One of the best in-cockpit films I've seen, and very recently filmed.
That amazing all glass cockpit canopy of the Viper makes this especially good and almost sim session like!

That is incredible. The F-16 even moves like a computer game.
On the wingtip a few hundred feet off the deck really makes me wince though. I'm sure the camera changes the perspective somewhat but still, it looks like the slightest error and he is toast.

Thanks for sharing that was awesome!

Truly incredible but looks so effortless. The height it gets too in such a short time is unreal.
