Incredible February 2020 Blue Angel Low Pass Transition to Climb.

Video taken by unknown photographer at the end of runway at NAF El Centro, California as Blue Angel #3 performs an ultra-low take-off transition to climb just beyond the outer fence. The maneuver mimics a Computer Generated Imaging (CGI) scene from the 2020 film “Top Gun: Maverick“ but with a real F/A-18 Hornet.
