Bring back the F-14 Tomcat. Amazing aircraft.

[ZZGE]

Little did people know at the time, the level of greatness they were witnessing that will be remembered for decades to come. We are talking exactly 20 years on and still everyone gets mind blown by the absolutely insane power of the Tomcat, presence, panache and harmony of brute force with beauty. What a fighter!

[rogermahajan]

Loved how the F-14 rolled inverted and then came straight down towards the camera as if it is coming down directly at the camera. The greatest fighter ever made.

[zwanso]

I love love love the F-14 tomcat. It will always be my favorite!

[jonn]

The only thing sexier than one f-14 tomcat is SIX F-14 Tomcats flying in formation.

I was lucky enough to ride in a Tomcat several years ago. As someone who grew up with Top Gun and has always been fascinated by aviation I can clearly say that these 45 Minutes have been the blast of my life and I was sad when it retired.

[KLRGTKR]

F14 was the boss there. The brutal power and absolute earth shattering noise. It really stole the show. Also, some of those maneuvers were so tight, it was mind blowing!

[tomlathrop]

As much as I love watching the Blue Angels I prefer this type of airshow.

[CarFocused]

F18’s are impressive, but the F14’s hit different. Wings swept back they are the most beautiful aircraft ever.

[kmfiz]

0:45 I wish I heeded that advise back then. I did get to see the F-14 many times, now I miss it.

[ratedrodwoods]

Long live the true 👑 f-14 forever the best

[garydobbs]

Tomcats we’re the prettiest fighters ever!! You can’t beat the sound. They had a unique engine sound.

[jakeenglish]

"There will be hornets, there will be tomcats, there will be lots of noise and you are gonna love it"
Truer words have never been spoken

[timruskowski]

The turn at 7:04 makes me have goosebumps! I can only imagine what it felt/sounded like when the sound hit you!

[stevelinwood]

Luv this! Went to many Airshows in my life!

[RedLPS]

The U.S. Navy should have never retired the Tomcat. She was the greatest combat fighter in history. 🇺🇸💯

[jonn]

I love the paint scheme on the F-14B at 16:30.

[pureblood]

I sure wish there were a few flying in Air shows. They would get a huge crowd.

[aryanpers]

The most beautiful airplane ever exists is F14 Tomcat!

[BJbear]

This camera had some great tracking. Excellent captures!
