I hadn't seen this video until today and while it is alittle slow as far as music goes it has some cool footage in it. Check out the manuever at about 6:50 with 7 aircraft in it. Look closely and you'll see why that is such a cool manuever. I have seen the Snowbirds perform around 20 times and don't recall that particular manuever. Here is the link....

Also here is a video of the USAF Thunderbirds doing a Low Show. Hope you enjoy!

I've never seen that one either. I do own a DVD of the snowbirds "1800 seconds" where they explain that every year the show is modified, worked on and presented to Military Command for approval before going public. Perhaps this manouvre is longer in the show.
