The F/A-18 has been my favorite airplane above all else since as long as I can remember. (Granpda was a Naval Aviator in WWII/Korea and lived in Pensacola while I was growing up....used to watch the Blue Angels from his backyard, back when they first started flying the Hornet).....If only the guard flew hornets......
I've never noticed it in other videos before,
but it almost looks as if the wingtips are just barely bending upward during some of the high G stuff...serious load on the wings! (Actually never new it was visible at all on any fighter).
I notice it most on low levels. Going pretty fast and then on a rough air day - those wing tips can move quite a few inches each way

Even though I have TOTAL confidence in the aircraft - it can be a tad unnerving
