    The Morane Saulnier MS 225 was a standard fighter from Armée de l'Air with exceptionnal aerobatics capacity, she could fly on the side with unequaled ease, and was used in aerobatric "patrouille d'Etampes" long after it became obsolete as a fighter.

  • Just checking out some of my family heritage here. That's pretty neat that one of my relatives won the first world cup for Aerobatics! My name is Christina Fieseler~ I'm a world champion soprano vocalist. If any one would like to hear what I love to do so much, feel free to look up my name on here. I have a few songs up, and working on writing and recording a complete original Popera album~ which I'll be posting more songs on youtube soon! Thank you! :)

  • sehr gutes video...

  • Interesting how the narrator notes both competitors as "Side Slipping" down to earth, as if it's a complicated maneuver, which it is not. Plus, these aircraft had no flaps, so unless you want to land at an extremely shallow angle from far away, you have no choice, but to side slip as part of everyday operations. Truly daredevils though in the flying, not knowing the limitations of those aircraft, and exploring the limits of flight for the first time...

  • Actually, no. The "greased-in" smooth landing is a myth that non-pilots think of as good.

    In reality, depending on winds, surface slickness, and other factors, a good pilot may need to put his/her aircraft onto the ground quite firmly and abruptly. A pilot who always "greases it on" may crash at the far end of the runway someday.

    Pilots do enjoy performing a "greaser" when conditions allow, but in reality, many factors affect smooth landings, and it's not always the pilot.

  • very very interesting!!! thank you my friend!!!

  • Great as usual

  • Thank you so much !

    Wonderful dreamvideos for planelovers.

    I too am surprised that the monoplane managed so long on the "knife edge" - and at such low altitude !

    These guys vere fantastic pilots, and the old planes perform far better than one tend to think - I think

    greetings from Norway

  • I've been looking at your clips, they're magnificient! You should be rightly proud.

  • Bomberguy thank you! Your work is well done and i like it very much!

  • Thanks for all your videos!!!

  • exciting documentation!

    worthwile to mention that in the ladies competition in Vincennes during 28th April 1934 Liesel Bach won the title in a Klemm Kl 28 XIV.

  • super!!! Bomberguy, we wait for some more!!

  • It's pronounced 'Feeseller' btw!

  • Now let's see some REAL flying, Stachel!

  • Keep 'em coming, Bomberguy!

    That really was/is good flying - it's very difficult to do those manoeuvres, even in today's aircraft.

  • I eat this Golden Age stuff up! And Bomberguy!,

    in these two ships you have brought us some superlative beauties. Fantastic!

  • Fascinating film and sidebar. Q: How did the French aircraft manage to sustain flying on it's side for several seconds? Hard to believe that the fuselage could generate sufficient lift at those speeds.

  • Great as usual

  • wow, nice video ;)
