are having fun. Great song choice.
Still hard for me to believe this is what my son fly's in! He's the "Navigator" I have a picture of him waving at us doing touch and goes while we were watching him last year on Whidbey Island... Couple months ago he was doing touch and goes off of an aircraft carrier! Sooo PROUD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I used to buy disks of this kinda footage when I was little...only difference between this and the disks is they the disk had crappier footage and the edits weren’t nearly as good as these! Great job and thank you for your service!!!
I remember the documentary packs that had like 2-3 dvds
Sweet video! Love the soundtrack!
🇺🇸 and 🇦🇺 always together!
excellent work as usual
Whoever put this together is an absolute legend!!!
A friendly reminder to the rest of the world
totally
haven't seen my grandparents in yrs but thinking of flying across the country to show them some of these vids. retired pilot & flight attendant, they don't have internet ... they'd be absolutely psyched
One of the few things better than 2019.
That was so cool. Damn, one of the best vids I've seen.
Sick video DIRJ!
Love it man, editing and soundtrack was on point! Cheers from Aus
Tim Zads thanks dude! Your Rhino video is amazing!
Just found this video on youtube . Absolutely love the video! Cracking! Great choice of music! Keep up the great work! Bring on more vid 's! !👍
I love seeing the RAAF Riverfire displays incorporated in these videos. Sad that I haven't heard any news of a display this year due to COVID 19. Hopefully we'll see them again in 2021. Always get goosebumps.
This needs to be on loop in the USN recruiting offices. Amazing video!
just an old army grunt from the 80's ... this is just fantastic .. thanks
Awsome vid of such a formidable multirole kick ass fighter,
wow amazing , i think that's the longest i have held my breath for ,,,, videography and edit was spot on 👍👍👍 the pilots and locations were amazing 😎loved it
I grew up a half hour away from Whidbey and I loved seeing the growlers and Super Hornets I now live along one of there training paths and it’s awesome to see them ripping up and down the valley
Oh crap! What the hell? This just keeps getting better and better! Can’t not watch over and over!!! Growl on baby!
This is the best thing I’ve seen in ages! Missed my calling!
New footage & New Order ! Thanks.

Best ever Growler ball video
So good I had to watch it 3 times
I flew the legacy hornet and had fun landing on the carrier. I would give my life to fly one again.
You ever thought of giving DCS a go?
@@Rubberduckzillas who me?
@@MLOCharmer Nobody else replied here, so yeah.
You should definitely try DCS F/A-18C + Supercarrier modules...!
@@Rubberduckzillas That should clue you in to how silly your suggestion was...
Great job!! Top of the world in video edit
fantastic music choice
outstanding music selection 👌 👏 👍 🙌 🎶
My favorite. Love it!!
And what a badass cover of blue monday
I can't get enough of this!
Spectacular
I saw a great video. I will support better videos in the future. You are my new friend.
Growlers/Super Hornets are the most beautiful planes out there.
Change my mind
@ogre1074 No way!
Tomcat still sexier.
this is beautiful!
Really Great footage of the Super Hornets. Love the music selection also. New Order -- Blue Monday. ☠☠
Moje marzenie...niestety nierealne. Zostaje popatrzeć...❤❤❤
The New Order in the background is absolutely sick as hell.
Ah, yes another gem
Ugh, why am I flying the C-5.... this looks like a blast lol. Great video!
2:32 vibin like this in a fighter jet might be the best thing you could ever archive :D
You could say that they're jamming.
Hey, bro, you are awesome! Igor, Su-24m pilot from Russia. Wish you safe flights and clear sky, mate!
Su24m is sexy as fuck
Longer canopy makes the plane even more beautiful.
Brilliant
Nice work, Bro!.👍

Top video, and nice music....👍😎
Awesome!
