These tests will be flown with chase planes that have cameras mounted to watch the other plane. This is so if something does go wrong, they have a lot of evidence to figure out what happened.

I get the feeling she still has a few more generations left, just like the B-52.

It's a slippery looking 747, that's for sure.

Which pilot doesn't want a go in that!?

OK this is the hardest question who recorded that 2:32 how did he get up? heli? airplane? airplane with hole?
