Country:  | Okay guys, three more videos. This is the first installment of the "multiple warbird" category. This is the F8F-2 Bearcat and the A-1H Skyraider together. Taxi, takeoff, flypast and landing.
Enjoy!

Country: | props on those videos, they're killer! I love crankin the sound on my computer sound system so you can hear the rumble through the house... man I love it! I read an article in the paper today about a b-24 on display close to where i live at a museum, i want to go get some pictures and video if i can. They're offering rides- for $400 a person! i would do it but that's all the money I have. seriously, how cool would it be?

Country: | I haven't taken a ride in one...yet, but it is cool to walk through one of those old birds. The history is amazing and it is really interesting to go to each position and look out to see the field of view they would have had.

Country: | Here is the second of the multiple aircraft series. This one is David Price's P-51 "Cottonmouth" and the CAF's F8F-2 Bearcat. You even get to see the Mustang do a hot-rod taxi. He wouldn't get away with that during normal flight ops, but this was not a normal evening.

Country: | On the fly-by, there was also the SeaFury. I have one more to upload and will probably do it either later today or tomorrow morning. The last clip is 30 Meg, but when you see it, you will see why.

Country: | Okay guys, time for the final installment of the QB-35 video thread. This one is kind of big (31 MB), but it is worth it, I believe. This one is the B-25 Mitchell, Zero and the Hellcat. You get to see, taxi, takeoff and landing. The roar of the hellcat is awesome!
Enjoy it guys!

Country: | Thanks for the tips you gave me Evan on tracking seagulls with a zoom It has been really good practice I've got a X2 converter for my new video cam so it gives me X 40 (around 600mm 35mm equivalent) I followed a light aircraft from my side of the Thames and he was flying along the opposite shore which is about 2 miles away and he filled half the frame so its looking good for next weekend (assuming the weather is ok of course) anything beyond X 40 even with a pan & tilt tripod and any sort of bareably smooth motion seems to be almost impossible I have also been playing with a couple of editing packages which I'm slowly getting the hang of so fingers crossed Evan.
Please keep posting your brilliant clips I luv em all (plus I'm nicking some videoing techniques from you  )
