Awesome close-up footage Nick!! I couldn't get enough of the show, so I went both days (parked along Euclid at the end of the runway) Each year they always seem to out-do themselves!
@cnuman the wso helps with information during the maneuvers. There's a video from the first F-15E demo pilot explaining what the wso does. I didn't know what he did either lol
nice video sir. should of got more of the ground crew and marshalling. i practiced alot for that show, the jets definately did not cooperate with me on that show.
The air intakes at the wing root destabilizes it's turning ability. If you moved them back and more under the wing and gave the wing a lifting body wing root, this would stabilize the aircraft a little better. Watch how the plane looks like it rocks from tip to tail when the turns get a little tight. The air going into the intakes at the wing root looks like it destabilizes it.

@T1MCPT Thats how it always sounds. When the Jet Fuel Starter is weak it takes FOREVER to get the first engine running.
And STILL the Most Handsome Jet in the Inventory !!
Thanks Mike!

just curious, if its a demo team why do they always have the second seat occupied? VIP's or actual weapons officers?

On the ground the F-15 has a better whistle to it but in the air the F/A-18 Super Hornet is louder and sexier
