CANADIAN F-18 DEMONSTRATION TEAM DELIVERS BREATHTAKING PERFORMANCE AT RIAT 2024 - 4K

The CF-18 Demonstration Team of the Royal Canadian Air Force didn’t disappoint in any of their demos at the Royal international Air Tattoo at RAF Fairford 2024. As photographers their visit to the UK gave us fantastic opportunities to capture their stunning painted jet and not only at RIAT but also a brief visit to the Mach Loop just prior (video to follow shortly) or for those who want a short glimpse then there is a photo here on my Flickr page.

The boys from Cold Lake over having a bit of fun, I see. I am, as always, very proud of our RCAF pilots and of the extraordinarily hard-working ground engineering and maintenance personnel. Their teamwork, and the effort they put in is superb! Thank you for posting this video, from northern Alberta, CA.

A vicious rotation off the runway straight up into a dirty roll then flying that beautiful old bird like it's a rented dirt bike in the woods. The obligatory high alpha pass done at apparent walking speed across the audience line. Very nice routine.

Clearly this pilot is one of the best…….glad American, and glad we have friends to the north, Cheers to Canada, Cheers Have to add these Canadian pilots are absolutely amazing

Canada represents!
Nice livery on our show jets now, and some crisp work on the stick in that routine.

Wow! Now that was a performance and a half! Transitions were so smooth. And that take-off! Man, I'm surprised he never struck his exhaust on the tarmac!
Superb display, and excellent work as always by yourself, Sir. Thanks again for the share 😊 🫡

Now that's what you call a steep short take off.👏👏..personally, i don't know what all those moves are, but they looked effortless and amazing..its amazing something so deadly could be flown so delicately. Fantastic skills on display by the pilots taking part. Many thanks for sharing the videos.

Capt Caleb “Tango” Robert having a good time, Great Filming.

Thank you for this very, very impressive video- not just the incredible aircraft but showcasing your skill as a videographer. No silly distracting music or chatter. Frankly, the best I have seen. I have been unable to be physically present at an airshow for years now, and this video is very satisfying. You "put on a clinic". Keep up the good work. -- PM

First I thought the thumbnail might be click bait but the pilot soon put that to bed. Another great video from Dafydd.

23 years RCAF here, NORAD, Cold Lake, AWACS and back to NORAD, I gotta say, the Hornet always puts on a show. Brilliant work here, and thanks! Cheers to the RCAF Centennial!

My God that is the greatest piloting I've ever seen !!!!

[Fabulousprofound]

6:04 wow great moment having a Spitfire and a CF-18 together

[rickb]

What a show!. Not just a high alpha pass, but an inverted high alpha pass with wheels and hook deployed. Amazing take-off. Amazing high G turns and pivots. Aerial ballet at its best.
Thanks for posting. Great camera work.

[jeff]

Great stuff DP, has to be one of the best demo flights of a CF-18 showing it's capability that I've ever seen . I think USA pilots are probably under more restrictive air show flight rules, but WOW ! Thanks

[Machines.In.Action]

The sound and speed were incredible! 💪

[stuartrollings]

Howdy Big D! Wow what a rock n roll pilot! Amazing show n phenomenal photography! Saddle up! 🇺🇸🇨🇱🤠🙏
