tbh, none of those bucks look particularly unseating or big so probably no.
and btw, my very sharp 5yro used to flybuck a lot when schooling and in particular jumping and i just thought it was because she was sensitive.
it got so bad that we went right back to basics and establishing how to behave and how not to behave.
it worked as she jumped a beautiful double clear at her last BE event and came third- so it can be done and saying she is sensitive is no excuse!

I would say it depends how well you sit her bucks.
You do seem to sit them well!
I have seen your posts since she was a young thing, a long time before you backed her and I think you have done wonders with her. I know you've done all the checks and I agree, I think it is just high spirits/monkey business when she doesn't want to work. Mine went through a period (around the age 6 mark) of bucking, refusing to move and threatened rears (actually only reared with a friend once) but she has come out the other side and it was all work related (or rather not wanting to work!). And she could pull some great ears back faces!
