For anyone who's interested in this sort of thing, this is a cockpit video of a US Navy F/A-18 from launch to arrest set to "Magic Carpet Ride". If I wasn't mightily impressed I wouldn't have bothered posting it, but I was

Cat shot with his visor up. That looks like a smart idea. I'm surprised he didn't have his mask off as well...

I guess if you are going to spend that much money on make up and manicures, visors up and gloves off for the video will have to be the order of the day!

I have the original but its 54 meg and my host only lets me have 50. I compressed it to 6 meg to make it a reasonable download size. I do have a short one I found on the net of a F-16 pilot punching out but its pretty well known

I'll never fly for the Blue Angels again (2 meg)

p.s from the outside



Crashed during a demonstration at Mountain Home AB, Idaho. The pilot, Capt. Chris Stricklin, misjudged the altitude required to perform a split-S manoeuvre and started the pull down at only 1,670ft (510m) instead of the required 2,500ft (760m). The error most likely resulted from using an incorrect airfield altitude. Capt. Stricklin ejected only 8/10 of a second, at an altitude of 140ft (42m), before impact

Thumbs up

Some good ones here. Make sure you check out the chopper video set to AC/DC's Thunderstruck. Excellent video.

Also, try this one to watch a very big model B52 prang- very similar to LTCOL Hammond's prang in the US years ago!

There is another good page around but I didn't bookmark it and now I can't find it.

For those of you who have Shareaza installed, try doing a search for "Van Halen dreams", file type "video" - you should turn up the full version of the blue angels film clip

With a decent adsl connection (512k) it will take somewhere in the order of 1 1/2 hrs to download the 64mb file

giddy up!
