GC1993 Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 Whilst doing anything not to revise for my exams I stumbled across this, the lead almost gets blown off! Enjoy :)
joey45 Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 Daaaaaaaaaaamn The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

ED Team f-18hornet Posted May 18, 2014 ED Team Posted May 18, 2014 Very nice. I wish Hornet was released this year or at least in a beta stage. AMD Ryzen 9 3900X, GeForce RTX 2080Ti, 32 GB DRAM, HOTAS TM Warthog, FSSB R3 Lighting, MFG Crosswind, Win 10 Pro
dumgrunt Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 Nice find, dont worry you are not the only one procrastinating at the moment! I was going to say that doesnt look like Williamtown or Amberly. I dont think its albatross either. Definitely somewhere on the east coast but. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
aaron886 Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 I'm going to say that's windy, but not 30-40 knots. Maybe 25.
IvanK Posted May 19, 2014 Posted May 19, 2014 (edited) The wind on the day was being reported as 30-40knots nearly all cross. This was at an air show south of Sydney. Only about 3 brave aviators ventured into the luft due crosswind another brave soles attempt just prior to the Hornets departure: One blown tyre the result. Edited May 19, 2014 by IvanK
Oesau Posted May 19, 2014 Posted May 19, 2014 Yep - was a wild and windy day which in terms of watching an airshow was disappointing
javelina1 Posted May 19, 2014 Posted May 19, 2014 Wow, now that's incredible. (In a BMS training session, they have a cross wind landing with the F-16, really scares the s*** outta ya coming in.... 30 knots or so) But I give it to those Aussie pilot's, nice job with getting those birds off the ground. :thumbup: MSI MAG Z790 Carbon, i9-13900k, NH-D15 cooler, 64 GB CL40 6000mhz RAM, MSI RTX4090, Yamaha 5.1 A/V Receiver, 4x 2TB Samsung 980 Pro NVMe, 1x 2TB Samsung 870 EVO SSD, Win 11 Pro, TM Warthog, Virpil WarBRD, MFG Crosswinds, 43" Samsung 4K TV, 21.5 Acer VT touchscreen, TrackIR, Varjo Aero, Wheel Stand Pro Super Warthog, Phanteks Enthoo Pro2 Full Tower Case, Seasonic GX-1200 ATX3 PSU, PointCTRL, Buttkicker 2, K-51 Helicopter Collective Control
aaron886 Posted May 19, 2014 Posted May 19, 2014 Oof! You can really see it in the trees on that Sabre landing video. I take it back! Maybe not quite as bad for the Hornet departures anyway?
