I believe those French air force movies have been posted a few times before. Doesn’t hurt seeing them again though 😉

I’m always amazed by the agility of gliders at low altitude. Last year at Old Warden a glider did three loops in a row at very low altitude. Very impressive!

Now here’s another nice low pass… I think these guys wanted to copy the famous Spitfire “F me!” video 🙂 I guess they succeeded!

The B-52 and the carrier

Seeing as it is on all the other boards, we should not be left out!

My copy of this came with the following words.

Mark

“This picture is real because I witnessed this flyby personally.
This picture was taken in the spring of 1990 as we started are
deployment to the Persian Gulf.

I was up in the “tower” with the air boss as the Viking squadron rep
for the launch/recovery and these Buff drivers (2 of them) called that
they were at 8 miles for a flyby. They had been ‘orange air’ for a
big war – at – sea exercise we were doing When they called 5 miles
the boss said “we don’t see you” and we heard back “look low”.
Out on the water we saw this smoke trail first, (the planes merged
with the color of the water) at about a 1-2 miles we could break them
out and the two buffs came by at 20-30 feet off the water splitting
the ship at about 350kts. Then they pulled up and did a big plan
form 180 and said “do you want to see that again” – The air boss said
“hell yea” so they went back out an did it again.

It was the only time in my 20 year career that I have seen any
services jets purposely flying below flight deck level.”

Ah, the master at work with his usual panache

Would that be the late Bud Holland by any chance?
