umm... not quite, but this was pretty neat
these two bi-planes were AMAZING! & the clouds of white smoke at the end on the runway are from an old 57 chevy pickup that's been modified a little http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi..._Jet_Truck.jpg |
oldie, but a goodie

oh yeah, i never thought of it that way. that does make sense now. the cold side drains the oil & the hot side drains the antifreeze!

:laughabove:
...at least the drip is fixed and the wife is off my back... Wonder how that MGW install is going...:popcorn: |

Poor Chris....all alone in the garage...attached to his car.... |
Quote:
but he is definitely attached to his car - like we all are and besides... he's probably teaching his kids how to install it so he don't have to :laugh: |

^^i've seen that one around for a while, so i doubt that's been anytime lately. i've still yet to see the Thunderbirds, but i'm told that their show kills the angels

Either one is always a blast to watch.. Hmmmm hope the MGW isn't causing problems... May need to call in IRPQ to help... |
yeah, Joe's theory is that he got his hand stuck in there... i told him it sounds like IRPQ has already helped enough!

I just saw the San Antonio tag in the photo and was wondering... One of the most amazing things I've ever seen was the replication of Pugachevs Cobra, a maneuver originated by a Russian Pilot in a mig... There was a naval pilot that was able to duplicate it in an FA-18.... I'll see if I can find a video of it... Here one of a Russin aircraft, couldnt find one of the FA-18 |
watch at the 1 min mark and the end

I miss my airplaines...:( |
I love the F-22s...I heard they're all being decommissioned, though? Too expensive or some crap like that....apparently we're not fighting enough to justify the world's best fighter jet...:rolleyes:

Holy $#!t.. I can't believe I waited this long to get this installed.... the difference is unreal... :headbang: Quote:
It is not difficult at all. there are a couple sticky points but really it's pretty straight forward. even the last step of leveling the shifter isn't difficult. Just check for clearance and you are good to go. I had the old shifter out in less than a hour taking my time... About that time a friend came over and we had the MGW on in about the same time. with us watching and rewatching MGW's video's I'd saw we took 2.5 hours to get it done. Quote:

You really need one of these. ;) Quote:

yeah, the 22 in that vid looks like he's just doing a vertical climb as opposed to what looks to be a dogfight maneuver to get in behind a tailing opponent.
|
see 1:59 sec ;)

Congrats, Chris!! MGW is also adjustable, isn't it?
Gotta love thrust-vectoring!! Gives a whole new level of control to just about anything that used to rely on separate systems to adjust course. :headbang: I tried to explain this to my middle school kids with regards to rockets...but they just couldn't wrap their minds around it. :laugh: |
here's a good cobra video
