I especially like the guy who faces the approaching plane and dosn't even flinch - my anus would have prolapsed at about 200 metre range and I would have been about 2mm high on the ground at 100 metres - nerves of steel !

Those flyboys sure seem to have lots of testosterone to spare !

I especially like the big tanker/transporter (?) Brass balls!

Not quite as cool as the jets but I am flying the one one the left side ...

One of my best friends (RIP) learned to fly a rotor aircraft and said it kept him "BUSY"! You cannot goof off or do anything but concentrate on controlling the aircraft.

Excellent!

 

A Spitfire flying low at full chat is an awesome sight. There is an airfield not too far away near Selby that has a historic flight based there, and if you camp nearby you can watch several different types of WW2 fighter planes throughout the day.

 

Strange that a deadly weapon of war can also be an object of beauty.

I dunno, having been a helo crewman most of my career (both heavy lift -53's and later HH-1N's), I'd say it's at least a tie! We had HH-1N Hueys in the SAR team I flew with, and the sound of that thing beating the air from across a valley at altitude gets me all misty-eyed

I love that spit footage, it's a classic.

I took the tenni over to the uk for the weekend, and got royally pissed on, we spent Saturday at the fairford airshow, and I finally got to fulfil a lifes ambition by seeing a Vulcan fly. Spectacular.

I don't know why military aircraft are sexier then civilian ones, they just are.

Certainly there's not a lot sexy about the A340s I fly for a living.

You know this 'There's absolutely no cause for this alarm - the wings are not on fire ...' sketch?

The Vulcan is monstrous even when it just stands around cold, makes me wish to have a black smoke generator adapted to my Ex-Box

Low enough?

You can now build a whole replica full size full power Spitfire from an expensive kit:

All you need is a motor - DIY V12

Update: I found something similar here: http://www.randomexploits.com/etc/b17/b17.htm Still seems to be the land of no limits
