United States Air Force Academy Cadets experience with F-16 Fighter (2022) 

I was in the air national guard from 1980-1996 in New Mexico flew A-7corsairs and F-16s blocks 30-40 was an honor to serve my country and there is nothing like a 9.5g high speed turns 65yrs old now 🤔 but I would get back in that cockpit tomorrow Godbless

My old fighter squadron. Probably the same jets I worked on in 1994 when the 526 FS from Ramstein AB, Germany transformed into the 555th FS during Operation Deny Flight.

Viper instructor guy here , F-16A through C, Eagle as well. Neck injuries, upper cervical spine issues yes, whiplash, no. It's due to the load that we bear (G) based on the need to turn and fight the plane. The newer helmets JHMCS with targeting apparatus built in made the helmets heavier and in turn under high repetitive G while twisting and turning your neck can cause issues. Most all of us have been to the chiropractor at some point, and its not just the neck, Lumbar sacral (low back) takes a huge amount of load under high G with the whole upper body weight concentrated about the lumbar spine. Add to this the need to turn twist and pivot the head and torso under load and its compounded. But it's not an injury that is associated with the whiplash motion. Hope that helps.

Love the 555th... The Triple Nickles...built the Academy 1/32 F 16 model kit in their honor with their decals. They have quite a great history serving this country...

This video clip is all about showing an attractive cadet flying in the back seat of F-16 fighter jet in Italy.

So, way back when when I was a cadet in the Civil Air Patrol I was lucky enough to get chosen to attend one of the Summer programs. So I end up at an Air Force Base at the Guest House. Or military hotel. So there is this guy working the switch board. He is a USAF academy cadet. So we started to talk and I asked him why he is not doing all that glamor stuff they show in the school catalog or in the recruiting movies? He smiled and said, "It builds character...." I'll never forget it....

Excelente video. 👏👏

PROUD‼️‼️🇺🇸

I Love this Girl 🥰😍..Polish fan 🇵🇱👍👍

add hearing to detail true to the spirit as others I've seen.

I flew heavies in the USAF for 22 years, 17 of those in the KC-10…I have ZERO regrets about that and have had a few rides in -16’s and one in an F-15B… great airplanes, but a boring mission.. I saw every corner of the world while I flew tankers and loved every minute of it…

Well, that was a waste of 5'10". Would have liked to see her experiences during takeoff, flight, and landing.

Looking forward great 👍 flying

She’s beautiful ✈️

Cool!

Beautiful ❤️

I'm proud

Beautiful... O:

Other than the fingernails, on point.

Amazing

awesome

so cute of pilot

Our daughter (USAFA99) did an F-16 flight at Spangdahlem. I asked her how it was. Her response, "It was OK."

What a build up to a no ending in thisvid story.

Uuuu... Ez annyira cool! 🙌🙌😉🇺🇸

Well done young lady.

¡Muy buen video y felicitaciones a la joven piloto por su decisión de pertenecer a la fuerza aérea gracias!!👍😄

She has the look of concern throughout much of the video. I don't blame her. I would be a concerned about the situation too. Getting into a chair that has a rocket attached to it for the first time would be unsettling.

My Daughter is at West Point. They do similar cool things - for example she got to go 3 days without sleep setting up and defending fire bases in the field this week. I told her she should have gone Air Force....

i guess i wll have to be the child here and mention how cute she is lol.

She should have her hair braid tucked into the collar of her flight suit if they are going in the air; if they pull high-G maneuvers, that would be like being hit in the face with a stick or a whip if it starts to fly about. I suspect that once she graduates she will have to get it cut shorter, And her fingernails look longer than regulation too (when I was a cadet I was always getting in trouble for not shaving close enough - how times change!)

Cute!🥰

Wonder how many bags the cadet used. Hope she had a blast.

Q Gata!!!! Beuatiful Cat pilot!!

와우 멋있네요^^

It's a Dream

Wow! What a beautiful young lady...going to break a few hearts with those looks.

She looks very smart, focused, and professional. She is the real deal unlike whatever Captain Marvel was made out to be.

❤ ❤ ❤

From minutes 2:12 to 2:26 is classic. It's just like today when an adult tries to explain something to their millennial family. It's like talking with a jet engine running. You may as well just save your time!! Hilarious!! If I had a dime for the many times I had the same expression...

That aircraft is older that that woman.

She’s look pretty!

It's the Aviano AFB

Muito dos anjos soldado america Militar 😇🛡️👍🙏🇧🇷❤️🇺🇸🇺🇦♥️

Not everyone can, or else, would want to be either a Cadet or a Midshipman in The United States Military, Naval, Air Force, Coast Guard and Merchant Marine Academies, respectively in West Point, New York, Annapolis, Maryland, Colorado Springs, Colorado, New London , Connecticut, and Kings Point, New York. On the part and parcel of Times Archives, yet another Awesome Possum Military Video is featured for Our viewing pleasure and edification, featuring Future 2d LTs of the United States Air Force, some of which, may become Fixed Wing, Rotary Wing or Tilt- Rotor Aviators. AIM HIGH , AIR FORCE!!🇺🇸🦅🗽📜🛡️🗡️✈️

@0:36 - 0:41 - Long nails. Does it not get in the way of pushing buttons and working dials?

Beautiful woman.

Perfeita para ser a nora dos meus pais...rsrsrs

It's best that I don't commit on this one, it would go beyond RU-vid protocols .

Beautiful ! wonderful

น่ารักจัง

Anyone heard of a MAGTF?

Em breve os aviões não precisarão mais de pilotos será a Inteligência artificial

Nails are overly appropriate.

The lesson of this experience was? Trim your nails!

After pass fr academy she can fly the f 16

Air Force Academy Cadets with long painted fingernails. Hollywood style?

Pointless if we are not going to see them in flight.

Covered better? Meaning that brought wife in cockpit during flights and on missions? Much distractions than emotional attachment. Philosophical?

По-правде говоря, наших русских пилотов волнует лишь один вопрос: "У неё две мамы?"

Why are her hair and nails so long?

toughest job in the military

She is Beautiful

문화가 다르긴 정말 다르네 군인 팔뚝에 뭔 문신이 한가득이여

Lots of military aviation videos on RU-vid. Do they let guys fly anymore? It's hard to tell.

So what is this bizarre voice telling in 00:59 minutes ????????

여자전투기조종사가 미국에있다고??? 수송기만 조종한다고들었는데. 예전에 항공모함 관제탑을 2번 박아서. 여 전투기조종사 퇴출당함.

Why all the arm tats?? You look Navy.

🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦾🦾🦾F16

Gotta love the incels in the comments that have never talked to a woman before

Ah yes, the good ole cadet getting a ride. Meanwhile we had actual AF active duty Squadron members be told they would need to raise the titanic to get a ride. Horrible policies still in place I see.

This girl is sweet and real deal when it comes what a F-16 pilot lookslike, but this viedo was really boring
