    Jim,

    Thanks for posting this video – I was out all day at the event, and the final flyover in formation was awesome (in the real sense of that word). What a perfect day for San Diego and the Navy to show off – having moved here for retirement from the liberal Bay Area, if felt so good to be unapologetically pro-military. When the final flyover took place, everyone along the waterfront cheered.

    BTW – if anyone wants to capture this video to their hard disk, Youtubedownloader is great for this. Just Google youtubedownloader, and download the CNET (Macafee approved) version.

    Thanks for the great video. I am on east coast and there was little or no news of this fantastic show locally.

    You’re welcome.

    I thought that this is probably an once-in-a-lifetime event to see the entire spectrum of naval aviation flying in one video.

    And yes agreed Mark, San Diego is a military town, and proud of it.

    Beautiful work by the cameraman. The image was incredibly stable and in focus. You definitely don’t see that very often in YouTube videos.

    It was my birthday wanted to spend the day at Cabrillo National Park, but do to the enormous traffic due to this show, i turned around, traffic was a nightmare. Didn’t know the show was going on would of never attempted to go. Anyway, a good thing but to many people in San diego to enjoy it

    The same guy has added another showing the LCAC and another of helicopter flybys. One shot has a bunch of Hueys & Huey Cobras in loose formation — it can’t help but bring to mind the Ride of the Valkyries.

    p.s.: Am disappointed that I haven’t yet found any footage of F-14s, or of the V-22’s transitioning flight modes.
