Superb jet video

Shiny little jets going very fast - yeehaw!!
The thought of the formation work needed to shoot this is pretty mind-blowing, but the footage is even better...

I've seen that video before, it's very cool, something just feels good about it.  It's a pretty high quality production compared to what we normally see, and it's something you don't see very often.  The only thing I don't like is the goofy fake cockpit shots.  Other than that it's a great little video, makes me want to go zooming through mountain passes in my Alphajet. :P ;)

Fake cockpit shots? I have to watch it again; didn't look fake to me.
I think the music chosen really makes it work- no idea what song that is, but it fits.

the song is "push" by Madonna, seen the video a few times now, and as rotty says the music suits the song.

Everything from the backseat of the Alphajet is real, of that I'm sure, but @19sec and @2min 44sec there are shots from the front seat that look really fake to me.  Mostly because of the way the airplane moves, because it looks like you'd have to have a huge side-slip in the first one, and in the second one, it looks like you're in a horrible spin that would make your eyeballs splatter on the side of the canopy.  It really doesn't take away from the video at all really though, it's still great. ;)
