Cockpit view SA Jets, Hawks formation flight from Waterkloof AFB to Makhado AFB. 

Huge respect to you and the army. Thanks for the kind words🙏

I agree! Great to see them in action!

@@jadenwarne4003 go to an the AAD2024 airshow at Waterkloof in September and speak to the pilots. SAAF pilots are flying more than you'd think.

Yep the very sad truth!🇿🇦

Well not strictly true, I do think that maintenance on some of the lesser used bases has lapsed but the active ones look fine to me. And our fighters are definitely not from our grandfathers generation, unless your grandfather was born in the late 1990s or early 2000s? But never the less the conditions that our pilots have to deal with due to the lack of funding is unacceptable.

​​@@jaredkruger9750 Lack of funding more like theft of the Air Defence Budget. SAAF requires at least 80 Jas-39 Gripens, Air Refuellers, SAAB ERI OR Global Eye AWACS Aircraft, B.A.E Trainer Aircrafts, EAD MAKO low ground Attack Aircraft. One Aircraft carrier followed by dozens of Warships and 8 Diesel Electric Submarines. Damn borders require 3.5 meter fencing and a permanent SANDF, LAV, Patrol Vrchicles and Infantry.. presence...

must have really young grandparents

Baie mooi…well done.

@@pederkvevli2563 hi. You can do that. I dont know how to do that

@@StevenShulman ill do some googling and see if it's possible

Very sad indeed

Unfortunately i had to cut that part out of the video!😄 CAA regulations!

@@StevenShulman “click click “

I worked Poloks TWR for a view years. Have many videos of fly bys with Gripens, Hawks, Rooivalk, Oryx and even C130 13:08 “Contact TWR after landing… oops 😅”

@@djdann87 wow that must've been amazing to have seen that so close up! You should share those videos before it gets lost😁

Great question. Im sure its Nautical miles. Will ask Christo. But im sure its NM

Very sad. I think theres still these 3 thats airworthy.

@@StevenShulman and probably no qualified pilots

Glad you enjoyed it! Would like to find out about thunder city and would definitely like to visit if they still operate!😁 Great way to spend lotto money!😄😁🙏 id even spend my savings to fly in a airforce jet!😄 was lucky to sit in this hawk before the pilots took off

@@StevenShulman l wanna pull 10 g's and still say my mother's name🙂

@@marvinharms1891 🤣🤣 i flew in a harvard a few weeks ago. Pulled a few G's in a loop, and it was amazing! But also horrible. Cant explain😆

@@StevenShulman show off🤬😜

Wow a Harvard! You are really lucky.

It is in lighter/normal aircraft, as long as you pass your medical test. Not too sure about military

Best would be to go to your Nearest south african air force base and get more info there..

@@Real.Adonis go to an airshow and speak with the pilots. AAD2024 is coming up in September 2024. The Gripens from 2 Squadron and Hawk pilots will be there from Air Mobility Wing out of AFB Makado (85 combat flying school).

If i remember correctly 45min

45min

This is the BAE Hawk

@@gerhardvanderpoll7378 waars jou video? Het jy al moeite gedoen vir so iets? As ek dit gemaak het kan ek mos die video oplaai soos ek wil. As jy soos n volwasse persoon gecomment het, en gevra het vir die raw video, sou ek hom vir jou stuur of oplaai. Gerhardvanderpoepol

@@gerhardvanderpoll7378 weet jy ooit hoe klink die original? Heeltyd geraas, geen jet klank, net wind geraas, so baie vervelig. Dis hoekom musiek by is. Gaan maak jou eie
