Want to fly a Vampire?

Well, I can’t promise you that, but something close…:

I have just edited a short video from Bergen Airshow ’05 involving
D.H. Vampire FB.6 LN-JET.
It’s all filmed with a minicam located in the cockpit.
I had to do a little fidling with the soundtrack as we did not do any soundrecording on this flight.. , so I had to use the sound from a flight made a few weeks earlier. So,if you think the sound is a bit out of sync,..it is..!

The display was a bit short and is flown with a low profile, but the video gives a view into what it is like to be in the cockpit of this classic jet.
Øyvind Ellingsen is the pilot.

The file is 30Mb, so I guess you shoud have some kind of broadband (or lots of time on your hand) to start the download.

Let us know what you think of it.!

That looks just great!!
Thanks for sharing this great footage.
Amazing to see the turbulnece on one of the low passes.
I just read in the Aeroplane Monthly about the Vamprire, and that they used the airbrakes for toiletpaper bombing. I was wondering if this is done at all anymorre at the odd airshow…
