'Videos of the Day' an ongoing thread

[Gnomey]

I read that as well it was pretty interesting.

Wow - great stuff chaps!

Today's video presentation is the mighty Rhino... interesting commentary too!

 

[Gnomey]

Nice video Roy.

About the C-130- i know it was developed with short-ish takeoff in mind, but my oh my that bird never stops to amaze me. "Hey lets land one on a carrier", "hey lets slap a 105mm howitzer on it and let it blow the crap out of anything". That's a good definition of "adaptable."

 

[Aggie08]

And wow, the Phanton sounds wicked on that video!

 

[Royzee617]

Cheers chaps - I have always been awed by the AC-130 Specter... saw inside one once, the guys said the noise level is unbelievable... and gets worse when they fire the guns!

As for the F4 clip, I would prefer they let us hear the sound of the plane rather than dub muzak over it... probably some technical reason why they do but sometimes it's great most times it is irritating.

Fairly chunky file to download but worthwhile as it is on board with the RAF Sentry.

 

[Gnomey]

Nice video Roy.

 

[Royzee617]

Amazing stuff from this Sikorsky bird.

 

[Gnomey]

Another good video Roy.

 

[Royzee617]

Always one of the highlights of any airshow is the Mighty Mirage 2000.

 

[Gnomey]

Nice video Roy.

 

[Royzee617]

Mid-week moviedrone...F18

 

[Royzee617]

Another one from teh sequence - a bit boring but a pretty chopper.

 

[Gnomey]

Nice video Roy. I like the Sea King.

 

[Royzee617]

Sea Kings are probably the best sight in the world if you are being rescued.

Meanwhile, here is a clip sequence of future helo's and th'Osprey's antecedents.

 

[Royzee617]

next bit is more about tilt wings and then tilt rotors

 

[Gnomey]

Nice videos Roy.

 

[Royzee617]

More on the Hun tomorrow...

 

[JCS]

Nice one of the Mirage there, Roy.
