What also impresses me is that the F/A-18 is such a good aircraft aircraft with the precicise control systems and feedback via its flying controls for such close formation aerobatics. It must weigh in at c. 60,000 lbs at display take off weights and the throttle / engines response too is very impressive I can't imagine a similar standard of close formation being possible in a Tornao F 3 or with a GR Tonkw,,of whatever mark ,no matter how good the crews were
