Flew my 1800th performance today… as I finish my 34th season at NAS Jacksonville FL! That’s more than any other Jet Demo pilot in North American history…. I would like to thank my sponsors, my dedicated friends, family, and team. It truly takes a team, and I can’t do it without them, or all the wonderful fans I get to meet across North America each year…. Thank you all.

#TowerTuesday with Randy W. Ball! Flying the iconic MiG-17F #1611 and even the rare MiG-17PF, Randy’s made plenty of unforgettable tower passes over the last 35 years. At times, he’s even had some friends join in the fun, rounding the towers together. Precision. Power. History. That’s what FIGHTERJETS INC. brings to every show. #FighterJetsInc #RandyWBall #MiG17 #1611 #AirshowLife #TowerTuesday #goodyeartires #aiaduncan #airwisconsin #jets #warbirds #eaa #eaaairventure #icas | RANDY W.

🔥 A shot you almost never see! 🔥 You’re looking straight up the tailpipe of a MiG-17F as the pilot shifts it into Afterburner. First comes the spark. A second later, two nozzles fire toward the igniter, then the entire ring of fuel nozzles lights. The afterburner nozzle opens — and in an instant, 14 feet of flame roar out the tail as the jet thunders down the runway to kick off the Oshkosh night show. It all starts with this spark. ⚡️✈️🔥 #FIGHTERJETSINC #RandyWBall #MiG17 #NightAirshow #jets

Goshen... if you liked the post from outside the Jet... You might just like this view! The last pass is at 20’ and over 650mph! You can see the shock wave behind the canopy as I pass the wall of fire... I hope you like it! | RANDY W. BALL

First real video since Erin wired in a way for us to capture audio directly from the jet onto our video’s. I hope you being able to hear what I say, and what the Air Boss says makes the videos even more enjoyable! Watch it, share it, and please let me know if hearing what goes on while performing makes it better. This is Tina’s first video edit also!!! Lots of girl power made this happen….

MiG-17 #1611 — a peek into her off-season. Getting her ready for 2026 with the help of crew chief Sam and the hangar compadres. It isn’t just about flying the jets — it’s about maintaining them. Randy, Sam, and David — three A&Ps — making sure everything is done right. It takes a village to keep these jets flying strong. #FIGHTERJETSINC #MiG17 #warbirdmaintenance #Randywball | RANDY W. BALL

🔥 8G Minimum-Radius Turn 🔥 Listen to the roar of the MiG-17 #1611 and its afterburner lighting up the sky as Randy W. Ball pulls 8 G’s in a tight, minimum-radius turn. For more than two decades, he’s been the only jet performer to execute this extreme maneuver — precision, power, and control at their peak. #FIGHTERJETSINC #RandyWBall #MiG17 #1611 #AirshowLife #JetDemo #minimumradiusturn #goodyeartires #aiaduncan #eaaairventure #eaa #ICAS | RANDY W.
