That's a funny and well made video, Daniel!
Thanks for sharing.  :aok

Here's one you may or may not have seen. (Probably heard the song though.)
It's got some not safe for work language.

FYI for those that don't know the RNZAF's strike wing (ie jets) was shelved about 7 or so years ago (we have some Skyhawks covered in some sort of giant aircraft condom if anyone wants to buy them), and it was never used in anger (hence all the chopper puke jokes poking fun at them in that video). I think the RAF, RAAF, and some ME countries gobbled up the jet jocks.

Ahh that explains some... I met a kiwi at the European Airshows Convention in Hasselt Belgium, and he was training the Ukranian Air Force and the Ukranian Falcons display team. I wondered how he ended up there. Now I get it.

Saw that video previously, great fun. One thing that stood out for me are the the Huey on the beach scenes. How cool is that. Now I want to be a Kiwi chopper head.
I used to feel a bit sorry for the Kiwi jet jocks but hey, they did get to fly Skyhawks for while. Which is more than I ever did. The truth is that New Zealand didn't really need fast jets. That's the same reason the Irish Air Corps never got them. No real role for them. We do have PC9s as trainers. Can't see the point of them either. I met a chopper jock who spent 200 hours training in PC9's and now flies a light helicopter. It's gets worse the fixed wing guys first deployment is basically a Cessna 172. There should be a song about that!
