Country:  | I'm not sure what you mean by adjust the type of WMV, but you can tell it to use variable bit rate (which is what I use for posting), low bitrate, which is pretty poor quality or high, which is nice, but large. You also have mpg and a few others. I don't remember for sure, but I don't think it can do quicktime formats.
I like this one the best of the ones that I have tried, but I will warn you that it is a resource hog. You need a good processor and lots of memory. I am using a 3 Ghz machine with 2 Gig of RAM and it's just fine, but I have not attenpted anything with less horsepower.

Country: | I am not sure what the minimum requirements are, I just know it works for me. It may work well on a less powerful machine, I just haven't tried to.

Country:  | I just watched the videos, evan. They're excellent. I loved the B-25. I was wondering, how do they get these birds around the world? Are they shipped?

Country: | It is not often that they move them around once they are established in an area. A majority of the aircraft at Camarillo for the show were from California or the states next to it.
But I have seen photos of the Martlett wrapped in plasctic with the wings removed when it was temporarily sent to New Zealand years ago. It's rare, but they do it sometimes.
As far as how they get to where they are depends on a number of things. Old aircraft that have been recovered in remote locations are carefully disassembled and shipped in crates to where the restoration will take place. A good example of that is one of our Zeros. It was found on an island in the 1960s, disassembled into manageable pieces and trucked to an airfield to fly back to the US for a long process of restoration.
Glad you enjoyed the videos, I should be able to get some more up this weekend.

Country: | I ask because I noticed the Skyraider. I don't know if it's the same on I saw in Duxford. On the same continent at least you could fly them from place to place. But...as was the problem in WWII, these aircraft can't fly the Atlantic. Well...the Mustang, B-17 and P-38 could over Iceland, Greenland, Canada, America route.

Country: | The skyraider down here was not at Duxford, but the paint scheme is pretty much the same. There are a couple around here that have that same paint scheme. They were both used for "Flight of the INtruder" and "We were soldiers".

Country: | Not alot actually, but there are a few out there. How many total I am not sure. But the one in my pictures and video is the last A1H that still flies. I will post a video of it doing its manuevers and the HUGE dive brakes that plane has. The H model is th eonly one with those big dive brakes, one out of the bottom and one on each side.

Country: | Good morning all! Time once again for another installment.
First up is a formation of Nanchang CJ-6As. These are essentially Chinese built versions of the Yak-52. They say that they are fairly inexpensive to operate and fun to fly. It seems there are more and more around lately, so that must be so. These are all locally based, either in Camarillo or at Santa Paula.
Second clip was my weekend favorite, the A1H Skyraider, flown by Skyraider Bob. He is a really nice guy too. I chatted with him quite a bit on saturday morning. Watch closely and you will see him deploy the humungous dive brakes in a few passes. This is the last A1H still flying.

Country: | Yep, the door on the bottom is most noticeable, but there are also 2 more, one of each side. Unfortunately, I didn't get a good video shot of that. Here is a shot taken by Brian Lockett of it.
