Having fun and still saluting makes me so happy. To instill unity while still having individuality is what we all crave and desperately need. Never forgetting the salute almost makes me cry❤️
I couldn't tell you how many times I had to stop taxing out and laugh so damn hard, all our service members on the flight line were amazing people....Thank you for all your hard work to keep us flying !
From what I understand, its really the crew chiefs air craft. They just loan it to the pilots for a bit...Any-way's its good to see the ground crew getting to have a bit of fun in a dangerous area like air ports and air craft carriers. I hope you all keep safe to all the folks that keep America safe.
I was a plane captain (equivalent to air force crew chief)in the early 70's. While I love thus stuff had I done that my pilot would have thrown me overboard 😅
And who said white guys don't have rhythm? Seriously these ground crews have all my respect for the hours they put in to get these birds in the air with an excellent saftey record.
LoL My dad (retired AF), would tell funny stories of marshallers having a good time He said Their antics would actually help take off some of the pressure if it was going to be a stressful flight I can tell he misses those days, but he still runs into some of his old buddies at the base commissary and BX! =D I'm a proud Air Force brat
they incorporate the actual signals into the dance. they keep everything irrelevant tight to their bodies, so it doesn't draw too much attention. They know what they are doing, for the most part, and the pilots know what they are looking for.
I used to marshal the B-52’s out on the flight line back in the mid 80’s. If or sergeant or one of the officer pilots saw us acting that way, they would have stopped the plane and recommended a bullet to the brain. Lol. I wish we could have done this back then. What fun and a great way to keep moral up while taking the edge off and enjoying your job. God bless our troops and snipers. Task Force Guy - over n out
regardless of what the ground crew does, what i absolutely loved is that the crew still has so much respect for the pilots and salutes every single one pre launch. Mad respect, gotta love the airforce
that's it, do whatever the fuck you want; but pop that (sharp) salute to the men taking your aircraft into battle,. RESPECT! Your sweaty, (sometimes unappreciated) hours on the ramp don't mean shit unless those young men in the cockpit do their jobs..(USAF ret E-7...).
@@hannibalkellner8604 Pilot should love seeing the crew chief happy. That mean's every thing should go right with the flight.... Gotta love the team work they all have.
Especially in a combat zone. Buffoonery is a pressure valve and I'm quite certain if the chief saw anything amiss, he can get serious in a hurry. Regardless, he's doing his job and making the burdens of his and the pilot's job a little less stressful. Now, a dumb off-topic question for the aviation vets: how come US aircraft no longer have static pitot tubes on their noses?
63babaganoosh can you clarify which planes? The F35 has a pitot system but it's just really hard to see if you're not explicitly looking for it. Its not mounted directly on the tip of the nose, and this was likely done to reduce its radar signature.
I could watch these videos all day!!!! Love and support our military... It's so great to see these guys doing whatever it takes to send our pilots off with a smile on their faces🤗🇱🇷😎
chandler pegg NO REALLY SHERLOCK? I am American and take any opportunity to praise/support our military. Since they have the most dangerous job in the world, they deserve a good send off!!!
Nice to know as a retired Army LTC, that I can now be forgiven for some of the silly, stupid stuff I did as a commissioned officer. Nice to know, finally, that I'm not alone.
Shelly Robinson - give these guys credit! Do you really think they're not capable? They're just having some fun! The best clips are from the RAF. The best in the world!
I was a Air Force Security Police Sargent 1978 to 1983 . I guarded Missles , Fighters and Bombers and watched the Flight crews do all kinds of hilarious shit !
I wonder how these guys can do this without getting in trouble. However, I can see why. What the pilots do is serious. Something that will put them at ease before they do some serious stuff. Like that weird family member that always makes you laugh
Last Chance I remember there was this russian military video of a Russian T-90 tank swinging its cannon around knocking of russian soldiers off the tank lol
You must be a vet/related to a vet, cuz I was thinking the SAME thing, imagining showing this to inusrgent or Soviet officers, and saying, "This is why we're better than you. We don't think like you. If we're seeing E-4s on the ground busting moves like this, what TF chance are you going to have to predict our creative problem solving in the air?"
Hahahahahaha..I loved it very funny..I pray for you guys each and every night..THANK YOU for giving the safety blanket we sleep in each and every night.
Think about this screwed up English language, you can never run you over, unless you can pick up physically pick up someone, but if you are driving somewhere, for instance, and a squirrel gets in the road and you are in a car, you hit the squirrel, did the tire run over the squirrel, or did me over run the squirrel? It’s stupid to think of this, we have run over things since the days of Roman empires.. can you imagine Santa trying to run down his list or running me over the list? No wonder the children in this day are screwed up.
As a civilian, I was given a ride in an F-16D (Block 50) out of Shaw AFB, Sumter SC, with the 79th FS, tail number 91-468, and there she is in all her resplendent glory, at the 40 second mark. Go USAF!
When you sign your name to an airframe ,you send a crew to what you put all of your effort into making it safe ,I respect their send offs ,always a salute, then there are senators voting to deny Healthcare, to those that have bled sweated died ,so a trip to cacun to flee the cold Texas winter ,try minot in January, no fleeing ,this is your republican party ,fist bump?
LMAO I love this they deserve to goof around once in a while we got to think they put their life online for us thank you for your service in keeping our country safe stay safe out there and may God bless😊❤
@@kemonosworld4773 We have fun in the Air Force. Granted this is not a normal day. Depends on the commander, if it's a deployment, ( deployments tend to break norms to help the monotony) or a special moral day. Trust me, the Air Force is no joke, but you can have fun no matter what the stress.
Crew Chiefs! Been in for 4 years and every launch always has different moves, and yes it is an awesome job! A-10s Baby! If yall dont know what the A-10 is look it up, BADASS...Army, Marines, your welcome.
No there still in we been fighting like hell to keep them tho, the F-35 is supposed/going to replace them but they are so far behind production that there still being use. It's the only aircraft build around a gun, 30mm GAU 8, from tip of the gun barrel to the ammo drum is 21 feet long, the barrels are 8 feet long and there 7 of them, Its BADASS!
DIESEL1871 I live by Davis Monthan A.F.B. in Arizona so the A-10 is like a warm reminder of home. A very, very dangerous and beautiful reminder of home. And I'm to the point where I can call out whether a warthog or F-16 is over head just by the sound the engines make. I can't wait to join the Air force! I love planes!
These❤️❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰🥰 guys are good , as well as being whacky fun they are some of our bravest ! All credit and respect ! And you are killing those moves ! Awesome
I love all of you buddy! Cool! So depressed when I watching lots of protests n policemen got serious injuried in hk everyday here.. happy found this video let me relax n hv a happy smile again! How I want to live in U.S. love all yr citizen!
OMG - my dad used to tell me funny stories of the ground crews antics! Those guys would do some crazy stuff from doing the worm, break dancing - even twerking! Hilarious! Air Force FTW!
A pilot friend of mine posted this video. My Hubby was a "Plane Captain" back in the late 70s. He said that it would have been fun to be able to do this.
Maybe if you'd cast away your blind patriotism and do some research, they you'd understand that Russia isn't in Ukraine, it's Ukrainian rebels that want to be part of Russia. And exactly why shouldn't Russia be in the Baltic if America is snooping around there
