Listen to the loud crowd scream as the F-14 in zone 5 afterburn does a hard right bank with wings fully swept back and vapor clouds as it passes over the crowd. Goosebumps!
Simple. Look at the engines. Their Pratt & Whitney TF-30's only used on the A model Tomcats. B's and D's use the GE-F-110-400 engines and have different exhaust petals.
Man absolutley fantastic video I have never seen an F-14A in action other than top gun of course this has by far got to be the best F-14 demo video on youtube to date and that dirty roll after the touch and go sure gives the superhornet a run for its money!
Actually it was "Dewar" and "Fur" that were killed at Willow Grove. This video is of Lcdr Mark "Crunchy" Burgess with "Fur" as his RIO.. Crunchy was the boss that year of the F-14 Demo Team which also included "Roll" Keiser and "Cobb"
To be honest I don't like american airplanes so much they are kinda to blown with words for me but I love Tomcat it is so nice looking and so good aircraft. Wanna fly one!
RIP Bro's, those of you who didn't know, these Gentlemen were killed when they were performing in NAS Willow Grove later that year. This was by far the best Tomcat demo I have ever seen, I was there, and I have seen the F-14 A,B, & D at Point Mugu, El Toro, and Miramar a gazillion times and these guys even out did the Super Tomcat's from VF-124. Godspeed Sir's!!!!!!!!!!
Sad to hear that. Yes, I have seen that video many times of the crash. It is even more heartbreaking to know it was the same two pilots because this demo was phenomenal. One of the best I have ever seen. Right up there with Dale Snodgrass' demos. In general, this is one of the very best demo including any other type of fighter. You can truly see the passion these two pilots had for this plane because they gave it everything they had.

5:20 and on is BEAUTIFUL. I'm tearing up right now. I miss the Cats.
This was the best and my favorite show I did while on the Tomcat demo team that year. Wish this video had more shots of the ground crew!

The Top Gun guitar theme is running through my head while watching this LOL
wonderful display of the most beautifulest jet ever build.
those things sound like theyre earth-shatteringly loud...all fighter jets are, but this one sounds like its just insane
