Thanks Cav, that makes sense now that I watch it again.  Man I get a chuckle evertime I see that Airbus choppin down trees, I'll pay extra for airline tickets that include a human pilot please.

IIRC that incident wass when airbus was demonstrating their new computer autopilot system. The pilot was trying to pull up and the auto pilot was trying to land.

Like several other peeps on this board say "If it aint BOING i aint going"

F18 Mid-Air Collision-Two F/A-18 Hornets from Top Gun were dog fighting and made a head on pass, just a bit too close. One got home with part of the left wing and left vertical fin and rudder missing, while the other jet is missing everything forward of the cockpit pressure bulkhead and is a flying convertible because the canopy is shattered too.


Ahh...I would have loved to hear the HO whine over chn.200 after that one!

I wonder if they ever settled the score in the DA
