Author Topic: AH Air Show Forum? (Read 378 times)

Had a blast this week doing some online formation flying with SOLASXX leading. Excellent! Great fun! We were all keen to do it again but haven't been able to arrange.

Formation and/or stunt squadron anyone?

I think we could have an AH Airshow and Stunt area were we could submit film and pics of our latest prangs and pranks.

I just completed my best stunt so far...namely, inverted Spit MkV through a BH.
You can write to me if you'd like me to send film and pics. Attachment files to these forums would also be helpful.

I'd like to see an AH Airshow at the next Con. We could all enter planes and bail, then walk around the airfield as spectators. Then we could have some individual and team aerobatics competitions (including hangar flythroughs) for some prizes.

Preacher, did you fly Jane's Apache Longbow 2 online with the 101st Virtual Airborne Division?

Your name is awefully familiar.

A stunt show would be cool.

Nath-BDP and I were in the TA arena flying under the VH and other hangars.

We also did it inverted.

I remember flying through a hangar to escape nath on my six. I wish I'd filmed it.

Funked.

Grrrrr, that was my idea.

This has come up before (in the general forum about 6 months ago)......but died a death cos no-one did anything about it. Well if anyone wants to organise something.....lemme know and I help all I can.

Thanks, Snafu...very helpful....we're going to brainstormt his up a bit more and see what we can come up with. Some great ideas here from the previous Torque thread. There seems to be some good interest.
