I believe it was Ghost Rider, but a funny response none the less.

Both of those videos kick ass. It appears that the F-14 in the first video is closing in on the ship at a faster rate of speed before the film goes to slow motion. If anybody has more vids like those please post them. Just think, we all own a little bit of those planes. (tax dollars) The pilots that fly those are some lucky s.o.b.s to control such amazing machines. I am a person that is very seldom jealous of anything but when I see news anchors, race car drivers, movie stars ect. get test flights....Im jealous
