Drone Videos of Dallas-Fort Worth

Dallas, Texas, known as “The Big D,” is the center of the Dallas Ft. Worth Metroplex, one of the largest  metro areas in the United States. Thanks in part to recent investments in massive stadium complexes, Dallas-For Worth can lay credible claim to being the sports capital of the USA.  AirVuz produced this mini-documentary of the Dallas sports scene, which features aerial views of the impressive Dallas skyline as well as AT&T Stadium, Global Life Park, American Airlines Arena, and more.  

In this video, Texas-based drone pilot and AirVuz contributor Cumulus Imaging gives us a nice aerial view of downtown Dallas, Texas.  The Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area is the largest in the state, and consistently the fastest growing major metropolitan area in the USA.  The skyline of the city is extremely modern, dominated by several large skyscrapers in the core downtown area and the Reunion Tower (an observation tower distinguished by its massive globe-shaped top) on the outskirts.  

As a first upload to AirVuz, Octavio Velazquez Lozano brings us this excellent aerial tour of Dallas, Texas.  The video opens with a great shot of the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge, which spans the Trinity River, before heading over to the Reunion Tower - the ball-topped observation tower which is the most iconic site in the Big D.  The video also features some excellent bird's eye views of the green-striped Bank of America Plaza (the city's tallest skyscraper), AT&T Stadium in Arlington (home of the Dallas Cowboys), and more.  

Fort Worth is the "sister city" to Dallas, Texas; together, the two cities represent the core of the Dallas Metroplex, the largest metropolitan area in Texas and the fourth-largest in the United States (both as of 2018 estimates).  Historically tied to the cattle trade, Fort Worth is actually considerably older than its flashier "twin" city to the east.  In this drone video by Octavio Velazquez Lozano, you'll get a bird's eye view of the city, which was originally established as part of a chain of fortresses built shortly before the Civil War.  

This forty-second feature is pretty scary and very impressive. Shot by AirVuz contributor and pilot rickyflo_, you’ll see men climb then stand on “the clock tower,” a building in Dallas, Texas. The Dallas clock tower is a 35 meter tall (about 115 feet)  ornamental spire and local landmark in the city's downtown district. It’s part of the Mercantile National Bank Building, and has a clock on each side, hence the name. These daredevils climbed the tower and took a drone to prove their feat. 

Here are some great views from two iconic spots of Dallas, Texas, compliments of contributor 70daysaroundtheworld.  The first part of the video was filmed around the Cotton Bowl Stadium.  Built in 1930 on what was the Texas State Fair Grounds, the venue was the home of the Cotton Bowl Classic until 2010.  The second half of the video features nighttime drone footage of the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge.  Opened in 2012, it's a major element of the Trinity River Project to redevelop the area just west of downtown into an urban green space.  

Brand-new contributor and pilot Dewayne2690 brings us this excellent drone video from Dallas, Texas.  Starting at the :04 mark, there's a great shot of the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge over the Trinity River just west of downtown.  This is followed by a great view looking southwest through the city's skyscrapers towards Reunion Tower; the skyscraper on the left is Bank of America Plaza.  Completed in 1985, this 74 story tower stands 281 meters (921 ft.) and is the tallest building in Dallas as of 2020.  

Check out this drone video of Dallas, Texas under near-lockdown during the Covid-19 pandemic, compliments of contributor octavio velazquez lozano.  The video opens with a shot of the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge, followed by an aerial view of the iconic Reunion Tower.  At about the :45 mark there's a shot of one of the city's gigantic highway interchanges with perhaps 10-20% of its typical traffic.  Other highlights include AT&T Stadium in Arlington at the 1:10 mark, Dealy Plaza (2:00), the old red Courthouse building (3:10), and more.   

In this episode of Droning America, hostess Angie Avestruz heads to the Big D - Dallas, Texas.  She teams up with local TV sports news personality Kaime Stroot to show us the sights and sounds of the great city in northern Texas - by drone.   In addition to the Reunion Tower, the M Line Trolley, and the Deep Elum District (an important arts center), you'll get a bird's eye view of one of the most important spots in American history - Dealey Plaza, where President John F. Kennedy was assassinated on November 22nd, 1963.
