2008 NAS Oceana Airshow - CF-18 Hornet Demonstration

CF-18 Hornet Demonstration

2008 NAS Oceana Airshow
NAS Oceana, Virginia
Saturday September 20, 2008

IN THIS VIDEO, watch as Captain William "Billy" Mitchell flies the flat show routine of the CF-18 Hornet demonstration. Even with this flat show, you can still see a lot of vapor streaming off the CF-18. I apologize for the poor video quality, as I was trying my best to get the best video under VERY WINDY conditions, which persisted through Saturday night.

Like what you've seen? Well, if you are interested in purchasing DVDs of specific aircraft and/or of airshows, interested in anything and everything related to airshows (where the jet teams will show up, all airshow performers, airshow reports from airshows I have attended, previews of airshows I will be attending, etc.), a much more easier to navigate "version" of all of my videos, and/or everything there is related to aviation - including spotting guides to my favorite airports and military bases and aircraft factfiles, please take time to check out Steve's Airshow World at http://www.stevesairshow.com .

@IR0NMAIDEN12 the CF-18 team does tour's all over North America, just as we get to see American displays in Canadian air shows.

NO WAY! This is friday nights demo billy mitchell did, His sunday show kicked this shows ass, it was too windy friday night too do what he did sunday, everyone thinks the sunday demo was the best DEMO of the whole airshow. The loaded rolls he did sunday at 1000-1500 ft were crazy, best Canadian cf18 too date.

This is the best f/a-18 demo of the Nas Oceana in mi opinion...Use all of the hornet agility and maneuver capacities, not only high speed passes wich yankee pilots love so much..making the show boring in some phases.
