More onboard Vark action

[Xplumberlives]

That's an incredible rate of climb in the first video, no sooner had they left the ground and they were above the clouds in a cruise!

Those crazy Spaniards!

[RLN]

Did anyone else notice that the steering wheel was on the wrong side of the car? Crazy Spanish, indeed!

[Xplumberlives]

I meant it was a Spanish F18!

Now that is a cracking video that touches the heart as well - those back/front packs are huge!!

Thanks for posting that.

Ah - but did you notice that in the second string the third bloke is travelling light - he's not stupid ...he only has his overnight bag and his toothbrush
I bet he stashed his big pack in the first Hummer to go out - sensible boy

[RLN]

Makes you want to fly fast jets. Where did i go wrong?

[Spitfire]

Even fighter pilots need electricity ... could they manage a power station

[Sooty655]

Ford Tri-Motor Aerobatics

[Hihonyr8811]

C-27
They're great little aircraft, and an excellet display


who knew a tri motor could do that, how low was his wing at the start what a pilot

[Thumper]

I love the C-27 too, very nimble for a big beasty!

Not sure on that Tri-Motor but the left wing does look like it is actually scraping on the floor as you can see a "puff" of something, dirt of smoke or whatever just before he goes almost vertical back into the sky.,... crazy crazy dude!!

[Olicat]

This is one of my favourites, i love the Spitfire PR XIX and its lovely griffon engine and I also love Contra rotating propellers so combine the two and you would get a great sounding and looking spitfire


Edit: it was love at first sight when i saw this

love love love love love love love!

[Olicat]

New underwear please...

[Thumper]

LOL Oli that was a good one

Apologies if you have seen this before. I'm not going back through all the threads here.

I am so glad I got to see and photograph a few of these awesome and truly Iconic aircraft.

I remember being shown around the SR71 hangar at Mildenhall and being told to avoid the puddles under the fuel tanks.. JP7 would eventually dissolve concrete!! I hadn't realised that she leaked so much on the ground, when cold, that it had to refuel immediately after takeoff as the tanks would have nearly run dry by then.

I also didn't realise that all the pilots had to be married and somewhat mature in age.

Even today this is an astonishing aircraft.
