Jag Video Clips

I recently put together a video (set to the usual punchy soundtrack) of RAF aircraft in action but it was pointed out that it was sadly lacking any punchy Jag stuff.

I'd be grateful if anybody with digitised clips they'd be willing to offer would drop me a PM.

Cheers

Punchy Jag Stuff? I'm sure somebody will be able to get you a clip of a Jag taking off in greater than 25 deg, or with more than one bomb on! That's about as punchy as they get!

Oooh get you.

Now now Casper, that wasn't very nice was it!
It takes a very brave man to strap himself into a Jag and coax it airborne.
As for the clips, I shall see what I can do. I have an awesome Squadron DVD from my time on the OCU and I shall see if I can manage to download and send it and, trust me, it is very punchy. Alot more interesting than watching a poncey Fag Chariot or one of those weird single engine hover machines.

"""weird single engine hover machines""""

I think they are called "Dysons" ?

Casper, somehow I just knew I would get that reply.....

I remember seeing the Jags off in Incirlik, watching them disappear below the sightline at the end of the airfield and hoping that they would reappear airborne before too long!

Aah...halcyon days!

Sorry Bob, couldn't resist it! Best I get an early night with a glass of milk and read my new Dyson manual.

Get hold of a copy of the old video 'Watchdogs of Bruggen', I would suggest!

From the days when we still had half an air force...

Looking for something a little more up-to-date BEagle! Ex Magic Carpet or Incirlik anyone?

Thanks all

Spotting...

I have restored the RAFO beatups from the 80's and have some more recent material from the region if you are interested PM me. If you hunt through these forums you will find the ones I posted as there was a RAFO and Jag thread running a while back. I will try to bring it back to the top of the pile for you...

Yippee Ki Yi Yay!

With apologies for bringing my own thread back to the top...although there were a few replies I haven't got my hands on any Jag clips yet.

Time is beginning to press - any help gratefully received.

Cheers
