493rd FS Reapers F-15Cs and D quick climb departures RAF Lakenheath

Post by sonicbenj » Sun Nov 14, 2021 10:16 am

We spent two fantastic days at RAF Lakenheath on the 4th and 5th November with the F-15s of the 48th Fighter Wing.

This video was shot on Friday 5th November and this is what we made the journey for. Gawd damn GATOR flight did not disappoint! This is x4 F-15Cs and a single F-15D from the 493rd Fighter Squadron (Reapers) performing quick climb departures and unrestricted climb.

You really get a sense of power from these jets performing this manoeuvre. They look absolutely in their element as they pitch up and climb out to a speck in the sky after only a few seconds. The power of the F-15 in all it's glory 😎
