    The V-22 with the "weird" glowing blade-tips, that's actually quite common on rotor-wings... Low-light ground safety-feature, and also for formation-flying in the dark: blade-tip lights.

    If you look at the underside of the ECM pod at the tail you will notice a slightly fuzzy small lump. An external switch is mounted here, in the cockpit it's indicator light will be green, if it turns amber/yellow the the tail is about to touch the ground, if it turns red, then the operating arm of that switch is likely to be embedded in the fuselage of the aircraft (Naughty Skipper!) - I only ever saw that happen once in our Squadron (101 Squadron RAF Waddington)

    That little Italian boxcar of a C-27 lost a LOT of altitude doing that roll. Not really a thing to try for fun... That pilot understood that and went UP before trying it, but a newbie might not...
    Reminds me of the story of a Tutor student-pilot in the RCAF in the 80s (or maybe 70s). He went to his dad's farm, close by Moose Jaw, Sask. and tried flying inverted. He pulled up on the stick to go up, but it meant DOWN in his reverse attitude. plowed straight in, right in front of Daddy... Sad day for that family.

    From 1976-80 I was stationed at Barksdale AFB ,La and we hosted the International Bombing Competition. I always loved when the Brits would arrive with the Vulcan and Victors. The Vulcan always put on an impressive performance. That big bird is surprisingly agile for the size it is. It’s one of the planes I loved watching at the annual air show. A shame they are all gone.

    • @restojon1
      @restojon1 12 дней назад +1

      An old RAF Officer told me a fantastic story from one of those competitions when we sent the Vulcan across the pond. I can't recall if it was him, or he overheard it but apparently two very high up "Top Brass" were monitoring the competition and the American Officer was heard to say "those Brits have got themselves a sports bomber and we're flying a bomb truck" referring to the B-52's.
      I always found that amusing.
      Horses for courses I say. If you want a few bombs putting somewhere very accurately and very quickly. Sports Bomber.
      You want to remove a location from the map. Bomb Truck.

      Long live the special relationship.
