What a fantastic sight & sounds from RAF LAKENHEATH, so brilliant having our cousins here from USA, always welcome on my part. With the RAF the USAF show huge flying skill & power, safeguarding the WEST. The USA tankers & surveillance from RAF MILDENHALL next door must not be forgotten working hard watching UKRAINE now & the RUSSIAN MENACE.

@cockneycharm3970 2 года назад

Regarding the Russian menace, RAF Lakenheath would be taken out. I live in Lakenheath near the end of the runway , and see the aircraft taking off.

Not if we get to them first...!

@matthewsims4457 2 года назад

@@cpn9401 If a first strike, they are all lined up. How long do you think it takes for a couple of Russian missiles to hit that flight line...vs physically moving them to the hardened hangars???

What about Biden and the threat to the rest of the world he poses. Springsteen once said 'Blind faith in your government will get you killed. He wasn't wrong was he?

Watched the first hour and threw up twice, so unsteady I turned it off. Get a better camera or cameraman.

@scoobysue1967 2 года назад

Brilliant to watch up close and personal after seeing Top Gun Maverick at lunch time! Definitely one to go and see. Mr Cruise is fab! 😃. Thanks RAF Lakenheath! 👍

@garyhubbard4799 2 года назад

Graduated from High School there in 1975. Was a dorm student as my dad was stationed at RAF Bentwaters. Those were the days of the F-4 Phantom. Loved watching them take off at night with their afterburners aglow. The dorms we lived in was at the east end of the runway.

@michaelellis9315 2 года назад

My dad was a British civilian mechanic with the 81st at woodbridge and then bentwaters. We used to love going to the airshows and watching phantoms and A10's

@Optikification Год назад

I was parked up next to the main runway at RAF Waddington waiting for a Phantom to make an emergency landing, he slid off the runway and got stuck in the grass and mud on the right of the runway and was fully armed so both Pilot/Nav ejected and the aircraft stopped about 100m from my Landrover.

I'm not going to skip one single piece of this video! That will be a first for me upon seeing a video over 3 hours long on youtube! This is amazing seeing the real top guns! Thank you big jet TV for the epic content & to those men & women keeping use all safe 👍🏿

@campcoldone4072 Год назад

BEST PILOTS ON GODS EARTH!!!Hell yeah!!

@rosemaryhricko7697 2 года назад

How amazing as always. We miss RAF Lakenheath. I sent this to my daughter, she went to school here and after school we’d always get caught on the runway, these guys used to taxi across the runway at exactly the time we’d be picking up my husband. Good memories 🙏

@mike7002 2 года назад

Fabulous to see these great aircraft preparing and taking off. The tangible build of noise around the 10m mark is superb.

@dalesharpy9197 2 года назад

USAF BRAT here from 1960-1975 and I was born on Tyndall AFB, FLA. The first 15 years of my life included the chance to be around the Convair F-106 Delta Dart, Pilots, Ready Room, and the Hangers. We had stints with the 318th FIS McChord AFB 1964-1970 and the 5th FIS Minot, North Dakota 1970-1973. Love this stuff! Hits home man! The Eagle replaced Dads Delta Dart back in the day. Cheers Mate from just NE of NAS Whidbey Island, Washington State.......Home of the EF-18 Growlers of the Pacific Fleet.

@bjmcguir 2 года назад

Surprised at the USAF giving you such a detailed showing and wonder if this is a little muscle flexing for the Russians? This is what we have sitting ready for you? Great show and thanks.

@asquare9316 2 года назад

probably, as an American I am extremely proud of these wonderful men and women. Thank you Jerry for bringing this to us. It's a credit to the growth of your channel that you were given this access. On another note, I wonder if there could ever be a special training exercise to drop some special stuff on a special operation somewhere?

@softballm1991 Год назад

Brings back memories of a 12 year old USAF depend living near on Lakenheath RAF.

@disco853 2 года назад

I was in High School at Lakenheath about that same time you were at Mildenhall. Saw the SR taxi and take off a few times at Mildenhall, so cool! The F-111’s would takeoff during my algebra class at Lakenheath, rocked the classroom, was even better! Take care man!

@paulholmes1303 2 года назад

Would have been nice to have had this same video capability when F-111F's were stationed there. The F-15's are loud with the GE F110 motors BUT you do not know noise until you've heard the whistle of the TF-30's taxiing and the grunty roar of the TF-30 in Zone 5 AB. The F-15E is, although a bit short legged, a fitting replacement for the Aardvark, unlike the F-35, less than half the range, half the payload and half the speed. It was also good to see the Heath again. Thanks!

@ejharrop1416 2 года назад

Great video. RAF Lake heath has a special place in my heart. Seeing the Sidewinders and Sparrows gives me a great deal of pride. I was a contractor mfr for many components on both. We were also SBA restricted prime on the Sidewinder fin many decades ago, that was especially cool. Thank you, cheers!

@zandvoort8616 Год назад

I was in the ATC and wanted to join the RAF in 1990, after my A Levels but my parents didn’t let me. I’m sure I would have had a successful career as an engineer/ ground crew. I attended annual camps in Honnington, not far from here, Bruggen in Germany and Church Fenton. Happy times.

@andyromanopropertydigitali1799 Год назад

its a good insight -

@rockradio928 2 года назад

I live 1 mile from departure end RWY 24 with clear view from garden and kitchen window. It can be fun. I'd say the most interesting and noisy are the multiple touch and go landings where they do U turns a few hundred feet above runway and go around again. Great to see it all happening on base. I never see what's happening when they are sitting on tarmac making that whining noise.

@mickboakes7023 2 года назад

All I can say is you lucky buggers. Now I know why I can’t miss Big Jet T.V . Absolutely brilliant. All the best. Mick

@C_C_SEA 2 года назад

Lovely stuff. A courtesy zoom-in on each aircraft's nose gear door/tail number ident would be helpful. 🤔Looked for the female WSO's flight (LN AF 97 218) take off/landing = no dice 🤷🏻‍♂...maybe next time. Go well🖖

@nickmail7604 2 года назад

They're alright, but I've just seen a Spitfire flying low right above me as I was walking my dogs, normally it's this lot from Lakenheath or the tankers and transports from Mildenhall or those Ospreys flying where I walk my dogs, but a Spitfire, nice and the noise wow! It sounds like a hundred of your favourite sports cars all revving in unison, not the racket this lot make.
