Not a 'stunner' of a vid - but does show how much of a thrill it must be to do the Mach Loop. How much to get 558 in the loop (apart from the 600K to get her off the ground for starters)?

Nice vid, Garry! I will make the trip down there one of these days

[Pujgnie]

I bet all the pilots love going through that - and being able to 'chuck' it around into the bargain. Good stuff.

Pot luck I guess as to what turns up. Would be nice to see 558 do that one day... just for posterity !

[Jigsaw]

I love that

[Checkflaps]

OK, I have way too much time on my hands it would seem (but don't tell err indoors). Love this low flying vid.

I've just stumbled across this one, I'm not sure if its been posted before?

Can you imagine just how much of her Fatigue Life that would use up?

Okay, is the first guy Brit or otherwise?

Thanks D4th!

Found this earlier today and forgot to post it.....

It's clipped at the end, but is otherwise outstanding.

Very visually striking, and the music is oddly appropriate.



I've watched it about five times....

Nice vid. It seemed odd that the RATO appeared to have very little effect - well compared to the Blue Angels take off with RATO.

Still love the lunacy of the RATO as a landing tool - too bad it all went 'a bit Pete Tong'

Wow that was a great video, shame it went wrong on the last run

[Cluny]

[Thumper]

Oooops!

[Mayfly]

I know its been posted before but it still the most memorable F15 clip IHO

[Thumper]

I love that one, it's in my favourites

[Cluny]

Thats it , get in amongst the weeds

[Pujgnie]

Got to admit - that I am eventually warming to the Sea Vixen



.....and one for the Herkybird luvvers :

[Dan4th]

Thanks, Phill!

Magic!

Another Vixen one... presumably a newly fitted/refurbed starboard engine test.

[Cluny]

Yep , thats the Brunty based example XJ494
Heres another run

[Xplumberlives]

Lovely to see the Brunty Sea Vixen gradually returning to life.
