Very well planned routine! By the way, why was the burner lit so much? I have seen a few videos of real Gripens doing demos and they do not seem to use the burner anywhere near as much..BUT I suspect that might have to do with the sim version's throttle setup more than your flying.

Thank you, this display is a copy of South Africa's best Display pilot "Blokkies" Joubert. But yes, the sim lack in a few ways. For example, Blokkies did a few very high G turns, ( I think 8.5) and the sim could not even maintain 5G. Also, the afterburner is not that accurate, so I guess that's why it was used so often. I only made the video, one of our UVSAAF pilots, Ryno Potgieter did the display. He did a very good job indeed.
