Thanks for the info Mackey.

I have 21 flights on my F-18F now, had a blast 4th of July weekend! I stuck a GoPro in the back seat, I've since moved the camera to the front, but this was the easy way to do it on short notice.

If you want to skip to the flying part, start at 3:32. We fly off of the old Randolph Field WWII training ruways, most of them have been destroyed but we managed to save a pretty good section to fly on, thank you Randolph! Next to the old runways is the still active training runway that they just refinished, T-38 Talons do touch and go's for student training. Ailerons are still a little sensitive, but I'm starting to get used to them, you will see this beast do a very nose high and slow touchdown!

Enjoy:
