See Whataburger Field like never before from the cockpit of a T-45C in the diamond formation, during the 2024 Corpus Christi Hooks opening-day flyover. This was a lot of fun to fly and I was excited to capture the entire evolution from the brief to the landing. Let me know what you think in the comments.
Fly Navy!

Literally at the recruiting office right now (waiting on my appointment) watching this! This will be me in a few years.
Good luck! Marine Corps?
You're going to love it. Fly Navy!!
Wheres the queue? And is there a special one for a 49yr old non US citizen?
Good luck buddy! I hope you will become one!

I use to be a crew chief on a F-15 demo team. The crowd will never know all the hard work and the number of people it takes to make something like this happen.
For real... I buried my father (87) last year (US. Marine Aviator 1st and Army Aviator 2nd. Retired Army LTC.) I knowingly disobeyed my dads last orders to me to keep his funeral simple and short. I requested and He received a full military and a fly over (choppers as it was his main gig). I did not receive conformation of the fly over till that morning and when I did, I threw out all my plans and worked with the Captain in charge to have everything completed in 30 mins. Being former Army (Dad handed my my first orders to proceed to The 101st.. 13Bravo 155) I handled it with aplomb and managed to obey the keep it "Short" part. I sure miss him a lot!
Congrats to being on the demo team. They just don't take anyone. They didn't have them in my day with the F-4.
Pail, former film director here, history of aerial work. You're a natural born pilot AND editor. Nice work.
Thanks!
Damn dog. That right wing is tight. By far the best airplane driver there.
@@briangoss1493 Being "tight" doesn't make him the best.
I'm not American, but dangnabit Pail if that didn't get me all fired-up! "I'll take my pie with a big ol' dollop of freedom, thank you." FLY NAVY
Maybe as a follow-up episode you could tell us how the others got their call signs? And flew in your front seat?
Growler Jams just makes the day better.
💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
So cool of the military top brass to allow this absolute solid gold content to be published for public consumption!!
Holy Freaking Cow! That was spectacular!! Thanks for giving us a quick look at our favorite Jammer! I had to pause the video for a second to see you. What you guys do is so incredible. Thank you so much for your service to our country. Many blessings to you and your family! Edit: I'm not sure why, but I always get goosebumps whenever I watch one of your videos.
I love this channel. No fancy music or special effects. As an aerospace engineer, I love listening to all the specifics of how the aircrafts operates.
Bummer you can’t monetize this channel. You do a fantastic job explaining all the intricate details! Super entertaining!
That video put the growler jams in a whole new catagory! Over the top good! Absolutely spectacular not only for the fans but us too! Thank you Pail for sharing all this! Fly Navy!
Sound of Freedom!
I've wondered my whole life how its done. Thanks for the great demonstration!
Outstanding! Thanks Pail, et al!
That was amazing! What a privilege to feel we are in the jump seat. Incredible how you get the timing right with the delay, and zoop straight over perfectly!! Thank you so much, gave me goosebumps 👍🏼
Great video. Every time the Braves or Falcons have a flyover, sometimes staged out of Dobbins ARB, the Nextdoor message boards light up with “why were the military jets flying around?” Most are newer people who weren’t there when NAS Atlanta had Hornets or the ANG had Eagles or the Raptors were being made there. I miss those “sounds of freedom.”
Pail, where do I even begin, but this was amazing, I think one of the best Jams you have put up, just so exciting to be right in the jet with you all, I do miss flying so much but this was so awesome to hear and see what it takes to do a flyover, Thank you so much to everyone and their hard work and especially you "Pail" thank you......Polly!
Thanks, Polly!
Great team job 👏👏👏
The best fighter pilot channel hands down!
Thanks mate, I was a real treat to have you upload a fly by with USS Lexington CV-16 in the background only a few days shy the battle of the Coral Sea anniversary where USS Lexington CV-2 was lost. It was the skill and sacrifice of USN navy pilots that saved us in Australia that day back in 1942. It's not forgotten. Keep up the amazing work.
I have 1 word. AWESOME
That was awesome!! Pail, thank you for your service and for all the amazing content you put out. Fly Navy!!
Great video, Pail! Well done to you and your wingmen. Dad said you guys flew smartly, and he was very happy to see the Lexington make a cameo appearance, he did his qualifications aboard her in 1972. He said “I’m happy she’s in a safe place.” Thanks again Pail for making my old man’s day.
Cheers!
Pail, Favorite Jam so far. I predicted 'SERIOUS' epicness. I was wrong. I underestimated. Nice to finally see the front of your face, rather than the back of your helmet. Well done to all. Fly Navy.
Cheers! And Fly Navy.
Right on!!! Loving this!!! Signature move!!! 😎
Great job...goosebumps...Fly Navy!
Thank you! Great to see!!
Love the narration and this time it came from several vantage points! Fly Navy!
Wow wow. That's nuts! So impressive team work.
Such a tight level of coordination for "showing off". Reminds of Alexander's guys doing drills at Pelium! Our enemies will run from the hills too.
Great video, as always. Thanks, Pail!
As an Air Force ground pounder with field maintenance, I cannot express how proud I am of you and your videos. I subscribed with pleasure. High tides and following seas to you and yours.
I really enjoy this videos, this one was amazing! Fly navy!!
Yeaaaaaaa. LOVE LOVE LOVE your videos. And the feel that I’m in the backseat!!! Thank you,thank you,thank you! Keep them coming, p,ease.
Best Jam yet. Keep them coming!!!
You've outdone yourself again, amigo. A more complex story, full of twists and turns, last minute adjustments, timed to perfection and...all beautifully told. I take my hat off to you. Please keep up the good work.
Awesome video! I have often wondered how these worked. Thank you so much for sharing and thank you for your service.
That was totally Rad
That was a great video. When the content is AMAZING no need for extra fluff or drama. Love it.
As always, much love Go Navy
Thanks for this. This retired Marine has seen countless fly-overs, and has always wondered the myriad things that take place behind the scenes.
Very cool perspective and explanation! Thanks!
What a great video. So exciting. Thank you ❤ FLY NAVY
Thanks so much for sharing! So cool to see all the behind the scenes. It's funny to think that while people on the field are like "oop, we're a bit behind," you guys are doing a hard turn and burn to time it correctly 😂 (also no idea if that's the correct terminology but it does sound cool)
Pail shows his face! Awesome video.
Navy event and flying Marine aircraft....how exciting!
Fly Navy! Thanks Pail.
LOVE IT Pail! I really enjoy the flyovers at sporting events, especially the way that mostly local branches of the military are featured. I'm a big NASCAR fan, and have seen flyovers in person at Daytona and Fontana, but even on TV they are very impressive in their timing. "Little" jets or C5-As, they're always on time and on target. Now we know how. Thanks!
Loved the video Pail. I was Air Force, aircraft mechanic for 52 years.
TYFYS.
You're the best!! 💕💕💕
this is all so important. It keeps the mission high on everyone's minds. It brings in recruits and it translates to the battlefield.
That was about as cool as it gets THANK YOU
Great work, and thanks for sharing this was cool to see!
I think that’s the most informative video you’ve done yet. Excellent. Thank you from the Royal Air Force
Cheers!
I realize that times change and there is no stopping that but it hurts my heart to see civilians not military folks doing everything. Being a plane captain was attached to a specific aircraft ( mine was KA6D 523 VA-52) was an honor. Thanx for sharing
What a great group of young men, Thank you for your service! (and letting us in on some of what you do).
Awesome that you guys fly out of NAS Kingsville. I drive by there weekly see your planes in the air, even around Corpus off Saratoga .
Outstanding!!!!! Never thought about the complex timing involved. Well done
Good flyover great show thanks for doing it!😊
This is so bad ass !!! Thank you
Love your videos, made improved my flight in DCS---love from China!!!
Only bad thing about this is that officials at All levels need to approve lower flybys. Pilots are more than skilled enough and the reward for the tiny risk is exponentially huge. Great work by the team and ground crews!!! 👏 👏 👏
I know the audio was from the field, but I still got goosebumps when I heard the National Anthem watching you flyover. That was hot
Another excellent "FLY NAVY" production! Your calm but assertive voice reminds me of sitting in on the BLUE ANGELS airshow brief when I was an "Air Boss" for civilian air shows. The "BOSS" went through each rehearsed maneuver with that same kind of voice. It was comforting to listen to the cadence of the maneuvers spoken by the "BOSS," knowing that the same tone and cadence would be heard in each crafts radios. The performance they flew was perfect; as always.
dream job; hope to emmigrate to the states to be able to do it for real. Thanks for the killer content. Big up from Jamaica
That was really freakin cool! Thanks for sharing...
Awesome video! Well done, Gents!
AMAZING!!!!
Of all your fantastic videos this is 1 of the best! I never knew how much effort and coordination went into a fly by like this. Your new guy with the headband, without a name, I recommend, ‘Ninja’. How’s that sound? Anyway hope you guys had a great one at the game. Let me buy you all a beer….🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
Thank you for that. That was cool.
Great video. Loved it!!! So cool to see how those field flyovers are done.
Oh yeah!! Two of my favorite things in life..... Baseball and Jets!! Well done on the perfectly timed diamond formation!!
Very nicely done. Fly Navy!
Great video! I've done a few flyovers and every single one has been a timing nightmare. People don't realize how challenging it can be.
this was the best one you have ever done Pail ! Great in cockpit photography and narrative. super ! thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it.
Spectacular. Whenever you post, it makes my day. Thanks.
Amazing Work Brother!!
Now that was pure awesome boys!! Many thank you's and endless respect for what you guys and all your brothers in arms from all services do each and every day. Good vibes your way and prayers all around for all of you!! 😃🙏
OUTSTANDING! Love your style Pail! Keep it up!!
Accolades are not enough Pail for the effort you put into these Jams. Thank you so much and Fly Navy !!
One of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. Thank you Pail for your service and your dedication.
FLY NAVY!
As always thank you soo much for your videos, commentaries, and service. Outstanding. Please more as can be allowed.
Great Vid, thanks for sharing. Love the Goshawk. Have a large RC one we call the Lonestsr Hawk 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Outstanding!
One of the best vids I've watched today! It was great to see it from the Pilots perspective! Fly navy!
Top Jam! Love seeing the teamwork.
A masterful video. easily professional level, enhanced by that uniquely mellifluous Pail commentary. Now we know how such incredible split second timing is achieved. Keep 'em coming!
Just Great! More beers -
Fan - freakin' - tastic! You have outdone yourself, Pail...best jam of the year RIGHT HERE...
Awesome, loved the behind the scenes on how a flyover is done--timed to perfection! Thanks Pail!
Spectacular. Strong work.
AWESOME!! Born and raised in Corpus. My dad and a second uncle worked at NAS CC. Fond memories!!
Watch out Blue Angels ..that looked like a ton of fun and you all looked pretty pumped. Formation looked sweet as when you flew over. CONGRATULATIONS🎉, hope you get to do that again. Those jets sure are pretty. Well done ❤❤❤❤❤
one of the best from Pail. As a retired maintainer, nice to see the work needed to get the jet in the air. Also kinda sad not to sailors anyhere to be found on the ground, just contractors
I was wondering about that. The guys on the ground given their “appearance”, I figured they couldn’t be active duty military. So you’re saying they depend on civilian contractors to do this function for them?
Awesome guys. Driving to Corpus Christi to visit my brother soon. Enjoyed your video and hope to see more of you guys flying at the CC Naval Air Station soon. Thank you for your service! God Bless America.
Once again, great video Pail! Good stuff!!!
That was realy great/perfect. Thank you Pail!!
THAT, WAS, AWESOME!!!!!!! Your Jams just keep getting better and better every time. Smiling and grinning ear to ear the whole time. Absolutely incredible editing making viewers feel like they’re there. Signature Jam my friend. FLY NAVY!!!! 🤙🤙🤙
Sick, thanks for sharing
I always feel a lot of pride when I see you guys doing your jobs in such an excellent manner.
