la7rules,
you don't give precise data on your actual alt, I say it is around 25 to 28 feet agl/asl

what is so amusing was the 4000+ cannon rounds :lol

use a film and see how low you can go.....
film will show better.......

the fella who did a roll thru the hangars was lower, think it is in the screenshot/films forum ( was it webferet?)

you are pertty low here though ......

It varies from AC to AC...but you can find out by just checking ALT while sitting on the Runway

if film doesnt work, well, then im a muppet, but i shall watch it again and again untill i go blind :)

PS: anyhow, the lowest you can go is exactly proportionate to your prop size.   20ft is a walk in the park mate, a walk in the park.

ok thats great, but its not 2 feet.
infact its above the hight of my 1st pic...

but fair play its upside down.

estimate ya self as low as you want.
but that dont count

good going though. Was as low as ud need o go upside down

Umm ... those are screenshots from a film. I few with cocpit view only, it is a lot more difficult to do that using outside views. And how tall is the tail on a 190? Yeah you're right, it's probably 3 or 4 feet.
Title: How low can you go?
Post by: la7'sRule on September 16, 2004, 09:30:09 AM
if you lik you can pop in to 1 of my h2h rooms..
training onlu
or
teams "max ping 350"

and chalange ya self to auto take off lol...
il give you money if you manage it...
All newb things are disabled.
I.e outside view , training cross, stall limiter , perk planes,
And theres also a night..

hell i know that all that prolly makes you wanna go play microsoft combat flight simulator. And your welcome to :)

but like i said if you wnna come chalange ya self your welcome to visit room,

P.s
like i said earlier even though some ppl are obviously illiterate as you keep pointing it out.
But the ammo is set that high becous its a training room, With low lethality and high ammo,
but i doubt all of you will comprehend that.

look at the altomiter in cokpit view.
he aint as low as you beleve he is. But it is impressive and Im real glad pics were sent :)

maby now more ppl will try to go lower.

hows about lankaster 3 upside down thru hangar at same hight...

Now that would be Impressive!

:) and thanx for indulging me

Post by: GScholz on September 16, 2004, 09:34:14 AM
Umm ... you talking to me? How much money are we talking about? I have never used auto take-off, not even when I was a rookie 2 years ago.
Title: How low can you go?

Post by: la7'sRule on September 16, 2004, 10:03:38 AM
about the same as my 1st attempt.

But your upside downn And i think your prolly just a lil lower.

both pics (my 1st and your last) are below thw 10 feet mark but unfortunatly mine is a lil 2 blury to be that accurate.

never the less you win :)

now do it in a lank :D
Title: How low can you go?
Post by: GScholz on September 16, 2004, 10:06:37 AM
I tried. Bloody thing wouldn't stay airborne. Only the Ju88 had enough elevator authority to fly inverted, but it didn't fit the VH.

If it dont interest you keep it to ya self :) no 1 who is trying this (mostly to help them get better over all) cares about your oppinion.
a challange has beemn put forth and Will hopefully graduate in to something even you With your Greatness will wanna try to do..

but of cours you obviously lack the inteligence to want to better your self and probably beleve that you can do any thing at any time with Great unfounded confidence :)

oh by the way

Okee.. my vote is Gscholz... he did it in a 190 then a ju88, and he's inverted.  You are in a la7, you can't win friends with an la7 =)    Show me something without the la7 and we'll talk  :aok
Title: How low can you go?
Post by: flyingaround on September 16, 2004, 02:12:26 PM
I'm STILL tryin' to figure out how this makes one a good pilot.  


btw GS niiiice invert thru vh.  anybody can screenshot over the water inverted RIGHT before they smack into the ground, but thru a vh takes some skill.

 la7'sRule   you ever make it to the DA?  or you free h2h'r only?  I'm curious as to what you consider "good" as far as flying ability.
Title: How low can you go?
Post by: la7'sRule on September 16, 2004, 02:25:17 PM
im not good and im yet to see a good pilot.

i beleve any 1 can win a dog fight and most of you lot vulch any way, i beleve good pilots do other things like

inverted thru hangars
or 262 landing on cv.
drop a bomb out of lankaster on plane flying below you....

but i beleve things like this are beond some ppl who probably just vulch and then boch the landing and loose all 5 vulch kills they had...
Sound familiar?

You really need to get out of H2H land ... it's causing drain bammage.

Somehow I fail to believe that ...

inverted thru hangars
or 262 landing on cv.
drop a bomb out of lankaster on plane flying below you....

will make you a better pilot and dogfighter ... YMMV.

Now that I think about it ... why did I even answer ... you are definately the most vehment troll that has ventured from the H2H sandbox.

Funny people.

Why do you keep looking at this post??
i beleve that all you wanna do is vulch and fly at a 15k advantage and ya to scared to go fly without 30 of ya freinds to go b4 you.

H2H is not ma.
And i dont understand why you people who dont care about this post keep coming back and posting messages...

do you crave attention form me cos ya parents neglected you???

if so thats fine keep posting your infintile redunant remarks That you feel Are reall importaint to say,
But obviously The people with higher inteligence Will browse the post relize that they are Above it and Then leave,

obviously you beleve that this post is just what youve been wating for..
Something to ridiqule like is so often done to you.
realy otherwize why would you be so bitter as to even post a derogatory remark any where? Does it make you feel clever??
if so im sorry for you

Hope you get a life and Stop distrupting posts that dont interest you.

Somehow to you that isn't flying ability?

A real life input:
A RAF pilot flying his Spitfire on a Rhubarb raid, flying under radar, hit a wavetop with his propeller in the mid English channel.
With a completely hissing engine he landed at Manston.
All propeller blades were bent forwards like a banana.

Another one.

In the thread about the incredible 747 (744) landing there is a link to the big-boys homepage.
Browse through their videos, and you will find a picture of an aerobatics plane flying inverted under a bridge!
Nice :D

Spit XII pilot Peter Cowell, while flying the often photographed MB882 EB-B, managed to bounce off the Channel waves  taking an equal amount of length off all 4 of the composite blades.  He managed to get back to the nearest base flying at full throttle with essentially half length prop blades on that XII.

Said it was the scariest moment he had in the entire war.

Dear La7, the majority of my posts on the BBS have been sarcasm. If you saw my FIRST post you'll notice I was interested. I made the other comment out of intended comedy.

btw,

Try flying at 90 deg  with wing barely touching ground.
