^ Here is the first episode of a six part BBC series called "Combat Pilot" about new recruits transitioning to becoming fast Jet pilots in Tornado, EF etc.

 

The rest of the vids are up there too. Don't think I have seen it posted here before, so enjoy, I thought it was good. :thumbup:

Tucano or Super Tucano?

 

The first one has some weird parts (maybe is that low cockpit), but looks darn nice still.

 

Super Tucano is truly beautiful in every aspect.

 

Nice lines, and has one hell of a nice sound.

 

You may find it ugly, I find it wonderful :D

Posted
Tucano?! With pylons?! What sort of madmen attach ordnance to a trainer? Stop being so cheap and buy a real fighter :D

 

Well, it used to work, after all :D

 

The standard Tucano was used mainly interception of low-performance aircraft and light attack, before the Super Tucano arrived.

 

EMB-314, MB-326 and EMB-312 as a bonus doing it low (note the awesome lomcevak by the 314):

 

 

Fighter Aviation Tournament 2008 (note: at 2:51, the bomb which scored a perfect hit was dropped by an A-29 of the 2nd/3rd Aviation Group):

 

 

And another one (note the formation low pass at 2:15):

 

 

And Bucic, dear god, the Orlik is horrible! It's just too short! Hell, I stay with the Tucano all the way :D

When was that on? Can't believe I missed it! :doh: Thanks for the tip.

 

Looks much better than that BBC 'drama' they did in the mid 90's with Tornado's flying about in a completely unreal Top Gun style.
