Yes, consider this another repeat post of FX1's previous topic located here:

http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,254891.0.html

I figured I would simply be courteous to other aviation enthusiasts such as me sparing them some time in finding these video clips. This footage is taken from the movie, "Sky Fighters (Les Chevaliers du Ciel)." From what I've heard, the movie's story is rather bland (worse than that of Top Gun). However, the flying scenes are quite impressive. Here are three films including some of these scenes:

Film 1: http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=358_1230034112
Film 2: http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=606_1230043447
Film 3: http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=83c_1230060168

Enjoy!

It's not a joke anymore when people still don't know when to stop. Anyway, as u said, The movie story line is childish at beast, but the flying scenes are superb.

Oh and incase you don't know: French jet fighters have rear view mirrors ... so they can keep an eye on the battle. Also, the French Navy ships have glass bottoms ... so they can keep in touch with the rest of the fleet. :t

Didn't one of their subs sink when someone opened up the screendoor or was that a Polish sub?  :devil

It's like that Heroic French soldier that received the MOH for a rambo dash in the killzone to retreive the map to a secret warehouse of a dead American soldier ... except he missunderstood ... he thought it was the map to the secret "whourehouse".  :salute
