Highlights Budapest Red Bull Air Race 2008

2008-12-16T07:50:00.000-08:00

Austrian ace Hannes Arch won the Red Bull Air Race in Budapest 2008, claiming his first-ever victory, in only his second season. Britain's Steve Jones was second while compatriot Paul Bonhomme, the current leader, was third after making an error in the semi-finals. The result means Arch is now in second place in the Red Bull Air Race World Championship with three more races to go.

"It is just overwhelming, an amazing feeling," said Arch, who has had a stellar rise from rookie last year to one of this year's championship contenders. "I couldn't believe it. You have to stay focused right until the very end and now I am just really happy." Arch also had the fastest time of the day with 1:03.34 in the semi-finals.

Some 600,000 spectators lined the banks of the River Danube on Wednesday, a Hungarian national holiday, to watch the race under clear blue sunny skies.

Tagging Air Force One

2006-04-25T14:01:00.000-07:00

Tagging Air Force One. This was quickly thought to be a real video shot this past month of Marc Ecko tagging Air Force One with the line still free. It has since been proven to be faked and was done by renting a 747 (?), painting one side to look official, and storing it in a hangar waiting to be tagged.

Ecko acknowledged that his company had rented a 747 cargo jet at San Bernardino's airport and covertly painted one side to look like Air Force One. Employees signed secrecy agreements and worked inside a giant hangar until the night the video was made. Ecko declined to say how much the stunt cost.

"It's not cheap," he said. "You have to be rich."

Interesting way to throw away some money.

UFO - The Best Evidence Ever. This was a TV show that aired on the FX network a few years ago and purports to feature the most conclusive evidence ever of the existence of UFO's. I like though that they opened up the show with a slide saying that there are other interpretations of the video evidence. Kind of ties in with the aviation theme.

This appears to be an older version 737 making what first seems to be a very hard landing. I'm not completely convinced that this video is real as it just seems to have a little bit of fakery in it.

Refueling Accident.

2006-04-04T06:45:00.000-07:00

This excellent video demonstrates both the resilience of the Sea Stallion’s main rotor blades and the ease with which you can end up cutting off parts of your own aircraft if you’re not careful. Look at how that refueling basket flops around in the breeze. Between the rotor wash from the helicopter and the prop blast from the C-130’s engines, I’m surprised refueling a helo in flight works at all.

Thunderbird F16 crash (Pilot's View)

2006-03-06T06:03:00.000-08:00

Pilot error caused a U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds F-16 to crash at an air show on Sept. 14 at Mountain Home Air Force Base, Idaho, the Air Force said on Wednesday. (See below for in-cockpit video of the crash.) The pilot incorrectly climbed to 1,670 feet AGL instead of 2,500 feet before initiating the pull-down to the Split-S maneuver. The F-16, valued at $20.4 million, was destroyed. He ejected when the aircraft was 140 feet above the ground. There was no other damage to military or civilian property.

The view from the ground will be the next posting. It is quite interesting to see the professionalism of the pilot executing the emergency maneouvre when you see the exterior view.

Ever wonder what would happen to a Ford Mondeo and Citroen 2CV that drive behind a 747 at takeoff power? Yeah me neither but it seems the guys over at Top Gear wanted to know what would happen. They launched these cars behind a Virgin Atlantic 747 with two engines at full thrust to answer this question.

Their findings? The Ford Mondeo is the car you want to be in if you find yourself in this situation.

What a great video!
