F15C full alert launch all the way to take off very old vid that finally got uploaded many years later. Not technically perfect by any means but fast enough to keep them from fying into your building.
Really good stuff, there! Reminds me of the ICT's we had to do with the F-111's in the UK. Loved 'em! Working Victor Alert was sheer boredom, followed by pure adrenaline, sometimes. Nice job, man. Do it for as long as you can. You'll miss it when it's gone!
@buddness Australian friend of mighty USA here. Love your military you guys! Keep it up. Love the F-15!!!! Good to see the best of the best. There is a lot to do in that 3 minutes. Very good work!
World's best air force: Absolutely! Looks like you were clear chocks only 3 min 10 sec after APU start-up. For an Eagle, that's par... and outstanding!!! Flight restrictions be damned, fly the paint off!!!! I say to hell with what Congress wants. More C-17's, more -22's, another block extension for the -16's, more -15's, mod 10+ B-52's to "J" mod, address TriCare properly, drop this "second engine" crap for the -35, and develop the next bomber. Now!!!! Keep 'em flying!
Six minutes and 49 seconds to get the jet off the ground, and that is not from when the klaxon blows. When we had a Zulu commitment in Germany, we had our birds in the air in 5 minutes. Maybe some of the old "cold warriors" need to show the kids how it is done?
Tell the pilot to hurry the hell up. Maintainers are working their asses off, and he's still getting dressed. This actually surprised me quite a bit, very similar to Marine Corps hornet launches. Mad respect to everyone (even the pilot) in the video.
being a new F-15E crew chief that was pretty baller. cant wait until i have to start doing that shit. oh wait i never will because my unit doesnt deploy at nellis
