Looks like someone modified another video that was an F-14 flyby ... look at
the video frame by frame enlarged. I seem to recall the same sequence +
audio with a single F-14. Biggest problem with the video is that the F-18
(unmodified to blue angel specs) has an inverted time limit for oil pressure
on the engines.

*sigh* No offense, but why is it that just about the first thing
anybody says these days in response to an interesting video is "they
must have edited it on a computer"? Occam's Razor. That stretch
where they fly in front of the sun would be particulary difficult to
get looking that realistic. Just look at any of Hollywood's f/x
movie's. It's pretty easy to spot the difference between real and
CGI.

Not the same at all.

The solo F-14 ( http://www.amberbock.net/Video/superflyby.mpeg ) is
1. Lower (even with, or slightly lower than the deck)
2. Showing a visible wake on the water
3. Going between two ships
4. Sun in completely different position
5. Far fewer and different people in the shot
6. Fewer A/C parked on deck
