Last week, I flew with the Royal Air Force, the Red Arrows. 🇬🇧 Seven jets. Eight feet apart. 400 miles an hour. Every bit of it flown by hand. I was in the back seat of the lead jet for their full display, the first time I’ve ever done something like that so close to another aircraft. The team made the trip over from the UK to help celebrate America’s 250th birthday and are wrapping up an epic 6-week tour in the United States. Massive thank you the entire Red Arrows for the opportunity. 🇺🇸🇬🇧 Full episode coming later this year.

We just dropped the first episode of Access Granted, filmed in partnership with the Royal Air Force 🇬🇧. From sitting on the edge of the open ramp door, to blasting through the Mach Loop, to flying over the valleys of Scotland… this is easily one of the most surreal projects we’ve ever done. 🎬 Video link down below.

This is the U.S. Army's brand new helicopter. The Bravo variant of the UH-72 Lakota.

A few months ago, I had the opportunity to visit the California Air National Guard to learn about the incredible work they do fighting wildfires from the air. I wanted to share this reel not only to raise awareness about the heroic efforts of these men and women in uniform, but also to recognize the countless civilian air tanker crews and lead plane pilots who are risking their lives to help battle the fires in Los Angeles. In the past 48 hours, the California Air National Guard has been called in to support over 7,500 state and local firefighters and emergency personnel, with ground teams, helicopters, and C-130s on standby and ready to assist at a moment’s notice. 💪🏼

Five years ago, it started with a single upload. Today, our video series enters a new chapter. Introducing Access Granted, a rebrand of our documentary series, focused on opening doors and bringing viewers inside some of the most fascinating places in the world. Excited for what’s ahead. #AccessGranted 🔓

The U-2 Dragon Lady isn’t just an aircraft—it’s a Cold War relic still flying at the edge of space today. Pilots wear space suits. Landings require a chase car. And it still delivers intel better than satellites can (in certain situations). A machine frozen in time.

This was a wild experience. Tactical descent on a C-17 Globemaster. About 4x as steep as a commercial airliner. 🛬
