I've encoutered one of those low level flights last year in Norway. I was on the top of a mountain somewhere between Laerdal and Aurland, when I heard a humming noise. Imagine how the jet engine sounds with all those sound waves bouncing off the mountains. And then, for the first time in my life, I had to LOOK DOWN to watch an F-16 flyby. Amazing experience.

+WanderfalkeAT Retired US Navy here. Truthfully my heart is with US Navy aviation, BUT ANY pilot and or plane that can pull THIS off and make it look easy, (note at times Pilot in red suit seemingly relaxing ... going 300-400 through those mountains and valleys) has my vote as Badass of the Planet. Stunning camera work. Watch his wing-man following behind him in the mountain passes. WOW

xxvavyguy445 Yes, but I guess the F-16 is predestined to Keep your Lead in sight (Canopy has no Frame). But you are right - Doing that at Low Level especially at this speed is as hard as f***!

a ride in the F-16 is the greatest thing ever! while i was stationed at Luke AFB, Az. i was given the chance to go up and do a fly by for a nascar race. we did a max climb to 18000 ft, then did a few "G" checks, then we broke the sound barrier, and to top it off we pulled a total of 8.3 g's! man it was so fun. My pilot let me have control of the jet for about 20 minutes or so! nothing i have ever done in my life compares to that!

Norway. Probably from Ørlandet base (location derived from the fact that @4:09 the pilot says "We're passing Eikesdalen", in norwegian obviously, which is only a short flight from that base - additionally the dialect gives away that the pilot himself is actually raised somewhere not too far away from the Trondheimish area).

Even in trainers we fly that low, so the F-16 is definitely capable. You don't design aircraft to fly low, it's inherent to their ability to fly at all... And a lot of this isn't sped up, that's what 500 knots looks like low!

Actually the Raptor is coming in to replace the F-15C as an air superiority fighter. Thats all its supposed to do, so fa, is be an air superiority fighter (the F-22). The F-16 is capable of ground attack as well, unlike the F-22. The F-15s, F-16s, and F-18s are all starting to be replaced by the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter in the near future.
