Oh, hard call... Saabs, The Vulcan, B-17, Harriers, Hunters.... But, I have to go with The Vulcan.

So hard to find the original owners of air show footage. I always end up seeing tons of videos and shorts from people using footage like this. Wish people would stop doing that so you and others could get the recognition they deserve for the work they did.

The V-22 with the "weird" glowing blade-tips, that's actually quite common on rotor-wings... Low-light ground safety-feature, and also for formation-flying in the dark: blade-tip lights.

If you look at the underside of the ECM pod at the tail you will notice a slightly fuzzy small lump. An external switch is mounted here, in the cockpit it's indicator light will be green, if it turns amber/yellow the the tail is about to touch the ground, if it turns red, then the operating arm of that switch is likely to be embedded in the fuselage of the aircraft (Naughty Skipper!) - I only ever saw that happen once in our Squadron (101 Squadron RAF Waddington)

Awesome footage. The Vulcan is a favourite of mine. I lived next to the RAAF base in Laverton Victoria in 1965. A Vulcan (XH480) did a low level flypast, and to a 7yr old boy, it looked like it was about to fly into my front door! Still remember the Vulcan "howl".

@268wrighty Ай бұрын

Great stuff, lovely video. Gotta love the SAAB Draken and the Rotor blades on the Osprey in the dark were well groovy. Here's a fun fact, the pilot of the Vulcan is Tommy 'gingernob' Becklethwaite and apart from being quite drunk he only has 3 working fingers, what a gift to the nation he is.

From 1976-80 I was stationed at Barksdale AFB ,La and we hosted the International Bombing Competition. I always loved when the Brits would arrive with the Vulcan and Victors. The Vulcan always put on an impressive performance. That big bird is surprisingly agile for the size it is. It’s one of the planes I loved watching at the annual air show. A shame they are all gone.

@restojon1 18 күн бұрын

An old RAF Officer told me a fantastic story from one of those competitions when we sent the Vulcan across the pond. I can't recall if it was him, or he overheard it but apparently two very high up "Top Brass" were monitoring the competition and the American Officer was heard to say "those Brits have got themselves a sports bomber and we're flying a bomb truck" referring to the B-52's. I always found that amusing. Horses for courses I say. If you want a few bombs putting somewhere very accurately and very quickly. Sports Bomber. You want to remove a location from the map. Bomb Truck. 🇬🇧 🤝🇺🇸 Long live the special relationship.

That little Italian boxcar of a C-27 lost a LOT of altitude doing that roll. Not really a thing to try for fun... That pilot understood that and went UP before trying it, but a newbie might not... Reminds me of the story of a Tutor student-pilot in the RCAF in the 80s (or maybe 70s). He went to his dad's farm, close by Moose Jaw, Sask. and tried flying inverted. He pulled up on the stick to go up, but it meant DOWN in his reverse attitude. plowed straight in, right in front of Daddy... Sad day for that family.

No one who knows what they are talking about would say "C-47 Dakota"! There is no such thing! American C-47s are called "Skytrains" and Brit/UK versions are "Dakota C1 (2,3,4 etc)". Basic goofs like that, and being too lazy to take ten minutes to edit out bad footage (out of focus, subject blocked, etc.) are why I hit "Dislike" and don't sub.
