    Slight thread diversion……In the 90’s, I was sure I saw a Jet Fighter…poss. F16 at an airshow do an inverted loop…i.e start at the top and negative G all the way round.
    Was I imagining it? (Quite possible, I was walking towards my car at the time and it was one of the closing items, I wasn’t paying too much attention).

    My doubt is the pilot ability to sustain neg. G (Even with a suit) for long enough to do this at what would seem (Relatively)
    a low altitude.

    My wife came in to see me 15 minutes ago in tears after reading this story.

    Well, that news item has ruined my day.

    The purps of this crime do not deserve to be alive and most sane people would happily kill them for a sport.

    A loop is always under a positive ‘g’, therefore the engine ‘wouldn’t know’ it was upside-down, also, a loop requires a certain amount of speed to complete, so a dive would normally be needed ‘for the vertical climb bit’. A loop is a very deliberate manouvre and apart from the Wellington incident above, I guess it would be quite rare. The roll however (barrel) is a constant 1g manouvre and I have read of several cases with 4 engined bombers completing it.

    Yes.
    I was confusing myself with Neg. G and being upside down.
    Miss Shilling and her oriface solved the problem I was thinking about.

    Wow!
    It’s a privilege to see those for free!
    What kit are you running?
    And, what exposure settings do you have on Camera (Such as 1/3rd under or bracketing etc……not the F number per se).

    The battery powered fibre optics are a bargain for my modelling, simply removed them from my crackers 🙂

    Hope the models aren’t important.

    These optics will come with the Standard Chinese warranty. 12 minutes.

    Just buy crap from Aldi and PUT YOUR OWN TOY in them! This is far more fun if there are no kids at your Dinner.

    Her indoors got a bargain on some posh ones, there was a nice metallic puzzle which kept nipper entertained for hours.

    It’s all real, cyclist and Blondy. Discussed many a time on many a forum.

    But that isn’t the issue, the issue is that Yahoo need to crank up the news team a bit.
    I already said it looked like a good punt for Scotland…made with a tourist grant or a University grant of some sort.
    If you like this sort of gear, check out the Winged suits flying. Don’t try it with inferior Gannex Macs!

    There may be millions who want a regime change, the question is …who’s brave enough tomention it first?

    South Korea, with US money and US/UK intelligence.
    …which will spill to a China problem (Which is the goal of course).
    That needs sorting now, because we are already leaving it too late. Arms building in China is outstripping crap toy production. Lets hope the Arms are as reliable as the toys and the screwdrivers!!!

    We can only hope for a good New Year.

    This is ancient stuff man. Yahoo are desperate for news seeing as nothing has happened this week.
    And, this fella Strasser is just an imposter or just the producer of the movies. The main man is Blondeau (sp)….he’s the one to check out on Youtoob.
