I had the Thunderbirds scheme, and as Falcon said, coming directly at or away from you, it will disappear. All you will see is the intake or the exhaust. Until you get used to it, you just have to tell your mind what your intentions of the maneuver where, and not touch the controls as it disappears and comes back. I had the F-18 too, and it did the same thing. Any jet with scale thin wings will disappear, no matter the color.
