    Seing one operating in person and seing one on display are two very different things.

    But military airshows are not just for ordinary people to be amazed. It’s an opportunity for the manufacturer to market their airplanes.

    And while it does burn a lot of fuel. It’s nothing compared to all the private jets flying around the world.

    I’m pretty sure Taylor Swifts jet burns more fuel in a year than all airshows combined.
