Sweper Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 Pretty amazing. The jets are almost flying lower than the spectators. Sombody wrote they are doing it twice a week? Crash, have you been there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash Posted February 5, 2016 Report Share Posted February 5, 2016 Not up on the hill but when I was going to Aberystwth I would hear them but most of the time not always see them. It isnt as busy as it used to be as we now have quite a small airforce and some of the American bases have closed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2. Administrators Jabo Posted February 5, 2016 2. Administrators Report Share Posted February 5, 2016 This is the 'Mach Loop' and there's some spectacular footage about from there. Contrary to name the jets aren't breaking the sound barrier but fast and low? Yep Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BluBear Posted February 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2016 Some fantastic colour footage here chaps.

BluBear Posted March 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2016 Texas flying legends visit st barts. Seen it before but always enjoy it! incidentally the corsair and zero had a coming together last week whilst taxiing. No injuries apart from pride and both aeroplanes needing some structural attention! Poor zero didn't like having its tail chomped off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2. Administrators Jabo Posted March 23, 2016 2. Administrators Report Share Posted March 23, 2016 Some pretty impressive low-fleigening there. Fen will approve I'm sure (despite no P-38) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2. Administrators Jabo Posted March 23, 2016 2. Administrators Report Share Posted March 23, 2016 You know you have a flightsim problem when you look at the real thing and think, "yeah, I'd definitely tweak the deadzone on that" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
