Absolutely phenomenal display Th noise as it went past 😍 goodness me! The majority of the crowd on their feet including me! Outstanding display. Not as cool as an F-111 dump and burn but still INCREDIBLE!
@@jockojockoson9995 Every pilot works their ass off to get any certificate, civilian or military. Better than everyone is a terrible term to describe a fighter pilot especially in the united states. There is a culture of fighter pilots talking shit to every other pilot as if they were on top of a mountain. Joking or not, imagine being able to fly the coolest planes in the world and having the audacity to bring down other pilots. Its opportunity that separates a military pilot from a civilian pilot, its opportunity. I want you to understand that.
To be down on the beach and watching this as I was, you don't realise how much they have to go through performing these stunts. The Pacific Airshow is awesome on many levels.
I was impressed with how clear the MFDs were. Wonder if they adjusted the FPS/exposure of the cameras or maybe the Super Hornet has better displays something. Did anyone see how rough the turbulence was flying along the beach? Ouch😖
Simply stunning. Plane is awesome, pilot is talented and how the WISO can do his work in the back seat during flight maneuvers under up to 8 G's is beyond belief. What a ride. Attended the airshow. Great work to all the pilots and the amazing planes. Thank you RAAF.
Having served in the RAAF for 18 years, a tour in Baghdad, Iraq at Camp Sather watching this Superhornet display at the Pacific Airshow actually had me in tears. This footage is brilliant as it also shows that inertia plays a massive part of being a jet Pilot. One of my jobs was an A/C refueller I’ve seen FA-18’s take the cable at night due to a PAN which in itself is impressive. I think I recall them saying this Pilot’s call sign was Woody…thank you so much for putting on such an amazing display and thank you for your service ❤️
How many people went home and watched Top Gun after the show :) Brilliant display - so good splashing around in the water with this overhead. Hopefully it becomes a yearly fixture at the GC.
Thanks Royal Australian air force. Special thanks to the pilots and ground crew keeping these planes in the air. Wonderful that you can share this experience.
This is fantastic footage. I've never seen a pilot/WSO brace himself like this using a grab handle or arm against the canopy. Incredible. The roll rate of the FA18F is gob smacking. Well done whoever put this together in the RAAF.
I watched this from the beach both Saturday and Sunday and the feeling on the ground was incredible. Everyone got up and walked to the shore to get a close look and the beach was dead quiet! Thank you for the amazing display!!
Phenomenal! Fantastic footage, showing the ferocity of working hard down low and fast. Love it, just aircraft noise, nothing else to distract, keep the video's coming RAAF 😊
That was dope! Amazing footage. As an Aussie it makes me proud of our RAAF. I'm so glad you guys are out there keeping us safe. Thank you for your service for our country.
WOW ! next best thing to sitting in the back for the ride. iIt'll never get as ' real as ' this. Seriously spectacular video. Beats watching all those vids here on UA-cam that are filmed from the ground ! I remember when I was in RAAF, based at Pearce in 1986 thereabouts. I was sun backing on the top floor balcony facing the air field and these two 18's came screaming in one after the other very close together and low. The pilots put on a special show for everyone at the base. Fond memories. Thank you for your loyal service Gentlemen. Go Royal Australian Air Force.
I am in awe of these young Aviators . While watching this I was a 30 year old again, feeling the acceleration, the Gs and the sound. Thank you for this amazing display. Per Ardua Ad Astra and beyond.
Thanks, that was great footage, did the Jungle Warfare Course at Canungra and flew out of the Gold Coast in a Hercules, the RAAF pilot flew along the Gold Coast beach at the Height of the Highrise buildings, had a beach side window seat, fantastic ride and view.
@@randymarsh6679 its final manoeuvre it punches through the clouds and leaves the area without a sound leaving the crowd looking up:) (waiting for more:)
Sydsqaud on youtube did a live feed today and tomorrow they will be doing one. Good quality and hope you get to see another one soon mate. Be safe and take care in life.
Far out You really get a feel for how much stress the Airframe goes threw Amazing they don’t just shatter into pieces . And I’m sure it was at half throttle 😳
Show off! What a fabulous weekend, and all from the comfort of our front deck! Best event ever held on the Gold Coast, can't wait for next year. Big thank you for posting this video too! As I said before, SHOW OFF!
Saw this on Saturday 19th August. FANTASTIC. The tail walk was incredible. When the pilot finished that and turned towards the ocean, I experienced the raw power of its engines. Unparallelled feeling‼️💓💓💓 Thank you❣️❣️❣️
Awesome on all levels. The capture of footage was par excellence, superb resolution and the use of actual sound in the cockpit was simply brilliant. Well done RAAF. Par Adua Ad Astra at Aero Regatta Del Sol!
This cockpit footage is absolutely incredible! RAAF's best of the best! The FA-18 is my favourite fighter jet of all time. Tried to get into the pilot program back is 1997 after high-school and missed out for family medical history. It's all I ever wanted to do. Massive respect to the men and women who get to pilot these magnificent machines everyday in service to our nation of Australia. Can't wait for the expo and airshow in November 18-19 at Williamtown and Newcastle. Looking forward to the Roar of the F-35 flyover... it scared my pets half to death on the Anzac Day flyover.
Awesome footage. I was at North Stradbroke Island in 2002, ankle deep in the surf, and me and my gf alone on the beach - when out of nowhere an F-111, at 90 degree bank angle and wings spread roared past us, clearing the water's surface by a couple of metres, tops. It was maybe 30 metres out from where I was standing as it tore by. Just jaw-dropping, and quite surreal given the idyllic location.
10G in the Top Gun Maverick movie 🎬 ,,,, awsome display of skill shown by the pilot 👌 i felt like I was in the cockpit too while watching 👀 that on my big tablet screen,, well done by the RAAF , LOVE YOUR WORK
Wouldn’t that be a treat !!!!! I think they are a bit difficult to keep airworthy now given lack of parts and airframe weaknesses with age and high G’s of these type of aircraft. Great memories though.
That was awesome, thanks RAAF. The only thing I'd change is adding an air speed and altimeter in the bottom corner for greater perspective. But overall, brilliant.
Awesome!!! Love the G force meter, though Altimeter and Airspeed would certainly be incredible. Saw the display all three days, got some great pics, amazing demo!
Thanks so much for putting on an amazing show for us, I attended day 3, was outstanding to see the capabilities of these wonderful machines and their dedicated and talented pilots and WSO’S, keep doing us proud! Also a shoutout to the Roulettes for their awesome precision and doing what they do best. Without the PC21 as our flight trainer for new pilots we couldn’t have such a competent airforce.
man what a video. Those people in the tops of those towers looking down on the plane would be a great view. but what could possibly top the view from the cockpit of an air force plane. Best office view in the world
Intense. This POV is always eceptional to see the wing - and all the inputs the computer makes, lots of movement. Thankfully, no music - this sound is awesome. Very cool.
The first time I ever saw the original Hornet was back in 1984 or 85 in Cairns. Two of them flew over the city and then went vertical. I was amazed at how fast they can disappear upwards. Ever since I have loved all the f18 variants, and the latest Super Hornet is one very beautiful bird.
The F-111 at Caloundra air museum can still be used and would only take 1 week to become airworthy incase of a war etc it's a shame they had to berry most of them due to the asbestos used on the panels.
I saw one of your PC-21 training planes go over my course at Kilburn yesterday and it was hectic because of the speed and height that he was going at!!😳
Saw that 3 days in a row. Absolutey incredible. Thanks fellas, great work. The WSO got a real work out there. RAAF, please bring more Hornets, F35's and the rest of the fleet next year.
It is the first Event of a 10 year deal to host this show. $45 entry with a closed off precinct, food drinks and corporate areas for those wishing to be wined and dined. Unreal seeing as its still winter. 28 degs i believe. My neighbour whom i just had a beer with went there to have a look. Said it was a great day and well worth the cost. Next year for myself.
This is some of the best demo footage ever released. No music. No silly voice over. Just airplane.
Absolutely awesome stuff , was there and it was incredible
Indeed
I went and the boom surprised the crowd a lot
Absolutely phenomenal display Th noise as it went past 😍 goodness me! The majority of the crowd on their feet including me! Outstanding display. Not as cool as an F-111 dump and burn but still INCREDIBLE!
Agreed. Music is annoying.
This pilot is living the dream, great footage.
You spelled “worked his ass off and was better than everyone” wrong
Doesn't mean he wasn't living the dream though...@@jockojockoson9995
I wish i was living that same dream.😢

The Pacific Airshow is awesome on many levels.
I was there on the Friday, and had an absolute blast.
I don't know if it was Ice Man or Maverick taking care of business in the cockpit ,,,,,
Woody and chook were legends. Best F18 display i've seen yet
I can’t remember ever seeing better cockpit footage than this. So freaking awesome THANK YOU.
Same here, great footage and best of all actually hearing the sounds of the cockpit
Yes, the sounds are incredible and the violent high alpha stuff had me cheering from the couch!

Major thank you to all pilots!! What an amazing show. So lucky to have witnessed this!
the amount of vibration from the camera whenever he turns that jet , insane stress and torture the planes go through , and the pilot aswell , respect
What an amazing Airshow it was. The pilots are so talented. The F/A 18 hornet was spectacular.
My eyes will never see anything to match this. So talented so cool incredible aircraft. Thanks for your time entertaining us!!
We travelled from north western Australia to attend the show. All 3 days on the beach front and centre.
Loved every minute.
Thank you
Incredible footage of our Super Hornet. God bless our Aussie friends.
Thanks Royal Australian air force.
Special thanks to the pilots and ground crew keeping these planes in the air.
Wonderful that you can share this experience.
This is fantastic footage. I've never seen a pilot/WSO brace himself like this using a grab handle or arm against the canopy. Incredible. The roll rate of the FA18F is gob smacking.
Well done whoever put this together in the RAAF.
It's a two seater bro. 👍
It was shown in Topgun
I love the noise and power of the Hornets as they leave the Amberley Base runway.
I watched this from the beach both Saturday and Sunday and the feeling on the ground was incredible. Everyone got up and walked to the shore to get a close look and the beach was dead quiet! Thank you for the amazing display!!
Half your luck!
Now that is very impressive inside the cockpit of the F/A-18F Super Hornet 🤩🤩
Breathtaking!
Thank you so much for your pov video, this left me speechless ❤
So good, being there that day and seeing this from the ground was insane, could feel the sound in your chest. 👌
You guys were bloody fantastic this weekend! Can't wait to enjoy this again next year!
Was there today to watch the Airshow. Amazing acrobatics! Thanks to the Organizers.
Aerobatics. Acrobatics are for circus performers.
Great view of the extreme aerobatics. The pilot is giving the air frame a good workout with those high speed pitch manoeuvres.
I really hope this becomes an annual event. Had a great weekend thanks to you guys.
Phenomenal! Fantastic footage, showing the ferocity of working hard down low and fast. Love it, just aircraft noise, nothing else to distract, keep the video's coming RAAF 😊

Yeah I thought it may have been up somewhere around the mid-eastern coast by looking at the position of the sun.
So glad I was there! Thank you Woody and Chook for the amazing display!
Thank You All for your Service !
Whatched all 3 days and it's never not amazing. One of my favourite things
This was incredible to see today’s on the beach. But then to come home and see this was the icing on the cake!
Best airshow i have been to, and this was of course the highlight!!
By far the best footage from the RAAF of this type. Thanks very much and congrats to all involved in making it.
Got goosebumps watching this today the raw power is amazing love it
Seen it over the F1 race @Melbourne , she’s a beautiful aircraft
@@ngno.fanclubyeah seen that footage she always puts on a show
@@randymarsh6679 its final manoeuvre it punches through the clouds and leaves the area without a sound leaving the crowd looking up:) (waiting for more:)
@@ngno.fanclub you seen this one even tho it's 7 years old at 1:40 the sound is amazing
This looks so cool… wish I could’ve gone to the airshow, but I’m still glad I made it to Avalon

Far out
You really get a feel for how much stress the Airframe goes threw
Amazing they don’t just shatter into pieces . And I’m sure it was at half throttle 😳
Never known a channel that just puts the clip in no voiceovers nothing it’s really amazing
Show off! What a fabulous weekend, and all from the comfort of our front deck! Best event ever held on the Gold Coast, can't wait for next year. Big thank you for posting this video too! As I said before, SHOW OFF!

A great day
Best F18 flying ever
What a show
perfect weather on the Gold Coast
and a whale turned up as well
This cockpit footage is absolutely incredible!

Absolutely brilliant. ❤ i went today and just had a perfect day. This display was total kick ass
Wicked hits 8g at 7:40 love it
10G in the Top Gun Maverick movie 🎬 ,,,, awsome display of skill shown by the pilot 👌 i felt like I was in the cockpit too while watching 👀 that on my big tablet screen,, well done by the RAAF , LOVE YOUR WORK
I miss the Mirage III-O. I loved seeing those scream overhead during the 80's. We should keep one for airshows, as well as a Pig.
Wouldn’t that be a treat !!!!! I think they are a bit difficult to keep airworthy now given lack of parts and airframe weaknesses with age and high G’s of these type of aircraft. Great memories though.
When the Mirage IIIO went vertical it disappeared into a blue sky, that's how slippery it was.
Send the Growler on Sunday and jam everyone's phones on the beach
That was awesome, thanks RAAF. The only thing I'd change is adding an air speed and altimeter in the bottom corner for greater perspective. But overall, brilliant.
The man the myth the legend Adam Stokes watches RAAF videos😎
@@rrocketman - haha, my crypto brother!!
This is awesome, being able to see a part of what they see and the g's they take
It was so amazing watching you from the ground! Thank you for coming out and for your service.
These birds fly over my place near on every other day, absolute inspirational machinery. Love to sign up but cant lock in for those 10yrs or so
Awesome!!! Love the G force meter, though Altimeter and Airspeed would certainly be incredible. Saw the display all three days, got some great pics, amazing demo!
Absolutely totally 100% awesome! Thanks to the pilot and all involved in bringing us this vid. Next year F35?
Saw this at the air show this year. Absolutely epic. I’d say it was a Top Gun-esque performance

Superb. Pilot you should be very proud - what an achievement to pole that thing around. Happy landings.
Absolutely awesome footage and flying, love seeing how active the leading edge slats are during manoeuvers!
Oh man what a view. Welll done team great display.
I play alot of DCS, but seeing the real thing is so much more different!
The movements look so much more intense and its so cool to look at!
Briilliant video. Great to see smoke and flares deployed!
Beautiful. Really appreciate getting to enjoy the cockpit ambience.
I hope they will do this type of video in 2024 ill be there!
man what a video. Those people in the tops of those towers looking down on the plane would be a great view. but what could possibly top the view from the cockpit of an air force plane. Best office view in the world

Nice! Greetings from Switzerland!
Nice to hear the Royal.....teams Australia and the UK .....the best
I was on the 77th floor of the highest building right there and as he flew past he was mostly at my eye level, it was epic.
Sensational …. That is the only way that I can describe this fabulous footage.
Airshow tickets sold out fast. so was very disappointed. The RAAF was the big drawcard for me. This is brilliant footage. Thank you for posting.
You didn't need a ticket. Just stand on the beach, it was awesome. Come next year and bring the sunscreen!
Wow, that was the coolest video I've seen in a long time. You have to watch this on a big screen TV.
Only wish there was still a pig airworthy for these shows, but the Rhinos are a thrill to watch and hear.
The F-111 at Caloundra air museum can still be used and would only take 1 week to become airworthy incase of a war etc it's a shame they had to berry most of them due to the asbestos used on the panels.
I love these onboard videos. The sound will put me to sleep.
Awesome video, thanks for the show, this one and the one from the ground. It was impressive. Send us the F35's next year please :)
This is epic!!🔥🔥🔥
Loved your coverage today guys, no music, just great commentary and epic footage!
Excellent, brilliant piece of piloting👌. As others have said, no unnecessary music spoiling the natural sound👌👏👏
I saw one of your PC-21 training planes go over my course at Kilburn yesterday and it was hectic because of the speed and height that he was going at!!😳
Was so good. The ending top tier!
Saw that 3 days in a row. Absolutey incredible. Thanks fellas, great work. The WSO got a real work out there. RAAF, please bring more Hornets, F35's and the rest of the fleet next year.
Flat out fascinating. Balls of steel.
Absolutely incredible. Thanks for the exciting show!
Thank you for sharing an amazing video. We were watching your performance from the beach. We absolutely loved it!!

Or you can just go for free and sit on the beach, no need to be in a marquee full of wankers.
So you must have had a bad experience in the Marque full of wankers then?
Great show, between this and Riverfire we're starting to live in the airshow capital of the world.
That was incredible. They know their target audience!
I was exiting my school and I seen the F/A-18 super hornet shotting flairs why doing the barrel rolls.
Great display!
That was mint, thanks for the ride along!
