Angel
Credit: Russell E. Cooley IV, USAF
Explanation: What type of cloud is that? It is not a naturally occurring one. Looking perhaps a bit like a gigantic owl monster, the cloud pictured above resulted from a series of flares released by an air force jet over the Atlantic Ocean in May. The jet that released the flares, a C-17 Globemaster III, is seen on the right. The flares release smoke and the resulting pattern is sometimes known as a smoke angel. The circular eyes of the above smoke angel are caused by air spiraling off the plane's wings and are known as wingtip vortices.

Mirage F1 Star Wars
This video shows Mirage F1 flying extremely low between canyon rocks in the desert similarly to the spaceships in the movie directed by George Lucas, STAR WARS. It contains some air refuelling operations, low take offs, and more. The exciting eletronic music overpowers this video.
Tomcat Glory
Some of the last F-14 Tomcat videos I could scrounge up. Shows carrier takeoff, in-flight maneuvering and operations, cloud surfing, low level flight over water, carrier landings, and just the F-14D Tomcat ripping up the skies. Its my first edited film so sorry if some of the scenes have little interruptions. So eat your heart out Tomcat lovers, this vid you should enjoy!!
