Country:  | About the C-130- i know it was developed with short-ish takeoff in mind, but my oh my that bird never stops to amaze me. "Hey lets land one on a carrier", "hey lets slap a 105mm howitzer on it and let it blow the crap out of anything". That's a good definition of "adaptable."

I had never seen an aircraft completely disintegrate in the air the way this Me-110 did..."

| Cheers chaps - I have always been awed by the AC-130 Specter... saw inside one once, the guys said the noise level is unbelievable... and gets worse when they fire the guns!
As for the F4 clip, I would prefer they let us hear the sound of the plane rather than dub muzak over it... probably some technical reason why they do but sometimes it's great most times it is irritating. | |

Fairly chunky file to download but worthwhile as it is on board with the RAF Sentry. | |
