I don't think the HUD is from F-16...:smilewink:

 

That is a mixture of two different videos. the HUD video I'm pretty sure is from a CT-155. That is most definitely not F-16 "bitching Betty"

CT155 Hawk, 155202, May 14th, 2004

 

Following a touch and go as part of a training mission, at about 70 feet AGL and accelerating through 239 kias, the aircraft was hit by a bird, which was ingested in the engine intake, causing an immediate loss of power. The instructor pilot (IP), flying from the backseat, initiated a climb to trade airspeed for altitude, and told the student to prepare to abandon the aircraft. This is an important positive point to emphasize, as the front seater of a training aircraft is usually a student, most of which having a low level of flying experience. An early warning may greatly help in preparing the student pilot (SP) for a successful ejection.

 

CT155 Hawk, 155202, 14 May 2004

 

As the aircraft descended through about 1000 feet AGL, and after confirming the student was ready, the IP initiated the ejection. Both pilots survived the ejection, but the IP was seriously injured and the SP received minor injuries. The aircraft crashed in a farmer’s field, about one mile north of 15 Wing, and was destroyed.

 

The CT155 Hawk is essentially equipped with the same SJU 9/10 (Mk 10L) ejection seat as the CF188 Hornet currently. One important difference with related systems is that the canopy, instead of being ejected, is shattered in place via a miniature detonation cord (MDC).

Here is a link to the story, If I'm correct that is.

To whom it may concern,

Thank you for you patience.

USAF F-16 West Demo Team in cockpit video.

Check the 9G turn, the pilot is looking around like nothing is happening. If it was me I would be somewhere by the Rudder pedal dissolving due to the G :D

Lets compare it to the Dutch demo

Note how little the side stick controller need to move for max flight surfaces deflection.

Propaly, instead of that rubbish boom thingy.

The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

Ouch! Nasty damage there caused by a bird, I thought A-10A was a bit tougher than that, especially it's leading edges.

It is though, but be amaze how much damage a bird could do. I have seen titanium engine blades bent in half by a bird strike, not even I big one, the estimated it was a five pound bird. The worst this about bird strikes is that we (mechanics) have to try to collect as much from the bird as possible, that is nasty work, picking bird guts.
