For the serious NERDS – Mossie helmet camera

As it says on the tin – a helmet camera inside the Mossie during a bit of formation flying. NOTE: This video contains graphic cockpit material with lots of engine noise – Parential Guidance adviced! 😀

This ain’t for nerds. It should be in every high school from Britain to New Zealand.

Thanks for posting those links ErrolC! They make a great read alongside the wonderful photos that Gavin took.

Did mosquitos actually have that beeping noise when the throttles were pulled back or is it a modern safety addition?

That certainly wasn’t the attitude of the photographer (Gavin Conroy)!

Also see his comments on the ‘convertible’ Trojan used for an earlier shoot.

It is amazing to think that we’re normally over the moon about a flying Spitfire, and in this case it is ‘just the camera plane’ :rolleyes:

Great video, thanks for posting!
