P-51 Mustangs PowerPoint Slide Show


This is a great video clip honoring P-51 pilots of WW-II.  It's focus is on one pilot's story and becomes even more personal by bringing his grand kids into the feature.  It's well done and has some great clips of one of the classic fighters of all times.

Received the following emails recently, which have been circulating

the internet for the past couple of years:


Subject: Russian Super Jet- Su30MK


An amazing aircraft !!!!

The U.S. has nothing comparable! This is a Russian SU30MK with vectored thrust and canards. As you watch this airplane, look at the canards moving along side of and just below the canopy rail. This is a video of an in-flight demonstration flown in the Russian SU30MK fighter aircraft. You'll not believe what you are about to see. The fighter can stall from high speed, stopping in less than a second. Then it demonstrates an ability to descend tail first without causing a compressor stall. It can also recover from a flat spin in less than a minute. These capabilities don't exist in any other aircraft in the world today !
Take a look at the video with the sound up. This aircraft is of concern to both U.S. and NATO planners.

Subject: USAF F-22 Raptor

 This is an excellent video.  Because of security they still couldn't demonstrate all of it's capabilities!
 
 Fast ("super-cruise*) and stealthy, and integrated avionics are cool, but what's really impressive is the F/A-22s low speed stability and maneuverability.  In the late 40s and to early 60s aeronautical  engineers were going nuts on how to shape intakes to handle both subsonic and super-sonic air flows, without stagnation or compressor stalls.  Supersonic in itself was   a big challenge because you had to use shock waves to slow the intake air mass to sub-sonic before it hit the compressor blades, or they would stall.  The engineers figured it out, but  the solution was keeping a lot of air going in the front end to make sure all the hot air kept going out the back end.  As you watch this Mach 2 airplane suspend motionless in air and do tail slides, be aware of the truly amazing performance of the engines and intakes engineering. 
 
 Some used to think the Russian Su-27 / Su-31 Cobra maneuver was the epitome of 3rd- to 4th-generation fighter maneuverability.   That snap maneuver doesn't hold a candle to what this two-dimensional vectored-thrust fighter with fat independent horizontal stabs can do at low speed.  There must be far more tricks up its sleeve in the high subsonic dogfight speed range.
 
 The video is about 5 minutes long but the last 30-40 seconds are priceless.
