  • i wouldave not turned the plane like that the wing couldave clipped the other plane... i mena i know hes a fighter pilot but its not that hard to predict where the plane is flying and what manoeuvre to take, as u can see the other pilot is flying straight and just above, so a dive wouldave been much better.

  • @L00peey We don't want to hear what you would've done. First of all your not a pilot, second its called an instinctive reaction, it wasn't a decision he had a lot of time to think about. Thirdly, he's on a low level sortie so if you dive towards the ground at 300ft your probably going to crash with the rates of decants involved. They weren't visual with the Tucano until the last second so had no time to predict its direction and speed. Don't comment on things you don't understand.

  • @jonny96 mate ur talking shit i dont wanna hear it. go write a book.

  • @L00peey Your the one posting your opinions on something you don't understand! Fail

  • @jonny96 fail. i understand it. you on the other hand are talking shit. now fuck off? there is no way he wouldave hit the ground or come close if he did a little dive. now get off my dick

  • @L00peey That whole comment was a fail as your obviously under 10 years old. Or just extremely immature to leave such a pathetic comment. You don't understand, trust me! The whole point about this vid is that they didn't see the tucano, the evasive manoeuvre the pilot took was more of a flinch than a conscious thought, but as i've said you obviously don't understand and just come back with insulting remarks to hide your stupidity! Fail (again)

  • @jonny96 ok mate w/e u say im not going to have a flame war over the internet you fucking goof ball nerd, now gtfo my nutsack.... so fucking lame go get a life.

  • @L00peey Goof ball? Haven't heard that since ''saved by the bell!'' I have a life thanks, check channel for full details!

  • @jonny96 boring.

  • its kinda ridicules that everything military related on youtube gets bombed by people that hate america/canada/britan....

  • For a moment the Tornado pilot must have thought he was an AMRAAM or Aim-9 

  • fucking niggers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • They were on a perfect intercept there apart from the height!

  • Why bank right and extend you wing to be hit when a little bit of descent (negative flight attitude) could solve the problem?? I guess it was just reaction, scary tho. wouldn't wanna be in his shoes.

  • It aint the tucano its the pilot, he should have looked out better

  • stupid tucano!!

  • dembasses needa stay away from low level military training routs

  • @gypsykingg dembasses? aha takes one to know one then.

  • Let me tell you that that turns the stick shaker on for about 2 minutes. Although your feet are rattling on the pedals so hard that you don't notice it.

  • it sort of make you wonder do any of these FUCKING IDIOTS know what they are doing, chocs away old boy

  • Do the RAF have Super Tucano's? I don't think they do! Also, radar coverage wouldn't cover low level but would a TCAS or traffic collision avoidance system work down low?

    Just a thought:-)

  • really a grob

    thats a comfort to us in the atc

  • @wrumarty it isn't a grob, what r u talking about! it's clearly a tucano!

  • Woops they probably saw each other i think if you see the tucano just pulled up. But obviously the tornado pilots are going to quick to see it. Happens quite a few times actually i see a tornado nearly hit a grob before.

  • i bet that made the tucanno pilot jump!!!!

  • Possibly could have clipped him with the fin if it wasn't for the quick bank!

  • BLOODY HELL! ! that was close.

  • As usual the primary contribution to the topic is from fellow Brit's, but whom have no idea what they are talking about and have a major inferiority complex with Americans. As for why the Tornado pilot did the turn he did, draw it on some paper and it will all make perfect sense to you. As for radar, the Tornado GR4 has 2 radars, both are for air to ground operations, not air to air.

  • Loving the good old British spirit of ripping people for their mistakes haha! fucking clowns, this pilot saw and evaded the tucano. Obviously it was dangerous but he was obv well trained to deal with it so stop shooting down our own guys with your STUPID comments. Btw there is no ATC control in open air space so thats why they weren't warned previously.

  • and the air traffic control ws... where?

  • Most of the low level flying areas belong only to the military, and although there may be civilian radar coverage there, it is most often not employed because only military traffic operates in the area. We have several in Canada and the US. ATC simply says, "Stay OUT"

  • There is no such thing as air traffic control when it comes to low-level military operations.

    The whole point of low-level flying is to evade radar in the first place.

  • @bryUK it's the job of the fighter controller to prevent these situations from happening...

  • hmm, thinking about it, the two occupants of the tornado could have seen him before, but then again ATC screwed up big time, because they should have given a traffic alert as the planes got within a mile of eachother.

  • Clown.

  • Comment removed

  • If you lot can do a better job....STEP UP TO THE PLATE!

  • just like I said 2 hours ago

  • Wow, talk about your social comentarys!

  • Moshin77, stop been a tard or ill block you from commenting

  • mohsin77 go throw a shoe at some1 or soming mate we really dont care what your saying

  • indeed, nobody gives a shit, especially on a friendly video website. go find a forum for like minded ppl where you can comment to your hearts consent.

  • Moshi 77 you are a dopey one aren't you , your ancestors killed loads of children and old people over the years also...so who cares....it is what we do....next you'll be raving on about the jews......you must be at home, with no job , living off the government you hate so much....nice one....while your family brings drugs into this country....to kill our children....I say all is fair in love and war....my advice, cheer up

  • Who are they meant to be protecting us from??

    They have created more hate in the Muslim world and will breed more terrorists by their illegal war :/

    If they really wanted to protect us they would concentrate on actually trying to combat terrorism by winning hearts and minds. And you won't do that by killing lots of Afghani and Iraqi kids -_-

  • mohsin77, why the fuck wud we want to be winning the hearts and minds of people who would glady bomb the shit out of the west because we have different beliefs? 3rd para, 2006 faced tabilan who made crowds of women and childern run at british positions cus we knew we wudnt shoot them, they didnt give a shit

    sorry to sound like this but it really pisses me off when f***ing afghans and iraqis think "theyve done nothing wrong"......

  • @Robaaaayy youre tarring them all with the same brush. which is perhaps largely unfair. FYI Iraqis and afganistanis largely didnt know where the UK and USA were on the map. and theyre completely incapable of invading our country, if you think the british havent employed 'unfair' tactics in war think again. Not all muslims want death to the west. but its the minority who do that we are fighting, not the entire country.

  • cheer up Mohsin77 we're all as bad as one another....so stop raving on like an old women ....you're just boring...and your site sucks also....this isn't to say you're not on the money with what you say, I agree....I don't think youtube is the place for your arguments.....go find a nice little angry website to moan on with your fellow brothers...and remember ... we are watching you !!!!

  • banking Right was a bad move as the left wing sticks up toward the plane. pilot errors all over this

  • good video BUT id still rather watch being charlie sloth

  • Wow double fail both planes have radar.

  • only tornado

  • Was it a tucano or a super tucano? If it was a super tucano it has radar.

  • Look around, its the Tucano

  • RAF only have tucanos and there arent that many civillian super tornados around the UK either

  • u think thats mad watch my vids

  • Why? They're not worth opening let alone watching thru - what are you on dude? Been smokin that stuff.... tch

  • I don't know. First submarines now this. Where's our taxes going again?

  • CDO's.

  • i guess them lot never heard of something invented decades ago... its called a RADAR, maybe they should take an occasional peak at it ;)

  • Tornado GR4 has ground mapping radar not air to air radar so it wouldn't have shown a great deal to be honest.

  • Tucano not Tuccano

  • nah ATC don't really care that much if they only training. Fair enough landing

  • i love the way they're so calm could you amagine if tht was american!

    "aaaaaaah !Holy S*** what the f*** was he doing that was ausome!" thats what a yank would say

  • you might attempt to disguise your inferiority complex, or failing that, at the very least seek to make it less obvious!

    I'm embarrassed on your behalf!!

  • they would also say "I thought I was gonna die" lol

  • First off, you're a douchebag

    Second off, let me put you in a cockpit and have another aircraft pop in front your shitty ass and see how you react!

    The real point of the reaction is, after the incident, does the pilot still maintain control of his bird... tool

  • Don't be ridiculous. Those pricks should never fly again. It didn't "pop in front of" him....

    Oh... sorry, of course it did, the cunt had been using his cloaking device

  • lol :)

  • o dear you live in the UK, LEAVE PLEASE

  • Why should I? I was born here. This is my country and I have every right to be here. Just because I don't support murderers, doesn't mean I don't love my country.

    Where do you want me to go lol?

  • Afghanistan would be fine, go fight for the scum

  • in the mean time, tell al your fucking ILLEGAL buddies to fuck off out of England!

  • Your ancestors were 'ILLEGAL' at one point in time. just remember that.

    Not native as a Briton to this country. So maybe you should go back to Europe lol.

  • These imigrants have completely screwed up our country. it's not their fault tho, its those prats in number 10 who want their heads pulled out of their arses so they can see how much they have fucked us up

  • Mate, these guys are protecting us if you don't want protection then fuck off to Iraq

  • Protecting us? From weapons of mass destruction that can be prepared in 60 minutes?!?! :O

    OH NOES!!

  • o.o

  • why did the pilot turn when it was coming towards him? that would of made it more likely to crash as he tipped the wing upright!

  • why did the tornado turn sideways when it was underneath - surely that could have only made things worse

  • case of beer for the pilot .

  • rum

  • On the subject of side-scanning radar, wasn't this one of the advanced features of the ill-fated TSR2?

  • Pah that's nothing compared to the Franch and British nuclear subs that pranged yesterday. lol.

  • Except they didn't "prang" yesterday, it was nearly two weeks ago. doh!

  • lol wungabunga

  • The rest of the video not on here...

    'dee dee dee da da da no everything is one peace...'

    love it!!!

  • You guys seem to forget that the Tornado is a high speed low level strike aircraft. Its a ground attack plane and has ground looking radar. The The air defence variant has air searching radar, plus the Tuccano is a very small plane coming from the right almost intercepting from 90 degrees. If you know anything about radars specifically pulse doppler radars then you would know that they have problem seeing aircraft that are sideways to them

  • roger to that :D

  • So are you saying the Tornado is a sitting duck for an itsy bitsy supersonic missile fired from 90 degrees or were they just not observant?

  • Comment removed

  • that being said, regardless of directional radar...teh approaching aircraft had to have seen the aircraft this video has been taken from.

    To top that, how the hell does a cockpit video make it into the media?

  • further to that, it is the ATC's responsabiity to warn aircraft of traffic in their vicinity

  • not if they are low level FIS its not

  • @fredsas12 No it has air radar, not to have it would be pretty stupid

  • i dont wanna tell him how to fly coz obviously the pilot is better than me but doesnt putting his plane on its side make it taller and seein as the other plane was above him, easier to hit ? just a theory, someone correct me if im wrong.

  • The Tuccano rolled to the left and the Tornado rolled to the right.

  • No, my plane spotter friend: the Tuccano driver simply and quite correctly waved his fist aggressively at the silly woman driver in the Tornado people carrier. If you look very closely at 0:08 and 0:17 you can just see...........

  • Is it just me or did it seem like the tornado was slightly flying sideways?

  • Yeah, its flying slightly to the right

  • Just saw it on the news too!, lol!. that was close though!.

  • lol so did I

  • Just saw this on the news!

  • yes this was a great video i really enjoyed watching this video it made me laugh and i really have to say it was very intertaining

  • not even close..by the RAF standards..

  • 30 foot, tell me thats not close!

  • If that was not close even by RAF standards then why would the RAF pilot scream out 'Jesus' in shock?

    You don't know what the fuck you're talking about!

  • What mode is the hud in?

  • don't talk shit, ur not the pilot, any one who would want to keep his job wouldn't be posting on fucking youtube, and he'd also know how to spell tuccano and might've

  • brucewalker67 from USA where they dont fly tornados and what bombs arent A-G id love to see a ground to air bomb haha, and they arent navigators...they are weapons systems operators now (WSOp) and if you were the pilot you have a RADAR screen and are responsible for seeing where you are going and looking for traffic not relying on your "navigator" and one more thing for the final nail in this coffin...they arent missions they are Sorties or Operations ;)

  • actually the navigator sat behind the pilot would have the radar, this would show the target on the ground, how far it is etc.. and the navigator would relay that info on to the pilot who would be consentrating on flying the plane following a green dashed/dotted line of the flight path to the tagret on his HUD (head up display), if the pilot had to keep looking at a radar in from of him he probly would of hit the Tuccano!

  • The tonado that filmed is a Tornado GR.4, low level ground attack. They dont hve the radars a fighter have, so its hard to generaly pic up aircraft

  • They both have RADAR ...trust me

  • A Tucano....with RADAR... are you for real???

  • i meant the tornado pilot and WSOp both have radar

  • Wrong again!!

  • no wsop on these

  • No they are not weapon system operators

  • Comment removed

  • dont talk crap.

  • ROFL!! I can't believe someone would try to impersonate the pilot.

  • Comment removed

  • Scary !

  • Both USAF and RAF pilots are superb at what they do, as for many professional pilots the world over. Whatever the circumstance, these things will happen. Still, must get the blood pumping! "Bandits 9 o'clock!" hehe ...

  • this incident now on the news. why is it lots of aircraft have crashed lately, first the famous hudson river incident, then ANOTHER crash in new york about 4 days after, then a fatal in grob tutors (2 air cadets + 2 instructors killed) then a helicopter down near doncaster, now this!

  • True, there has been a spate of incidents recently, but with so many millions of flights worldwide every year, I'm suprised we don't have more!!!

  • that was close! nice reactions

  • incredible why wasnt this on the tornados radar?

  • If they were practicing Nap of the Earth flying they'd probably have radar off.

  • haha, i just love the pilots reaction, "fuck me, christ that was close"

    still calm and composed, even though he nearly had a 500mph+ mid air crash,

    the best of britsh lol

  • Don't worry guys. Those of us in the USAF know the RAF is one best in the world. Proud to work with you guys when we can. Ignore the wankers. :) Damn close call though. New underwear needed all around.

  • I think the coakpit will need a re-vamp alltogether

  • pulling hard right was instictive reaction, however it may have helped the trainer clipping his tail fin

  • excuse me! The raf is one of the best in the world!!!

  • you american shit. at least we can hit the enemy

  • I liked how he tipped his wing up to "avoid" the other guy.

  • Mate, there miles better pilots than where ever your from.!
