Great find!
Going up the Matterhorn, you just knew he'd go inverted over the top B)

Yeah, that bit was pretty spectacular, my favourite B)

You'd have to know your aeroplane pretty well to put it into those sorts of maneuvers, going up the Matterhorn I was scared he was going to stall :o :o

Amazing! And how low he gets after passing that dam. Very low! I pity the unsuspecting climbers up these mountains on such a beautiful day! :lol:

Wow, thats a great video, unusual choice of music, but it works out. :thumbup:

This reminded me of another Swiss Airforce video I had seen; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pb4K10UUPq0, there seem to be a lot of them around.

Amazing find- imagne the skill that the pilot had and the power that jet had to pull off those manoevers- reminds me of the times I used to fly 737's down the Grand Canyon :lol:
