    At 1:44 you can see the vertical stabs flexing as he pitches up. Thats so cool!
  • It is cool how they tweaked the flying characteristics of this new Eagle. It reminds me a lot of the F-18 Super Hornet when it comes to pitch and high AoA. But unlike the Super Hornet that has underpowered engines, this F-15 is a real beast! I bet this baby accelerates and climbs like a dream.
  • Demanding show. Well choreographed and flown. Nicely done pilot👍🫡
  • Best air show I’ve been to in decades. There were actually 2 F15 demos. One clean and one fully loaded. B2 flyby, F35C demo, A10s, EA18, F22, and a rare Navy heritage flight. Fantastic

    Wow, top-notch camera work! Excellent video of an excellent aircraft!

    It shows you just how well McDonnell Douglas did designing that airframe. Add a few modern touches like fly-by-wire and more advanced software and you suddenly have an Eagle with Super Hornet levels of nose authority in addition to everything that already made it a great platform.

    Almost 60.000lbs of thrust! The Advanced/EX F-15 is a beast!!!
  • I wanted to be an aeronautical engineer for McDonnell Douglas growing up in the 80’s. Now it’s Boeing. 1991 changed everything.

    8:10 WOW ! ! ! !!!!!!! .....during those pitch up maneuvers the vertical stabilizers flutter like crazy. I can't see how they would last long if exposed to that much flutter. Holy cow ! They better install thrust vectoring nozzles if they expect that thing to survive.

    I have never seen the vertical stabilizers wobble like that. Happens every time they snap the nose up hard.

    8:03 The F-15 Eagle never looked better than like this when it is slick and with the turkey feathers restored on the engine exhaust nozzles.
