Awesome Video of the Chinook display. One of my all time faves.

Especially the running landing with the nose high followed by the downwind backwards take off. Is the Chinook the only aircraft which can take off going backwards?

I think the Swordfish could have taken off backwards if the stokers could shovel hard enough to get >45 kts along the deck!

I can think of another one that's tried it more than once.

mutley,

Type fous.avi into Google and see what happens....

;)

Don't bother, just use the search function here, there'a a character called Christo using the Private flying forum who has some collection, including that magic low flying mirage one, well worth a look.

Aviation vidclips
 

I was inspired by this thread to have a poke about to see what I could find online and for anyone having any of the popular file sharing proggies like Kazaa, Limewire, etc. there are quite a few interesting (and rare) ones out there. (Just search "Aviation" )

This next bit I have referred to in another thread, but bear with me. Flushed with success yesterday, I put the search argument "Air Tattoo" into Limewire to look for some footage. It came up with nearly a hundred hits for "**** in the air" which looks suspiciously like a film with lots of half footage.

There are some aesthetic gems out there and I hate to admit it, but an American one rates almost as highly for me, as the Swiss and French Mirages. It is called "Where Eagles fly" and it really is a goody.

Thank God for Broadband, eh?

Here's one for all the wannabee's:
