Aviation and Flight Sim Video Forum

I videotaped this glider ride using a Sony 8MM camera, 8MM was the best video quality one could get back in the mid 80's, which replaced the bulkier VHS systems and used an FM soundtrack for enhanced stereo sound. It's a long video, it gets interesting about 12 minutes into the flight, but no spoilers here, to me though it is the epitome of the feeling I get every time I read the classic Richard Bach story, Jonathan Livingston Seagull. It also debunks the old Ford Commercials, quieter than a glider, because any glider soaring at 60-70 KIAS is as loud as the "Queen of the Skies", the 747 and the "King of the Skies", the A380...

This was a real flight I went on in 1987. It was a complimentary flight since me and my hotel staff worked with the owner of the company that invited me on the flight. It was filmed with a Sony 8MM Handycam (which is why it is grainy, but it was the highest resolution camera available at that time). I then transferred it to my PC video archive via Sony Handycam and when I lost my last computer due to a hardware failure, I restored the video from my USB HD backup drive.

Had some fun mucking about with the Spitfire! Flying from Abbotsford to Kamloops with ORBX PNW: Hope you enjoy! (More Bruce - less Rachmaniniov!)

They say sim copters are hard to fly in P3DV4, This one however is not.... John https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTqs5n2BP-s

Found this little fellow for P3D, my landing is not the best coz I was looking out the window at the City by the Bay.... Youtube Journey's "Lights" song if you want good music to go with this video, although recorded it in the daytime. This forum is my fav place to chill out if I've had a hard day.

Landing in MIA Sunday evening. It was the only airport open in the eastern coast of Florida because of Dorian. Descent and landing had no turbulence, and it was pretty much a 16-kt headwind from 280. it

Hello, I am proud to link below my first ever rather OK video :-)) Hope you'll like it !

For those who wish to enhance their visual experience in P3D, here is a concise TomatoShade setup guide. Cheers, Vincent

This video features the Take-Off from the China Southern Airbus A380 Superjumbo out of Amsterdam Airport Schiphol! China Airlines operates a fleet of 5 Airbus A380 Superjumbo's and has a total of 852 aircraft in operation. Enjoy the video! 🙂

I have this crazy idea in my head about having a vr headset and a virtual environment-cockpit to fly these things...... Also: Jeez this thing is Yuge! Even as an uninvolved viewer I think I would cry real tears if it crashed.

We make the Return Trip to Ottawa (though to CYOW) but in part one we make a stop in Carp (CYRP) to Re Fuel... Come along as we depart Kingston and deal with some peculiar Flight Plan questions en route!

Hi, The Milviz T-38A Adv Redux Sorry about the few stutters I didn't have at the recording. Made with OBS and OpenShotVideo. If anyone knows where these stutters come from, please comment...

One form of aviation is stunt aviation, however the opportunity for the feelings and sensations of stunt aviation are hard to come by.... I have only been upside down in an aircraft once, and the pilot who did it for me did something quite illegal, over Napa he was flying a friend and I since we helped him prep an aircraft he was reconditioning for flight, a Cessna 182. At approx the intersection of highway 29 and first street, 1000 feet above Embassy Suites as it was known back then, in the 80's, he said "Here we go" and he performed a perfect, weightless zero g roll. I loved it, a former good friend of mine hated it and even though he was a non pilot he read the…
