Wow, Raw Footage, Bagram airfield crash 29 apr 2013
http://youtu.be/icfVsql38oc
yeah Z, that was some wicked footage. it's chilling watching such a technologically advanced aircraft just fall out of the sky, literally.
i don't think a crash of this type with such a large aircraft has ever been caught on film before.
so far the analysis of it seems to show that one or more of those MRAP trucks (which are 14+ tons a pop) they were caring let loose and rolled aft throwing off the CG.
what a shame.
it reminds me of this video of a de havilland DHC-4 crashing due to the same reason, also very chilling.

Watch the take off roll at 1:10, it looks like real film, (watch his rudder and wheels/struts).

The only thing that kept me from believing that was real film was the fact that the tail wheel never swiveled when the plane turned. Other than that it had me fooled.

This is a Good one!!!
since radios were not so advanced, audio clips from WW2 are quite rare.
this make the following radio chatter clip of a lancaster bomber being attacked by a german fighter during a war mission over germany particularly interesting.
the crew seems to panic as the german plane engages the lancaster shortly after the latter has dropped its bombed, and the captain at one point shouts "okay, don't shout all at once!"
eventually one of the gunners manages to bring down the german fighter...
chip chip cheerio chaps, good show!

17 minute video made in 1945 to indoctrinate crews transitioning from Europe to the Pacific and flying very low level bombing and strafing missions.
The bomb groups were primarily tasked with ground and anti-ship attacks, inflicting huge losses on Japanese forces, far out of proportion to their numbers.
Great footage of extremely low level actions. Combat footage starts ~10:00.

Don't ask. Don't tell.
here's an angle you can't even get in IL2...
"I had a vision in my head about putting a camera on the end of the 50 cal gun facing the ball turret so you could see the aircraft rotating in the background. Whitney, the crew chief on the B-24 and a great guy, installed his Gopro camera and captured exactly what I had in mind."

The incredible story of the Cornfield Bomber
During a training mission from Malmstrom AFB on Feb. 2, 1970, this F-106 entered an uncontrollable flat spin forcing the pilot, Maj. (Ret.) Gary Foust, to eject.
Unpiloted, the aircraft recovered on its own and made a gentle belly landing in a field
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCFQlAiaWwY
:drinking-43:
Note to self, flat spin = take hands and feet off controls and everything will turn out fine.
S!
~S~ Hogan
It all depends on the type of aircraft and the trim settings when the spin accures.
Wow, I say you did a helluva good job trimming it.
S!
I have heard of this happening when f-4,14,a-6, and 7 pilots looking back and seeing thier aircraft flying flat and normal. Todays planes have fly-by-wire in the 18 Blue Angels flying low and upside down will lower thier chin to the chest and fake the plane thinking the pilot blacked out and it flies straight and level. Will FBW work in a flat spin.

Regardless of the State laws, Large companies still wont allow it and continue to test the employees.
S!
That's correct. Almost all employers these days have a strict policy prohibiting drug and alcohol use, and do test employees routinely. For most, it's zero tolerance. In addition, most contractors need to show proof they have a drug & alcohol program in order to even bid on commercial contracts.
I as a federal employee can still be fired, fined and or jail time for showing up too work and test positive for drugs. It is ironic that the Ship yard can not do random drug testing, but if I get hit by a crane, vehical, get hurt or break the rules I can then be tested. I know that most if not all companies still test there employees. I would like to know what is safer for recreational use alchol or weed. I personally prefere a shot of a good Bourbon on occasion. Like after a bad day of racing. :lol

S~ Fellas,
Just wanted to let you know, if you want to embed a youtube video to play right from the website, you have to get the embedded link (usually says iframe etc in the beginning. Then all you have to do is put a [] with the words html and /html like shown below. I had to take out the brackets for obvious reasons.

Quote from: _AH_JimDandy on July 02, 2014, 01:30:47 PM
What game is use for the virtual demo team to practice all of this?
it's Lock On: Modern Air Combat. the predecessor in a way to the DCS series.. made by the same people as IL2, developed by Eagle Dynamics and published by Ubisoft and 1C Company.
i use to play it a while ago, quite the fun game for it's time. theyy did add a DLC addon called flaming cliffs which i never tried, focused on the Su-25 russian frogfoot....
now there is a flaming clifs 3 which is on the DCS series.. i guess they bought them out or joined up... DCS is where it's at now for jet sims...
funny too, the map in game for LOMAC is over the current hot spot of Crimea "Ukraine/Russia" and north eastern Black Sea.

Aces High used to have an aerobatic team some time back and they were good. I think it was headed up by _AH_Gonzo with Johny and I think BBQ and they had all their skins alike. It was fun and on practice nights they would let others of AH follow close behind...well (try) to follow but stay out of the way. They were G O O D.
If the AH aerobatic team should start up again count me in.
Back about 7years ago Ghostbear and I flew with an aerobatic team called the United Teams.
So I do have lots of hours in aerobatics and formation flying. I love it as much as racing. (kooky)
I am interested in starting it back up, used to fly lead back in the day. BBQ, Johnny? Any others?
I wouldnt mind trying out for the team though I dought I have what it takes. Dogfighting is way different than aerobatics.
It is different for sure, but it only makes you a better dogfighter as you can judge distances and closures better. But it is a mental workout!
Lippy my friend you are one of the top air racers.
Formation and aerobatics call for the same disciplines
as Air Racing. Steady, Concentrate and Focus.
You obviously have what it takes to do this.

Thanks fragg and tomtom, I am extremely busy these past weekends and the ones to come. I would not mind doing some flying on Wed or Thursday any day except Friday - Monday. Maybe Thursday since Tuesday and Wed. are booked. :drinking-43:
TD that drum line was amazing. That was a lot to execute from memory. I was a member of the drill team during Boot Camp, although I only carried a flag. I did not volunteer fast enough to be a member of the crack rifle team. I do remember the extra work we put in to get every thing in tune. I was quite proud of that.

Most hats can accommodate a chin strap which by the way was replaced or hidden by the hat band.
??? Lip
Down wash
my only questing is how did they keep those cowboy hats on in all that rotor wash?
Is this not what you asked in your post. Stetson hats AKA cowboy hats have a hat band now. They used to be a chin strap that went threw the middle of the hat down and under the chin, it is how hats stay on. Or he just pushes the hat down hard on the head. that is hard on the ears and can blister them if the hat moves some. Rodeo cowboys used a hat chin as well. Mostly now a days it is replaced with a decorative hat band. Some style like Richard Petty's straw and felt hats have the a Rattle Snake skull and skin or the skull of small rodents, most it is a simple leather band with a fether stuck in it. STUCK A FEATHER IN HIS HAT AND CALLED IT MACCARONI. Any other questions on cowboy hats. :lol
it was really just a joke question to begin with. (roll)

Just one of the many things I did in my life. After WW2 I went to work flying for Byerly Aviation in Peoria, Illinois and crop dusting by air was just coming in to use. There were no regulations and any one with a plane could do it so the guy I was with said he would try it so he took a Piper Cub...moved the front seat forward as far as it would go...took out the back seat...built a sheet metal hopper with an opening in the belly for a shoot and a wire handle up to the front seat to open and close the shoot...got a contract from a farmer to spray a corn field...filled the hopper with a crop dust and the tank with gas....told me where the field was and he and I got in the crop dusting business that day. We used that old Cub for two crop seasons before it just gave out. Just thought i would tell my story.

I HAVE WITH SEVERAL AIRCRAFT SUCH AS THE MIG 15 AT 700 KMH NOT JUST ONCE BUT LOOPED OVER AND DID IT AGAIN TRIED FOR A THIRD AND CRASHED ON THIRD ATTEMPT. opps sorry for the caps. I thought I had it saved. i posted it here once before.
Never been able to do it even once...and I don't really feel too bad about it.
~S~
Flying through a hanger is no big deal. I know the guy(long time ago)who flew through the St. Louis Arch the day before it opened. In ops. school we had to fly under a bridge...climb and do a loop over it and come down and go under it again to qual the Corsair. I myself flew an Areonca through the goal posts at a football game. No brag...just facts.

Couldn't find the "Image" page so this will have to do.
Just a little Thunderhead building close to my house. Thought it looked neat and was worth sharing.

Johnny went through that tunnel inverted in a 109 of some type. But then again Johnny was Johnny.

That cloud is called a...'Culonimbus'(sp). We called them...anvil tops' 'cause it looked like a black smith's anvil. Also you could tell which way it was movring from the tail so we could know which way to fly around it. The one in the pic. is moving right to left so fly around it to the right.
No brag...just facts.
Saint Barthélemy Airport is widely known as being one of the most extreme airports with regular commercial service in the world. As such, it is an unlikely place to see WWII fighters tearing up the overhead pattern and doing high-speed, ultra low-level flybys, but the Texas Flying Legends did just that back in 2011.

BLUE ANGELS - Insane footage takes you inside the cockput...
CONTRARY TO POPULAR OPINION THEY DO NOT WEAR G-SUITS WHILE DOING THIS. A G-SUIT RESTRICTS THEIR MOVEMENT TOO MUCH AND WOULD LIKELY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.
Footage courtesy of the U.S. Navy & the Blue Angels
Ever wonder what "Pure Awesome" looks like? Wonder No More. This may be one of the best... Video runs 3:44. For Sure Go Full Screen.... Guys...this footage is of the "slot man" in the Diamond formation ...toughest flying due to wingtip vortices, etc...when he "smiles", he is pulling some serious positive/negative "g" forces... WOW! What a ride! Notice the rest of the formation in the Pilot's reflective goggles!

~S~
The first knife edge he pulled.......I passed out in my rocking chair.
Awesome visuals.
Wish I knew how to delete the music and leave in the engines.
I will never understand why so many folks want to taint aircraft video's with music, it covers so much of the aircraft engine sounds. One day no one will be able to see what an aircraft sounded like because it will all be covered with other noise.......now if it was a electric motor like rc planes have these days I could see it.

The Time When The USS America Dropped Live Pigs On The USS Kennedy's Deck
The story goes that a helicopter crew from the USS America was sent on a mission to deliver "urgent paperwork" to their relieving carrier, the USS John F. Kennedy.
The chopper touched down on the "Big John's" flight-deck, and out charged three frightened pigs painted red, white and blue, and covered with grease.
You can get an idea of the flight-deck crew's stunned reaction, and the chase that followed in the video.
Upon their departure, the helicopter crew asked the Kennedy for a "low pass up your port side," the answer to which was a very clear "negative!"

Yep...been there..experanced that. Rule of thumb for light aircraft operating in and out of O'hare field Chicago was:
Lift off before the spot where the biggie just lifted and stay above his climb-out and
Land beyond the spot where the biggie just landed ...no vortex there
On leaving O'hare I have hit clear air vortex 10 miles from the field.

I have not checked any WW2 museums in Germany lately to see how many restored B-17 & B-24 Bombers are in them or P-51...47...38 other allied fighters are in them. Any one else know?
How they figured this all out i don't know, but it's impressive!! :drinking-42:
The map pinpoints the exact location of every bombing raid by either the Royal Air Force or the United States Army Air Forces from the start of the conflict in 1939 until its end six years later.
It vividly demonstrates the importance of the 1.6million tonnes of explosive deployed against the Nazis and their allies - and the way Britain and America collaborated in the war.

Outstanding video on the Spitfire; when watching this learned something new later Spitfires were fitted with .50 browning guns defentilty gave them the teeth they needed over the .303s
Any Spitfire with an e wing (ie: IXe, XIVe, XVIe) carries 2 x 20mm and 2 x .50s or more rarely just 4 x 20mm. The former are easily identifiable cause the 20mms are in the outboard cannon bays with the .50s in the inner bays.

Junocam is aboard and will be taking high res photos. Not sure when we'll get to see them. It took some pix of Earth as it came around for the slingshot effect using Earth's gravity to get it to Jupiter faster. I think that was in 2013. Junocam is pretty much just for PR purposes though.
Here's the link: https://www.missionjuno.swri.edu/junocam
Jedi and Jade are two Particle detectors, which are the instruments the science guys are interested in. Mostly taking readings of the magnetosphere and high energy particles there. They want that data so they can learn more about how stars form and that kind of thing.
Jupiter and the rest of the outer planets are in a part of the solar system where magnetic fields affect the energetic particles flying around more than the gravitational pull of the sun, so they can get more information about how things work in the areas of space where magnetospheres, are the predominate factor rather than the sun's gravity.
If you wanna know more about that look and listen for news relating to Jedi and Jade.
You'd think for 1.1 billion they could slap a few more gopros on it.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Flight Testing of the S500 Airframe powered by DJi Naza M Lite V1 Flight Systems>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Flight Test 1; (Will it fly)FAILED (NO VIDEO)
Stable flight not achieved
Objective was not met due to flight instability which caused a hard landing that broke #2 prop.
Adjustment of Pitch/Roll/Yaw Gains required.
Pilots notes; Even though flight WAS achieved. Aircraft had VERY poor to no handling and was extremely unstable.
Flight Test 2; (FULL GPS Mode: Basic Hover / Flight Stability) PASS
Hover and improvement in Flight Stability met.
By increasing the Gain value on the Pitch/Roll aircraft became very stable and pilot was able to maintain stable hover.
Aircraft did show sign of GPS drift, but, should be rectified with further Gain adjustment.
Aircraft also demonstrated altitude drop when airframe was rotated(YAW) left or right.
Further Gain adjustment required.
Flight Test #2 Video;
https://youtu.be/aKiZ5mcpflc
Flight Test 3 (FULL GPS Mode, Flight control/Flight Stability testing). PASS
Aircraft demonstrated further improvements in both Handling as well as Stability.
GPS Lock and Hold has improved greatly by adjustments made in the Gain Settings of the Flight Controller.
Aircraft was able to hover with little to no deviation from flight course, even though there was a gusty cross wind.
Aircraft was able to demonstrate two clockwise and counter clockwise rotations WITHOUT altitude loss.
All controls were responsive and light to the touch.
Further Gain adjustments and flight testing recommended.

Oh, this is the highest Ive ever dared to take ANY of my UAV's. How high. No ideal. Should be lower than 400'.

How High A P 51 Mustang Can Go?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sgp5qel1VUk
Bear. I'm not sure just how far my quadcopter can go. I guessing about a mile or two. As far as cost, well, I built this thing trying to save money. That and no one finances UAVs ;) So, I figured building one would be easier and cheaper. WITH the GoPro 3+ Silver that I use. It rounded out to just over $900, but, the camera was $400 and theres FAR cheaper options for the camera. I just happen to have two GoPros so,,,,. I could had saved a couple hundred on it if I'd went with a cheaper transmitter and receiver than Futaba, but, I wanted the best or as near to it as I could get and the money hit just at the right time to get the one I got. That and I picked up a $375 Futaba for $200. Cant help myself, it was a KILLER buy.

§107.31 Visual line of sight aircraft operation.
(a) With vision that is unaided by any device other than corrective lenses, the remote pilot in command, the visual observer (if one is used), and the person manipulating the flight control of the small unmanned aircraft system must be able to see the unmanned aircraft throughout the entire flight in order to:
(1) Know the unmanned aircraft's location;
(2) Determine the unmanned aircraft's attitude, altitude, and direction of flight;
(3) Observe the airspace for other air traffic or hazards; and
(4) Determine that the unmanned aircraft does not endanger the life or property of another.
(b) Throughout the entire flight of the small unmanned aircraft, the ability described in paragraph (a) of this section must be exercised by either:
(1) The remote pilot in command and the person manipulating the flight controls of the small unmanned aircraft system; or
(2) A visual observer.
§107.51 Operating limitations for small unmanned aircraft.
A remote pilot in command and the person manipulating the flight controls of the small unmanned aircraft system must comply with all of the following operating limitations when operating a small unmanned aircraft system:
(a) The groundspeed of the small unmanned aircraft may not exceed 87 knots (100 miles per hour).
(b) The altitude of the small unmanned aircraft cannot be higher than 400 feet above ground level, unless the small unmanned aircraft:
(1) Is flown within a 400-foot radius of a structure; and
(2) Does not fly higher than 400 feet above the structure's immediate uppermost limit.
(c) The minimum flight visibility, as observed from the location of the control station must be no less than 3 statute miles. For purposes of this section, flight visibility means the average slant distance from the control station at which prominent unlighted objects may be seen and identified by day and prominent lighted objects may be seen and identified by night.
(d) The minimum distance of the small unmanned aircraft from clouds must be no less than:
(1) 500 feet below the cloud; and
(2) 2,000 feet horizontally from the cloud.
Whew, I was worried they were going to make me put on a clean pair of tightly whites before every flight.

~S~ Gents. Ya, yet another UAV,,, DANG'ET drone video. Hope you enjoy it. Given a little time and I might get good at this and ya. I know theres a 400' limit to UAV pilot. But, without OSD and onboard FPV, which is illegal for most UAV pilots. It just comes down to guess work. So,,,, mum the word. Oh if your wondering why I included the landing. landing a UAV is most likely one of the hardest thing to do. So, when possible. I rely on Autopilot RTH and land a lot and I find it so very kewl that something I put together from parts a bought on eBay can do that.
Oh, I call this video, "Over the Horizon." Notice the sun drops below the horizon as I descend. And please take in to account I'm not flying FPV yet. So everything I shoot is in the blind. I'm guessing on what I'm shooting.

~S~
Well, so much for my drone. Took it up for a spin and had a major malfunction causing it to kick in to AutoRTH(Return to home). BUT, instead of returning to home. It climbed higher and higher til the motors cut out and down she came. It took about 10 sec. for it to hit terra firma, so it was WAY up there. It landed/crashed about 200 yards from where it took off with a resounding thud. So, much for a years worth of saving and collecting parts to build it. Damage, FPV camera, FPV Gimbal, Flight Controller, one passably two motor controls and motors and a X500 airframe. All destroyed. Maybe one of these days I can afford a nice DJi or Autel X.

aaahhhh.. alittle duct tape and crazy glue.. good as new.. lol :happy-016:
This was my first and last FPV flight. Ive been waiting on a OSD(On Screen Display) which would had told me just how high up I was. What happened is. I lost sight of my bird and without realizing it had climb so high. MUCh higher than Ive ever been and wanted to be. How high. I'm not sure. I could hear it but couldn't see it. So, I kicked in AutoRTH(Return to Home). When I flip that switch, it lost it. Something had to be wrong with the GPS location it recorded as its home point or something. The UAV flips forward on to it back which caused in to automatically shut down the motors and it started to drop. now my UAV weighs in at around 4 1/2 pounds and didn't take long to build up a good bit of speed. Then the CG took over righting the aircraft, thus the motors kicked back in and the Flight Controller realized it was in free fall which kicked in another Failsafe. Full power to all motors. Even with 8 pounds of thrust it still couldn't recover from the fall. It DID however slow it a little. In short. pilot error was the cause of my misfortune. Heres the link to the fun. No music so watch your volume.

Would'nt some old school tech like an emergency parachute be a good idea? So if it got in trouble it would just auto-pop the chute and float down?
DW
They have them, but, their costly and weigh a lot.
how costly?? what are you out so far??? Might be worth it.. as long as the strings didnt get tangled in the props..
Presumably if it had to deploy the chute it would stop the rotors at the same time?

Yea. There's a hurricane hole about 1 day's cruise away and I'm on good terms with the owner there. I carry two anchors, keep about 2 weeks of food plus lots of canned and dry goods as well as a 250 gal fresh water tank, plus 10 -15 gals of drinking water on board, a 5.5 kilowatt generator, MMSI registered 25 watt VHF and a back up VHF - and about a mile of spare line to lash things down if needed. Hurricane damage is 100% covered unless I'm south of Georgia in peak hurricane season there when they lessen coverage by 10%.

how NOT to land a P-51
looks familiar... :drinking-42: :drinking-43:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vLC4QsgGjek
QuoteThis P-51 Mustang, serial # 44-73079, belonged to Bill Dause according to the warbird registry. It was a legitimate Mustang built during the war, which was then delivered to the U. S. Army Air Force sometime in the 40s. As with many of these warbirds, it was sold as surplus in 1958 for pennies most likely, and ended up in Bill's hands. We're not exactly sure if it was him who flew it that day, but either way, it was a rough one. Coming in a bit too hot, the pilot bounced the Mustang off the runway and was airborne again. Trying to correct the bounce, he overdid it a bit and ended up swinging around, going sideways and finally, striking his prop.
Looks familiar.
Ooo, painful to watch. At least the pilot was probobly ok and the kite not a write off.
We've all been there in some kite in IL-2.

Sing along..
Mama told me, when I was young
"Said sit beside me, my only son
And listen closely, to what I say
And if you do this, it will help you some sunny day" Oh yeah
"Oh take your time, don't live too fast
Troubles will come, and they will pass
You'll find a woman, and you'll find love
And don't forget that, there is someone up above"
"And be a simple kind of man
Hm be something you love and understand
Baby be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me son, if you can, if you can"
"An' get your lust from the rich man's gold
All that you need now, is in your soul
And you can do this, oh baby, if you try
All that I want for you, my son, is to be satisfied"
"And be a simple kind of man
Be something you love and understand
Baby be a simple kind of man
Won't you do this for me son, if you can, if you can"
"Boy don't you worry, you'll find yourself
Follow your heart, and nothing else
And you can do this, oh baby, if you try
All that I want from you my son, is to be satisfied"
"And be a simple kind of man
Be something you'll love and understand
Baby be a simple, kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me son, if you can"
So baby, be a simple, be a simple man
Oh won't you do this for me son if you can
Thats an old Skynard tune from 1973

My brother Michael took these vids of me flying my RC P-51. The plane is by FMS an electric using a lipo battery (2600), a 57" wing span with retracts, flaps and the standard throttle, ailerons, elevator, and rudder. It also has working nav lights but they are kinda hard to see in the vids. I get about 6-8 mins on the battery per flight depending on the throttle setting I use.

Blast Off! I saw this moving left to right across the sky. It launched from about 40 miles away from where I am. It came into view about 30 to 40 seconds after lift off and I was able to watch it until a minute or two after the second stage ignited. In the sky it looked a little longer than my index finger at arm's length with the flame being two thirds of it. Didn't know there was a 2 minute delay between the first and second stages. By the time the first stage fuel was used up, my view had changed to looking from behind it and just before it disappeared it looked like a dot about 4 or 5 times bigger than a star. When the flame went out I thought it had been obscured by clouds so I kept watching to see if it would re appear, and it doesn't show in this video, but wow, when the second stage ignited it was way brighter than before. And yep, I could hear it as it was cruising.

As requested, here's a link to my vids, if you can call them that, on You Tube. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC18tjV77qLI8NPFhMRKiVHg? (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC18tjV77qLI8NPFhMRKiVHg?)
Rockhold Creek is the only 360 vid I seem to have left up. I had just left one of my favorite places to dock for a day or two for repair and re supply. There's a retired Nuclear Sub Commander there that runs a great little marina and always finds a place for me to tie up. You don't get to see him or the marina in the vid though, just a quick look around as I got to where the creek channel widens enough to where it feels safe to do something besides steer - narrow channel and shallow enough to run aground just outside the channel markers.
There are two vids that are quick looks at the conditions on the bay that day. And there's one from my home port when an unexpected hail storm came through. Lots of cars were damaged from that one, no damage that I know of to any boats, but man it was loud.
Very Kool BB !!! :)
Glad you liked it, Dave.
I've got a bunch of pictures so I'm thinking about putting together a slide show. Probably be a few days though. Never tried to make a slide show video before.
~S~
Yes,keep em coming.
S~
Well Here it is, A slide show. I tried to caption the pix but they seem to go by a little more quickly in the finished version than when I was putting it together so maybe you can slow it down with the speed setting when you're watching or maybe you'd rather speed it up or not watch it at all.
Anyway, here's the link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtkpAtocbi8 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtkpAtocbi8)
Nice slide show BB !!!
~S~
Yeah nice BB,I enjoyed that!
Glad you liked it and thanks for watching. :happy-119:
If you haven't watched it yet, it's set up for widescreen so it might look a little better if you click the little rectangle in the lower right corner of the view screen on You Tube.
I'm not great at catching the really good stuff that happens because so often the best stuff happens so unexpectedly and I can't have my camera in my hand at the ready all the time, and other times it's because I'm single handed out there and I'm too busy keeping the boat and me safely out of the way of things - like when the navy guys were practicing rappelling out of helicopters onto ships, or when they pull their patrol boat alongside of me and tell me to get out of their practice area. And I'll be the first to say that as hard as I try to take photographs, I most often end up with snapshots. It used to annoy me when I'd take a picture and in my mind's eye when I press the button I think it's really going to capture the moment. Then when I look at it later, nope - missed it by that much. It's one of those things I laugh at myself for being so inadequate at and still enjoy doing.
Very nice!

Really? I thought the D-9 was supposed to be a really hot plane. Is it just slower than the 109K-4? That K-4 seems like a hot rod.

Saw this last night at the local theater...
It's a remake of the Memphis Belle by Wyler using remaster footage and other un-used clips...
It will eventually make its way to HBO... definitely a good piece of history...
Excellent production...the comparison between the old and remastered footage is amazing! Really enjoyed the movie.
Agreed Olds.
First time I've gone to a movie alone.
It was nice to see younger people there asking their older family/friends questions about the history.

Mrs. Woody and I say next to two Vets on Thursday.. to watch Cold Blue//
One was a Vietnam vet, survived the Tet Offensive and he was a third generation military man, he was there in 68'... his Grandfather was in WWI, his Father and two uncles in WWII and he and this two brothers in Vietnam.
The other was a Air Force National Guard veteran... Served in Vietnam and was also deployed in Gulf War I...
Both of them said often that kids these days have no clue about WWII let alone Vietnam... they thought WWII was after Vietnam... YIKES!
That is so true, and so sad that many don't. My boys know full well about it. They also have great respect for all veterans, I've made sure of that.
S! to all who have served, and remembrance for all who didn't make it home.

British warbird pilot, Mark Levy, was part of a 21-airplane formation in the annual airshow at Duxford, England when the P-51 he was flying had a partial engine out. Levy recorded the entire event on a pair of point-of-view video cameras, and he shared the images, as well as his lessons learned, in a candid discussion with Richard McSpadden, Executive Director of the AOPA Air Safety Institute.

I want that plane... Well, that and a Spit and maybe a 38. I know, I didnt say anything about the P51. But, I just dont like that plane as much.
A-20 is a lot of fun.. and she's fast...
The past few days I have been flying the P-39 in AKA WarDogs Coconut server.. once you know how far you can push the engine.. she a blast...
De-winged a Fw-190D on a snap shot and took out a few Panzer IVs from the rear.. mind you, it's not "one shot, one kill" like 46' but she's a fun steed, and US made..
So, with all that said.. Kuban is up for grabs Zulu.. A-20 and 39 and of course the 110 and He-111 for your bomber blood.
I wouldn't bother with the Spit MkV.. kind of a dog, like the P-40 and Mc202.
S! Wood, ya Im planning on getting Kuban asap.
This is becoming a reality at my work -

Found a great video on the P-38. It features Tony LeVier, the top Lockheed test pilot. Lots of good stuff in this video. Enjoy!

Got this off the BOX forum -
"I have a very close family friend who just finished interviewing a RCAF Pilot Harry Hardy who flew a Typhoon for the 2nd TAF.
This is his plane here with the iconic Pulverizer IV nose art.

It would be amazing if we could get that skin in game, he is still quite spry and very involved in telling his story.
I am sure he would be very interested in giving the game a try to fly his old bird.
Here is the link to the interview for those interested."

Thats a sim
No $hit you silly hibernator.
Is that sim players talking or the real LAX pilots and ATC talking?
~S
That is a shadow simulation of real aircraft taking off and landing from Los Angeles airport. Its actual tower to plane communication and letting you see what is really going on at LA airport in a simulation form as it happens. That is what I get from it. I may be wrong, but Pretty cool.

Top 3 fighter pilots during WWII in the Pacific Theater flew P-38's. (Ahem Woody) :cool:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMRuqeLNumo&ab_channel=475thfightergroup
well if the internet board say this.. then it must be so...:
https://ww2aircraft.net/forum/threads/p-38-lightning-vs-p-51-mustang-which-was-the-better-fighter.3867/#:~:text=P51%27s%20were%20use%20din%20the%20PTO%20and%20CBI%2C,the%20fighter%20bomber%20role%2C%20the%20P38%20was%20superior.
QuoteP51's were use din the PTO and CBI, although not until late in 1944. P51's were also used to escort B29's after Iwo Jima was taken.
I would say the P51 was better simply because it was easier to build and maintain.
For the fighter bomber role, the P38 was superior.
personally, the P-51 is supreme.
Do you see modified P-38s at reno these days... no,... Mustangs... yes...
And the cost to produce...
how about what plane was still fighting in Korea?
You are correct Woody, the P51 was not in the fight in the earlier part of the war thus its statistics could not be countered against much of the P38's actions. The thread below explains a lot of the
P38 and P51 involvement. The P51 finally became the go to fighter. The P38 still had its place up to the end of WWII. In Box, I have no doubt that Both the P51 and P38 can compliment each
other in the right conditions. I just wanted to rattle your cage a little as I know your a passionate Mustang Driver. :)
