It wouldn't need to come from a streaming server, it *is* a big file, but people can still see it by downloading the whole file and then playing it. Some operating systems and connections will even allow the video to start playing before it all downloads so it'll look like it's streaming.
The offer still stands to PPRuNers - my server is effectively umlimited for space, so if you want a username and password just pm me.

ps. Some people have eased the upload/download process by employing 'download managers' - anybody care to share details about what these are, where to get, and how to use em'?
If you're not on broadband chances are you are not going to be able to download the files in one go, hence the need for a download manager that can resume a download that has been interrupted. So you could download the files that are several hundred megabytes long over several nights, and hang up and reconnect whenever you want to.
The one I use is Star Downloader
The free version 1.42 works fine.
You can then take as long as you like, at times when you dont need your phone line free, to down load the files in several 'bites'.
It is set by default to do 4 simultaneous downloads of different sections of the same file but I found it was better changing this to 1 only or maybe 2. ymmv.
I'm sure there are other programs that do the same thing just as well but that one has worked fine for me on even the largest vids in this thread, downloading from the mighty beast..
Just got a new camcorder, and I was wondering. If I was to get one of those clamps that attaches to the tripod socket, and use that to clamp the camcorder to the top of the empty passenger seat, so as to get some flying footage, would that :
(a) - be a safe way to get some footage when flying solo, and
(b) - not shake around so much as to make the footage useless?
If anyone has any thoughts on this, I'd be interested. I wouldn't think that mounting it to the passenger seat would obstruct my lookout (it is a very small camcorder), but I suspect there would be a vibration issue and there'd be no point.
I see TMPGEnc being mentioned on lots of sites with regard to converting videos for use on Video CDs ... Ive tried that and other programs but ive still had no luck ... anyone have any success so far?
SUCCESS!!!
Ive just managed to get FullThrottle onto a CD and playing on my DVD player! Here's how i did it:
1. I opened TMPGEnc and using the wizard selected Video CD(Not SVCD because i dont think my cd burning program recognises that) then i selected a different file name for the output file and converted it.
2. I now had another video of FullThrottle(fullthrottle02 or something) and i put in a blank CD into the drive and up popped my cd burning program (Veritas Pro). I selected "New Project - Video CD" and followed through the burning wizard ...
3. Insert CD into DVD Player, sit back, and enjoy!
Forgive me as i have only read the first couple of replies. Paulo, what kind of an airplane was that? it looked kinda like a moony or PA28 to me, but i'm pretty sure a PA28 couldn't do those barrel roles I'll have to try someday though
BTW, the runways in the UK look to be in much better shape than the ones here in the USA.
Robins are very common in France, being French and all that, but a bit rarer elsewhere. That said the biggest 2160 operator is in Australia of all places.
There's a few fans here, and I'm sure they'd all agree, Robins could be classified as the BMWs or Audis of the light aircraft world. (Cessnas and Pipers being the Fords or GMs). They look good, fly good and are nicely engineered.
That said the 2160 isn't an aerobatic ace. It's just a trainer, albeit a nice comfy one. There is something sociable about side by side two seaters, but barring the CAPs you do compromise performance for the arrangement.
Thanks for the compliments about the vid - more to with editing than my flying ability I think - lots of mistakes there
