Thanks!
 
Goodness....

Did you see his final climbout?? Must have been nearly vertical. He really got into the accelleration too. You could hear the fan jets really biting the air, spooling up...

Could you imagine being inside that jet, and you werent fastened in (seat belts).. If you fell down the ilse way, you would have a long way to go to the rear, lol.. eeeks!

lol i would have loved to see the video continue... pulls up, close to stall speed kicks the rudder, and reverses back down for another pass.

what type of tubeliner was that? looked like a 757 to me...?

Go back up to the first post to the movie it says it's a 757.Watch the movie again ,at the end it says 757 goes verticle.
 
Quite a hot performer...considering it is a tube liner. But then again, the plane was designed to carry up to 279 passengers and enough fuel for 3,900 nautical miles. Take that plane, with out the passengers and attendants, only a light load of fuel.....and the plane's performance and speed go up. Sure did have a very aggressive sound coming in low and hot like that.

I don't remember where I saw him, was in the early 80's. Guessing it was probably Fairchild AFB during one of shows. Was amazing indeed. :kilroy:
