They don't call them 'the bounces' for nothing you know.

Ah, the good ol' days, before cricketers enveloped themselves in body-armour.

These are the days of your life... enjoy them

I'm not sure why people dislike your video? Entertaining, interesting and a nice landing too! It's a good model of the Beaufighter.

7.6 Gs are enough to black-out your average 'Joe'. I wouldn't like to experience it!

I love the flight controls - solid, heavy-duty, Russian instruments. No side-stick here!

Fantastic! What's the max range of the remote radio control?

I'm just captivated by this video. But I realise that this is just a portion of a longer video which details much more of the same flight. Do you have the full video/programme? Or do you know where I can get it? It used to be available on YouTube but has, sadly, disappeared!

Hey, don't put yourself down! I'm just the same as you (and a lot of people besides)... I like to try LOTS of different planes too - load them up, hit 'ctrl + e', drop the flaps a couple of notches and take off! Then, when it doesn't work-out, I HAVE to get the instruction leaflet out and sort...

Why don't we get to hear the aircraft's own sounds?!!!!! As a professional 'classical' musician, several minutes of repetitive drum oriented music is just too much to bear!! Sorry.

He holds a top 'C' as well as any great tenor - wonderful! Such a shame that he died so young.

Well said @smkwaterjack - yes, there are technical faults with his voice but, my God, in terms of passion and delivery he gives it all - fantastic.

Thank you for allowing the aircraft to speak for itself! There seem to be so many FSX videos on YouTube where the maker feels the need (for some reason?) to overdub the sound-track with poor quality pop music!!!

Such a good video. However, as a 'classical' musician, I don't share your taste in music and since this is an aircraft video would prefer to hear the aircraft's engine sounds! Also, could you turn the GPS unit/s on for the next video please? Thanks.

I'd prefer a forward/cockpit view with GPS turned on with intermittent views from other parts of the aircraft.

Enjoyed your video - thanks.

You've gone to such effort to make a great video... and then obscured the thing that would really cap it (the aircraft's own sounds) with your personal taste in music (which, as a music graduate, I find repetitive and annoying - sorry!).

I'm a bit puzzled as to what this video is trying demonstrate? I use TrackIR 5 already and the video footage looks very much like my screen does when my piles play-up. Other than that is it just a demonstration of poor landing technique?

Wow this approach makes the Space Shuttle's approach-attitude look shallow! Perhaps an approach from the opposite direction might help... no mountains and adequate time to set-up the aircraft for a landing.

An aircraft with balls!

I'd prefer to hear A380 rather than Richard Strauss...

Very helpful, informative and interesting. Thank you.

This has to be the definitive version of this song - truly spine-tingling. Wonderful accompanying images. Thank you!

I'm so surprised to see that rigorous safety protocols and radio navigation/ILS (amongst other features) are not modern inventions and have actually been around for 60 years!

Lovely music... but I'd rather hear the aircraft/engine noise. Any chance you could re-edit and leave just the original sound-track? It's a great video and I hope that you'll forgive me expressing my personal opinion.

Thanks for your FSX/monitor advice earlier. You make really great videos. I hope that it won't embarrass you if I say that you've got a fantastic quality of speaking voice! I'm a musician/music teacher - I can see children being fascinated by such an instrument/project. If I can get hold of t...

Extremely interesting video - thanks. I think that you might have inclinded me to stick with my cheap but effective (mirrors genuine stick forces at least) Speedmaster Black Widow joystick for the time-being - it works! Can you tell me how you manage to get three monitors to work together? Do ...

Look at that centre-line co-ordination - straight from space! I know idiots who can't manage it in a Cessna...

Unfortunately we all die... As an aviation fan I'd love to 'go' in such a spectacular way (rather than fade-out in bed). According to the accident report, pretty painless too - as the crew cabin depressurised at 212,000ft (In a vacuum) the crew were unconscious immediately. They didn't even ha...

I'm glad that you accurately presented the shuttle's attitude upon re-entry, including the roll-reversal procedure. It always amazes me how this space-craft manages to descend from some 215,000ft/Mach 19 over the Californian coast in time to land at KSC.
