The video starts with the A380 taking off from Abu Dhabi International Airport (AUH) then cuts to Al Fursan's fleet of fighter jets ascending from Al Bateen Airport (AZI) in Abu Dhabi. The aircraft then meet up over the racetrack and perform a spectacular maneuver. The fighter jets, flying slightly behind and under the huge A380, show off their agility with several rolls and turns, all while painting the sky with an array of colors that seem to resemble the hues of the UAE's flag, where Etihad is based. This spectacle is surely one you don't want to miss!

Brendan DorseyContributorBorn and raised in Northern California, schooled in our Nation's capital, and currently working in the greatest city in the world - NYC. I was instantly hooked to traveling the second I stepped foot in Europe. The addiction only grew once I found out I could do it for free, all on points and miles. I could also eat bagels for every meal.
