Apparently the pilot that buzzed the Grand Teton two weeks ago has a history of do it all to often.

As seen here - he is training another pilot on the intricacies of a flyby.

That gives a whole new meaning to "close air support of ground forces."

That'd be interesting to see them launch those rockets from those platforms.

Defence spending cutbacks?

Sorry guys, those fighter jets are F-15's flown by the Air Farce, not the Navy. So it can't be Goose and Ice. They flew F-14's. Those missles are Sidewinder "S" series and they cold launch, but you would probably need a little more altitude or they would just hit the deck.

Well, at least now we know the Canadians have an Air Force.
