Default Get Hypnotized! BBC Video:Military Hardware at Airshow.

BBC Video from Farnborough Airshow. July, 2008. Run time 4:45.
I inadvertently watched this full screen, headset on, full volume.
I don't know if it was the sound, the close focus on the aircraft, or both,
but it's beautiful!
Hope you enjoy.

Thanks for the link. Nice flying in some great birds, but the real star of the show was missing. The F-22. I guess that makes sense, though, since I don't think we have those for sale and I hope we never do!

The F22 is under the See Also links towards the bottom of the page.

Good lord, the Eurofighter is sexy.

Nice vid's, I liked where you could see the F18's control surfaces making huge movements to set up a manuever. An amazing amount of strength in those airframes to handle that amount of force!!!
