F-18 carrier pilot video.

WOW

That's cool.... Thanks for the video.

I noticed the winder on his port wing flexing a bit. The pilot looks more intent on visuals out the canopy and not so much on any instruments.
I guess this is a VFR flight. The trap was interesting to watch. That dude looked to bust the sound barrier (saw vapor streams going over his wings).
 
The other wing pylons will flex as well. He is referencing his HUD for the most part, so no need to look inside. "Vapes" can occur at any speed, lots of clouds so lots of moisture in the air that day.
