    I like the crosswind landing video too. I didn't watch it this time, but saw one about five years ago.

    I've gotten a couple of those over the years; the first one with the F-16 is the Israelis; the low level KC-135 is the Turks. Only the turks would be crazy enough for that!

    Still cool to watch!

    my favorite is the F-16 with the external fuel tank that goes right over the guy...dude is lucky he wasn't just a bit lower or he wouldn't have a head!

    I tried pausing it, running it back and forth but the aircraft passes so quickly it doesn't give you the opportunity to look at it too close. I was going off the intake size and shape, and the high mount wings. Dunno.

    I got to see a P-51D do a full throttle pass right on the deck once, truly awesome!

    Man those were awesome! I've always wanted to fly. When my dad was still in service I was able to ride in an AH for a few hundred yards. (Still remember getting the DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING!!! speech from dad's friend. "This isn't some video game kid!" HAHAHA) Got to sit in a F-16 but never get to be taken up. What an experience that would be!!!
