I'm supprised the ground wasn't distrubed more... as in kicking up dust etc.

It just looks real fake.

If that's fake it is really well done. I think it's real. Also I didn't know the French had KC-135's, and one of the spectators does say "Ameeerika" or something to that effect. Me thinks it is a USAF visitor showing off to the locals. :)

USAF says French have 11 KC-135s, Turkey 7, and Singapore 4.

I believe I understand the gist of your post but Courts Martial are not given to civilians in the United States.

Also, why would it be a Court Martial offence to post it?

Looking at the film again I notice they have the airplane pretty well centered in the screen. I beleive that any disturbance to the ground would lag behind it quite a bit and wouldn't show up in the picture. If it's a fake I think it is well done.

I can't make out what that guy says, but it's not "America". It sounds like "wtg guys".

I think he means court martial for the pilot and crew for flying the KC-135 too low, not for posting the item.

Nothing beats low fly-bys, and the bigger the better! :aok :aok :aok

Once I managed to get one BAe Hawk to make low pass over the tower (many times actually but this is best remembered) and the pilot said heīs otw. Well..we heard the sound but we didnīt get the visual.. until he popped up just behind our ground service building... took almost our antennas down from our TWR building :)

I got calls from local handling companies that : "Did someone just crash???" and 1 hr later our Airfield manager passed by muttering something about loony ATC officers.. (He had been listening RTF when I asked the pilot to do fly-by.. )

:rofl :rofl :rofl
