I don't know if this one is fake or not, but don't jump to conclusions,it
may not be. I have seen two video clips of carrier based aircraft doing more
bizarre things than that, for example off the deck flyby between two ships
with two jets, canopy to canopy one inverted and one rifgt side up. remember
these are 26 year old "men" with the best toys at their disposal. Our tax
dollars at work. and this kind of stuff does go on. If I have not deleted
the MPGs from my hard drive, I will post two of these on my web. I'll make
an announcement when and if.

It would take a very fast shutter speed to stop that airplane without any
blurring. I concur with others, it's a fake.
