wow, nice video... but that was NOT perfectly executed. I would consider that a close call and I've seen this done by the Blue Angels many times with there being more speed and altitude.
yeah as soon as he's out of that dirty roll he goes nose up and full burner, with the power those f404 engines have, theres no way hes going to hit the ground
Not by a long shot. That's No.5's standard dirty-roll takeoff. After the roll he's lost some speed and he loses quite a bit of altitude but nothing a little backstick wont compensate for before he breaks left.
That was nothing close to being a crash. You should have seen how close to the ground No.5 would get in the A-4's back in the day.
