I've seen this posted on several sites, it seems to stir a little
emotion deciding on the aircraft make.
YouTube - F18 Hornet Extremely Low Flyby (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sY1ux8gJL1Y)
Well, for a start an F.18 Hornet it certainly isnt!!!. An F.18 has a twin tail. I thought it was a Jaguar at first, but I think it MAY be an AMX. Any ideas???

Mirage F1. End of thread.
The belly tank should make it more identifiable. I think it may be a Croatian or Serbian Air Force fighter, the name of which escapes me after a very large and excellent glass of Bourbon. Cheers.
Yup, that was the other alternative.

French Mirage F1, belly tank and fix refuel probe. Plus the uniform of the techie is a French uniform.
End of, no emotions.
F**ing Idiot - Both of them...!
JEM60,
You would be thinking of the Orao.
Soko J-22 Orao - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soko_J-22_Orao)
The aircraft in the video is a Mirage F-1.

Whilst we're on with recognition - anybody recognise the runway intruder 100 yds away?

Orao is more similar to Jaguar.

No Guys, you're all wrong. If you freeze the frame at 23.05 Sec you'll crearly see that in fact, its a Mirage F1. My guess is that the Muppet in shot is French (judging by the uniform). Looks like a warm day, maybe Chad?
