Re: The Need For Speed
Not to make light of a serious situation but since all the group av geeks are present, does anyone want to speculate on the likelyhood that we will see ROK F-15's testing DRK air defenses in the next 24-48 hrs?
It's a dirty job but I got to do it for 27 years. Thank you.

Anytime you design a plane that can fly without half of its original layout, you definitely have made a winner

Spitfire Gun Cam Footage
The clip title says BoB, but judging from most of the Marks involved, and the kills, it looks more later (42-45) footage. Check out the footage at time index 9:19 , thats Douglas Bader mounting up

Found on the net. Not sure what happened here but I think the pilot needed a change of underwear when he finally managed to land that thing.
