F-16 Thunderbirds Directly Fly Over our Boat at 200 ft. off the Deck! Turn up the sound and check it out! At an airshow in Ft . Lauderdale , Florida.. Because we were in a boat we were able to get inside the flight box and directly beneath a couple of fly overs. Sorry about the camera shake, but we are in a boat on choppy seas. The Thunderbird demonstration team is the Air Force equivalent to the Navy / Marine Corp. F-18 Hornet demonstration team, the Blue Angels.
You guys are dead center in flight box.. both fly overs have no smoke until they are over the top of you.. then the smoke kicks in.. they fly those patterns well away from the crowds out over the ocean, for safety reasons and you guys got right up in it.. and you don't even hear them until they are on top of you.. very few people get that close.. most see this from a half a mile away.. great job

By froggerg 1176114492 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveThat was great but it's even better in person. Evry American should visit an military airshow at some pont in their life. You get a great show and new appreciation how incredible our military is and how hard they work.
America is a great nation isn't it?
I work hard. Then I pay my taxes. These taxes go to the Pentagon, which in turn gives the money over to Lockheed Martin.
Lockheed Martin then pays their executives huge salaries. These execs then buy memberships at the Bethesda Country Club. Then they play golf.
The guys in this clip are just helping to waste my money.
Sir, these airforce pilots were active duty milityary years before they became the Thunderbird demonstration team. Our military and the effort they expend with their lives allow you to work and pay taxes. They put their life on the line to defend this nation, have you done that lately.
Hug a military member today and be proud of their service to our country.
Without them, we'd be speaking German today.
You don't really believe that the Pentagon exists to protect us, do you? Defend us? Are you for real?
The Pentagon is an instrument of our foreign policy. It's about empire, son. Not freedom. The people who "serve" the pentagon are fools. It's a volunteer military so it's all their own fault. Nobody made them do it, did they?
Your childish notions about the purpose of the US military are kind of cute... it's like staring at a Norman Rockwell painting.
Please name for me one country we've conquered or invaded militarily that we didn't first set it free from a tyrant and then leave the country better than before.
Name one, I dare ya.
Logic does not compute with these people.

By detourspro 1176175073 Reply Spam [+1] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveYou had a great spot there. Good job with the cam also, It can be difficult especially zooming on aircraft moving at that speed.
Thanks for the the cool video.
have been brilliant but u zoomed in too close (why use choppy seas as an excuse for not being able to hold and operate a cam very well?)overall good try i love jets and hope u have another go at it the next chance u get. dont know much but zooming out just a bit will give a much better feel to the high speeds these guys can get up to and you wont have the extremely hard job of keeping up with a high speed object.youve got great looking weather you lucky bugger.

By asaslight 1176198861 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removeyes F-16 Falcons... notice the paint job when they fly directly overhead... they are the F-16 Thunderbird Team... just like the Navy/Marine F-18 Hornet Aerobatic Team is called the 'Blue Angels'

By Rodrigo332 1176159382 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveMy tax dollars being burned to help recruit new suckers to serve in wars fought on foreign lands, fought for bogus reasons.
5 stars!
You still believe that the USA is the best country of the world ??? Has the best Military ??? Get alive over there ! You don´t fight for your freedom... Were is the danger threating the USA ??? THOUSAND MILES AWAY!!!! And if the goverment of the USA didnt act like small kiddies, they wont cause the anger of the islamic countries. YOU ARE NOT THE BEST NATION! ACCORDING TO THE COMMENT:"WE ALL WOULD SPEAK GERMAN NOW" STFU, now we have to speak fucking English. BTW WW2 is History, Germans made all great inventions, the Americans just stole them, and they claim themself now Ruler of the World !!!
PEACE!!!
That is our language here. In fact, the USA should require ALL to pass a written english exam before being allowed to live in the best country in the world.
