They looked more like a Jaguar than anything else to me, possibly French?

I'm not sure they are Jaguars. They look like Alpha Jets to me.

Brilliant,it must be exhilarating flying a jet that close to the ground as i would imagine the sense of speed is emphasized against still objects?

Jaguars, most likely in Oman and quite possibly flown by current or ex-RAF personnel.

I think it's Corsica (from the opening titles to the video).

Are they REALLY Jaguars - the wing span looks too big?

They are Alpha Jets, the large twin seat cockpit gives it away.

Thanks R988. Now, who do they belong to?

I thought they might be Luftwaffe originally but I guess they are Armee de l'Aire.

They could be Alpha Jets, but I thought it was a two seat Jag. I'm not so familiar with French training aircraft.

Whatever, at least we're better at identifying aircraft than this lot

Jags have very flat undersides, these are rounded

i rekon they're belgian , if you freeze it as the first one goes by, you can see the fin tip is painted dayglo.
the french ones seem to have the dayglo bit halfway down the fin., and i cant find a pic of a german one with dayglo on the fin.

edited to add....just saw vertis' entry, and there's a pic on his link.
