When tooled up for Helarm Ops, she does a pretty good job for a fairly old bird ! Make those missiles HOT HOT HOT ! and the SDMG's must have been listening in to us old guys talikng about the "Apocolypse now!" scenes tehy sure do take after the 7th Air Cav guys we used to do exchanges with years ago when Apache was first introduced to them, All these years after ,still recall the first "cabby" in an Apache with a female WO pilot,fantastic !!!!!!!!!!
The 1/2 loop with roll off the top and the loop with a roll at the apex are world firsts - no body else has ever done this figures before - well done the British AAC !
The aircraft was in full control at all times during the display! There was no danger to the pilot or spectators. However, it appears there is a severe drop in the population of flies, mosquitos and midges in the Thames area ;-)
Thank you for posting this, the truly spectacular flying of the AAC not shown on the TV coverage of Air Race..Excellent video, fantastic music, well done.
the real question is, can it fly? oh...wait...nevermind.
