this is how an air show should be videod without the music just the sound
of the engines and a perfect display of a good aircraft 5****** to the pilot
and the camerman well done
Probably the best F-18 demo around.
When I was in the U. S. A. F. in the 70's, the F-4 Phantom was my favorite and always will be. Saw the Thunderbirds back then. Later, the Blue Angels in Grand Prairie, Tx. Loved every minute. Now favorite is FA-18 Hornet. Gotta-Love-It. Simply Amazing. Pilots of these birds are the luckiest people on the planet; and hardest working. Thanks to the pilots of these great birds, America is the best in the world.
This Fighter Jet moves like the F-22 RAPTOR. GO F-18 SUPER HORNET.
Beautiful plane....amazing pilot!
havent watched a hornet dance in two decades. wasnt really impressed when she was new. superhornet has some sweet moves and is most impressive. thanks for this quality share.
Thanks for the appreciation.
Still my favorite bird of all time. And you sir, did an amazing job with the camera. Well done. Thank you for such great footage of the old gal.
Immaculate Display By The F - 18 Super Hornet !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow. I just saw the F-18 vid and it moves so smooth and tight. Now I find the latest vid on the Super Hornet it's even MORE smooth, nimble and clean tighter turns. Agility & Power with no Thrust Vector. One Word: AWESOME.
My son and
I saw this display last year...I am amazed from the comments that this thing doesn't have thrust vectoring as I assumed from the incredible way it moves it must have...a truly amazing piece of engineering and knocks spots off the eurofighter given what i know now..
I'm starting to work on these for a living in 4 days. I cant wait!! So excited!!
speed of recovery - pure awesome
Check out the strake vortices at 2:30. Frikkin awesome :) can't wait to see the f35 demo'd.
+Jack Lokstrom You're not the only one believe me - if it ever makes it over here by the year 2050!
+airshowvision
Looks like this year is it!!
There are very people able to extract the very best of such airplane! Mr Traven is one of these! This demo is just breathtaking!
Thank you so much for sharing your amazing vid!
Cheers
Hah! Thrust vectoring is for sissy's! This guy obviously doesn't need it. That was a truly amazing display of what a Super Bug can do in the hands of a phenomenal pilot. Well done, Sir!
Best demo yet. The Flankers are going to have a tough time fighting the Super Hornet in the air.
This is indeed good evolution of a great plane design.
Thanks again. The weather must have inspired me.
Awesome video and amazing display from Ricardo and Rhino!
somebody please feed this pilot some SU-27's !!
+groovANDsooth SU 27, is a JOKE.
Ricardo Traven, by the way, is an ex-Royal Canadian Air Force F-18 pilot who now is the chief test pilot at Boeing for the Advanced Super Hornet.
He deserves it!!! Was he the pilot at RIAT and Farnborough this year coz the display murdered the Raptor display
+airshowvision
Canadian pride here ( insert grin here )
@@airshowvision Ues he was! I know him well from Avalon!!
Hello dears,
your channel is like a awesome goldmine - digging for founding all that nuggets is an adventure for airplane enthusiasts
T H A N K YOU !!! !!!
Big Thumb Up and Great movie shoot......Love the show. Can't wait to see the next episode :-)
will the show come to australia again ?
i love to see it again badly !!!!!!
Probably the most impressive air demo i've ever seen. He had that thing looking like a f-22... or at least a Su-35 ;-)
Excellent camera work!
I've got so much love for you birdy
I can't believe that isn't a thrust vectoring aircraft. I didn't know the Hornet was that maneuverable.
***** true
David Smith Unfortunately in a combat scenario with a full payload, it is extremely less maneuverable.
***** Yea, my point was that in a realistic scenario a F-18 is hardly ever this maneuverable. Mainly because of the payload, but like you said it could be jettisoned. But it would still have the pylons, which are actually angles outwards at like 13 degrees I believe, which makes the jet extremely less aerodynamic. And finally in these demonstrations the planes have a fraction of the fuel they would have and need in a combat environment.
***** It really is. And that is even if we ever get into Air - Air combat again. Because really the only people that would be able to compete with us (enemy wise) would be China and Russia. And although it looks now like there is a lot of tension I highly doubt we will be having air campaigns like in WWII.
***** That isn't fool proof. In Red Flag exercises there are plenty of cases where fighters can not get a radar lock on a F22 when they are within visual range.
Awesome aircraft
It's pretty neat how he does a carrier style landing. (Steep and full thrust on touchdown)
Nice vid!!! Bad ass hornet demo!!
its to perform its high AoA maneuvers. The limiters on the Super Hornet doesn't have any restrictions, as far as a expert on Super Hornets. The AoA limiters doesn't have any restrictions, it's an unlimited AoA for the Super Hornet. Also yes it is a performer just like the Sukhoi aircraft, but without TVC's which is amazing.
I get to see an F/A-18E demo tomorrow and the day after. It's gonna be sick!!
Ricardo trav an is the chief f-18 test pilot hence what he can get that thing doing!he was awesome at fairford the same year too!and he likes making noise which I love!
Now that's an outstanding aircraft. I had the chance to get up close to one and touch it, its better than petting the cutest puppy on Earth.
The most impressive naval aircraft.... Damn look at that high manoeuvrable machine.. Super Hornet must be the most manoeuvrable naval fighter in service...
Bad-ass! Nice camera work (and piloting).
good photography
camera!!NICE!! well done dude
Hell of a fighter. Top notch. Imagine vectoring on this design? Too bad there is no youtube videos showing what an f-22 can truly do. You would be amazed.
The best engine sound ever. 👂👂👂👈
x iLLzYaz x eLijAH ive been saying this for years as well!!
You can't beat the sound of those 414s! Gold Gold!!
these wing glove vortecies ; what a treat
Out of all fighters, I must say, the F-18F Super Hornet is the most beautiful and sexiest looking of all. I like the Su-30 family very much, but there's something about this bird that looks menacing more so than the swan, elegant appearance of the Sukhois. The smaller size is also more appealing. I've loved the MiG-21 and IMO is the second most beautiful fighter ever built right after this one, followed by the Mirage delta series. MiG-29, F-16, F-15 all outstanding but this one here...
IMPRESSIVE.
Great plane, great pilot !!
Badass. Those look like real missiles.....
I say, jolly good show. Jolly good indeed.
Beautiful jet fighter
Good luck this year Boeing at Farnborough Airshow soon!
this performance proves that tvn are not a necessary component for maneuverability. very impressive. In a dogfight a jet must b maneuverable enough to b able to use its machine gun, if it comes to that.
love it!!!
I went there in 2009 and there are 3 vids on my channel from that show. Due to poor viewing possibilities I haven't been back
It's the Boeing F/A-18 Super Hornet. The McDonnell Douglas corporation already was defunct by 1997. So now the product is now on the hands of Boeing Defense. But it's still the airframe designed from McDonnell.
Absolutely Super Hornets a good Air-to-Air fighter! Look at that very good dogfighter and Super Hornets a good match for the Sukhoi aircraft etc.
Impressive!
Awesome display. Too bad that we won't be able to see aerial display s like this, this year.
Хороший самолет!Хорошее видео!
Awesome things!
i wonder what it would sound like in valley mountains etc
were there was an echo the sound this aircraft is enough
to make you do an hasty retreat what a machine
Long live awesome American tech.America builds the best war machines In the world.God bless USA
Impressive display of the Super Hornet performing its high AOA maneuvers and how good it can preform in slow speed WVR dogfight. Compared to the American version of the demo I think it's worse to demonstrate the Hornets in the USA. I prefer this kind of demo but you don't see this often in US shows.
Impressive plane,would be a dream to go for a ride in one!!
The best do everything fighter in the world period. For the money it is a bargain as far as fighters go and incredibly easy to maintain and support.
Fantastic
cool vortices off of the root extensions. i want one.
airshowvision uploads the best airshow videos ever! Keep up the work airshowvision, by any chance have you uploaded vids from the Paris Airshow?
I did manage to see it. It was cheesy and great at the same time. You know the Super Hornet and SU-35 are actually competitive against each other in WVR and BVR. I'd like to see the Super Hornet vs SU-35 in a real fight. That will be a crow pleasing moment.
This was indeed an industry display provided by Boeing themselves, using their chief test pilot.
The F-18 does what alot of TV planes do, shame the Navy never went to the nasa designed ThrustVector system. If you ever get to watch the vids of it, its amazing what an F-18 can do with it.
The Eurofighter perhaps yes. The MiG 29 is most famous for being shot down by F-15's. It has a negative kill/loss ratio and its the plane it has shot down the most is the civilian cesna.
Super hornet... Rides like the lightning and roars like the thunder!
It does not have thrust vectoring but indeed large control surfaces and powerfull engines in a narrow body
F-22 has better thrust to weight and has thrust vectoring over the E/F, but the E/F still wins in the visual arena (almost) every time because of the combination of JHMCS and AIM-9X. Last I heard the F-22 HMD was cancelled/delayed.
WOWWWWWWW Thanks :o)
Uauuuuuuuu!!! Esse é o cara!
Jet noise. THE SOUND OF FREEDOM!!!
My god, this isn't even near the original design, it's manuervability is stunning.
It's the McDonnell Douglas F-18 Super Hornet! The Dataplate still say McDonnell Douglas
I personally think hat it could be a valid fighter, with that sort of maneuverability. Sure, it's big, bulky...doesn't look that nice from all angles. But man, the thing is actually pretty fun looking to fly!
I would want it if I were going into the navy.
Thank God they weren't playing some lame music..the engines sounds great. Great vid and thanks for posting.
Better pilot= will win every single engagment.
Just wanted to know if anyone else saw the display by the new su-35 at Paris this year and your thoughts on it. From what i saw of it, and other documentary's i've seen, it looks as though Sukhoi have finally got thier act together. Especially with the upgraded avionics and radar. If it ever went head to head with the Super Hornet, that is one battle i would love to see.
We use these all day where im from.....
I haven't seen it yet, but I hope it will come to Farnborough next year . . .?
I agree with you 100%
Impressive

It probably is not a limit of the airframe that is given to Australia. The planes have a G-limiter programmed into the flight computer. I assume this value can be adjusted by whoever owns the aircraft.
i recall reading that for all thrust-vectoring delivers, it's not economically efficient to maintain for USAF standards - F-22 notwithstanding.
Sukhoi type stuff... Nice by American aircraft. I like this vid.
Grande maquina
I agree I do not understand why they feel we need to hear loud rock or "urban" music blaring at us. In the 70s they used to just tell you what maneuvers the pilot was doing & such.
there a great pilots then there is this guy crazy good
god that thing took-off quickly!
The Best
Yes. you are probably right. It just seemed a little weird to me that the RAAF which uses the Hawk as it's fast jet trainer for those pilots going on to fly the super hornet has no such limitations put on it. Then again i guess the RAAF needs to know that a new pilot can handle extreme G forces before putting thier bums in the RAAF's front line fighter.
I was there
its also due to aust not having the budget to repair and replace the airframes like the us does. with these super hornets for every hour in the air is 3 on the ground and the more Gs they pull the more maintenance they need and the less service flight hours they can fly. we should of purchased su27/30s or mig30 with thrust vectoring.
To quote a certain retired rear admiral -- yep, a snappy little airshow performer, but it isn't a Tomcat...
With the speed brakes over the intakes on the Super Hornet, are they blocked at all when the faspaks are installed on top of the aircraft?
