Blue Eagles video

[eurocopter2]

Does anyone have any video footage of the Blue Eagles doing their aerobatics routine?

Please check thier website for details. I have worked with the AAC for 14 yrs and know some guys who have flown with the eagles inc the current boss, i will see if i get my hands on something for the forum, no promises though.

you will need real player and the quality and size are not brilliant, shame really they are an excellent display team.

I just received a few videos from Tourist, all very large DVD files which need a lot of compression work. This one (http://www.helicopterservice.com.au/photos/pprune/Videos/) of the Blue Eagles is too good to keep, so I've managed to get it down to (only) 99mb for the time being. Maybe put the computer on download overnight, but it's worth it :ok:

[RotorDompteur]

Great footage!!

Thanks for sharing - definitely worth the wait.

I can only get 59 mb (2:38 min) and have tried twice; any clues why?

[Phoinix]

Great video. Very impressive! Any other helo display team video?

PS: Works fine with me.

DCVC,
Maybe in your computer settings, or your ISP may have a download cutoff?

[The Nr Fairy]

Or you may simply be running out of disk space - if you're running IE, check the free space available to the Temporary Internet Files folder.

I suspect the ISP scenario (not private!)

Thanks; the first 2 minutes and 38 seconds are great anyway!

i managed to download the whole thing but it won't play due to wrong codecs on windows and realplayer.
What are other people viewing this with?

[Joker's Wild]

Same here, wrong codecs and I REALLY want to see this clip!!! :ok:

[Vfrpilotpb]

Downloaded the lot this AM, watched it at once, to good for words, sadly lost the bally thing trying to save to main prog*@+%t. But thank you for a good vid

Great video footage!!

...but it appears to be stretched out horizontally?? It it suposed to be this way or is something not configured right on my PC??:confused:

Regards, SD..

[Aser]

Nice clip!

Joker's Wild:
I had problems with the claud.ax codec crashing my windows media player.
It's a Cyberlink PowerDVD audio codec , so with the PowerDVD player I can watch the clip.

skydriller:
Yes strange video size...


It would be nice to have a video from the spanish Aspa Team to link here also :*

Just seen the vid and i must it was pretty impressive. I never got to hitch a ride during the displays but i did get to partake in the massed smash at m/wallop a few times.
I needed an mpeg2 codec to play this on media player or real player you can download it free if you need it here.

:ok:

[helidriver]

I can't seem to download from the link. I end up with the basic start page, double click and, and , and..................nothing!:(

Any thoughts,

Regards, helidriver

Helidriver,

Select the Blue Eagles file, right click, and select "Save target as", then download to your selected directory.

The video is widescreen 16:9 format, and anyone with Windows Media Player V10 shouldn't have any trouble with codecs.

VFR pilot,

Peter, the file may still be in your Temporary Internet Files: Documents & Settings, your user name Directory, Local Settings, Temporary Internet Files directory. There may be some sub directories, you'll have to have a search thruogh them. Good luck ;)

John, any chance you can host it on a faster server - my broadband connection will take 1.1mbps but that video is coming through at 10kbps.

[Bravo73]

Crab,

John's server should be fine. Mine's managing to come through at 78kbps...


Regards,

Edited to add: Try downloading 'Download Accelerator Plus'. It can really help to speed things up...

[jbrereton]

Thanks for the video really good. Hopefully I will get to see them one day.

I should imagine that if they include shots from inside the Lynx, it could be quite popular.

I almost had a chance to crew for John Carr on a display practice in the Lynx back in '88, but since I was on my Lynx conversion, the powers-that-be thought I might pick up a few tips.
