USAF LOCKHEED MARTIN F-16 DEMONSTRATION - PARIS AIR SALON (airshowvision)

Airshowvision present one of the very best fast jets in the airshow world - the Lockheed Martin (formerly General Dynamics) F16 Fighting Falcon. Over 30 years old now, but constantly being improved to keep pace with current types, it can still hold its' own with most modern day jet fighter and ground attack aircraft. Many thousands of these planes have now been produced, and are in service, making it very much the modern day equivelent of the Supermarine Spitfire as the greatest and most numerous fighter of its' era. It is in service with many many air forces around the world, including the US, Belgian, Dutch, Italian, Danish, Turkish, and Norwegian, to name just a few. This demo is from the Paris Air Show, and is an extremely busy and exciting display, with very little down time for the pilot from the beginning of the flight to the end. It very much held its' own at this show with the Super Hornet, Rafale and Eurofighter aircraft, which also displayed on the same day.
