Outstanding! Carry on...ducti amore patriae

I remember seeing the first F-22 display East of the Mississippi at the Sun 'n Fun Fly-in some years ago. The F-15 Demo Team did their entire routine while the F-22 hovered at like 2, 000-3, 000ft.

AIRBOYD Great cockpit camera work. Are you able to comment on how the camera angles are moved around? If it isn't by that busy pilot, is it being being done remotely from the ground? For a number of videos, during recent months, I had noticed similar camera work in the Blues and the Thunderbirds, cockpit views, as opposed to using 360 cameras. Thank you and keep the vids coming.

They should change the name from "Unrestricted Vertical Climb" to "Operation Butt Pucker" or "OPERATION -AMERICA F**K YEAH"

It's not a vto if he used the horizontal runway space

[ImpendingJoker]

Not a vertical take-off but a max performance take-off. Learn the difference.

[Mr.meogii]

It’s cool but not max probably not even close

[superskullmaster]

Nothing “Max” about that. Max would be a 600kt entry speed into a 4.5g climb to 35, 000ft. This was maybe 350kts into a tiny 6, 000ft climb.

Why ruin a cool video with stupid music. SMH.
