Speaking of perfect conditions to catch sonic shockwaves. I was watching a video of someone shooting an M&P15R chambered for the Soviet 5.45x39 cartridge like mine.
They are trying to hit a target at 700 meters with open sights, but check out the air between them and the target when they shoot.

FW 190 goodness!
Here dead we lie, because we did not choose to live and shame the land from which we sprung.
Life, to be sure, is nothing much to lose, but young men think it is, and we were young.

The accompanying text is a bit misleading, this is after all a Flug Werke replica (incorporating some original parts)... BUT, it's still awesome!
As anyone who saw the one fly at Duxford a couple of years ago will testify.
Nice find Kev.

There's a real one being restored in the States with the original engine. I believe a man named Crumpp is in charge!

Not sure if this has been posted before...
One of the P-40's in NZ has fully functioning .50 cals installed and occasionally undertakes live (blank) firing.
I would rather like to see this in the flesh! Somehow though, I think it'll cost me a ticket to New Zealand, because it'll never happen over here in blighty!
Some pictures here:

Annoyingly it won't let me reply with 3 videos...
You can find the airborne live fire here:

Nice find Chris. That would be awesome to see and hear. Just shows that the in-game sounds need a tweak - .50's don't sount like that!
Here's the other vid.
