Thanks for the replies guys!

That is an E-3 in the background. I am about 20 feet above the deck of the Waikato carrier on final. The E-3 is just one of many aircraft circling the carrier that are part of the active scenery. Very low detail, but fun to have in the background.

Boeingman, its funny you say that about the video, I have just started and should have that soon. It will be just the F-18. Unfortunately, it is hard on framerates and my computer is definately not a powerhouse, so it is going to take some doing!!!

Thanks again
Eric
