Airshows such as the one at Farnborough this week, are not just
about brand new commercial aircraft such as the
Airbus A380 or
Boeing 787 Dreamliner, there is normally a major military
component, both within the exhibitor halls, as well as in the
flying displays.
And while the Airbus A380 may attract and wow
the crowds because of its truly awe inspiring slow-speed skills,
it is the military jets that blow you away.
In this HD video of a demonstration flight, the
amazing F-18 Super Hornet fighter jet from Boeing, takes off in a
very short distance, roars through the skies above Farnborough
performing different moves, and then returns back to land. It is
hard not to be impressed by aircraft such as this, which travel at
such great speeds, and produce such a powerful sound that they
often manage to bring Airshows to a near standstill.
