Something is wrong with the Bristol Fighter I think...:isadizzy:

 

[gimpyguy]

What did YOU see wrong with it, I just viewed it ?

 

[Gousgounis]

I think it is a little shaky...and I dont think it is turbulence!

 

[gimpyguy]

I see a shimmering effect on the rear of the fusilage ONLY, which tells me the video camera's inability to auto-adjust the apature size, when confronted by the stripes

The pilot is flying in close formation with another plane so he is constantly working on the controls. Even in a slight wind and also having in mind the torque effect of the engine you would be working with the ailerons all the time to keep it straight. It's like that in all light aeroplanes, even stable ones like a Cessna, let alone a fighter.
