It wasn't till you nosed over for the landing that I was catching "it's a goddamn RC model!" I'm all, "man, they sure must have relaxed the rules for low flights over the civvies. They couldn't do that here in the states!"

This video is quite a treat! I vacationed in the building right behind where you are standing. I really miss the sea wall and the beautiful views.

sicky sick! this thing looks like fun... i'm a fairly new pilot but this doesn't look too hard to fly around with. Any advice?

This isn't a beginner aircraft, but you're right, it's not too hard to fly for an experienced pilot. Keep in mind, it is a jet airframe.

Pretty cool. What kind of camera did you have on the plane? Make/Model/any other useful info? Please let me know. Thanks.

The camera is a FlyCamOne2 available from Hobby-Lobby, as is the F/A-18 I'm flying.
