Not sure if this has been posted in the thread but I got distracted watching it as it followed an A10 video posted in another thread. However it has a couple of flybys ofthe 747 carrying the space shuttle. Unfortunate;y I didnt note the times!

Not sure if planned - but much preferable to landing on water wheels down.

A bit like Clarkson in the Reliant, just aeroplane-shaped.

I like the B-1 fixation the cameraman has. Even with the F-16 up on a wingtip he continues to track the take-off of each B-1.

I lasted 3 seconds, got dizzy and had to kill it. I am useless, Waltzers at the fairground are my idea of hell on earth.

...salvage of a Grumman Goose (stuck there due to dual engine failure) from a frozen lake.

So it can be done! Take a WWII era aeroplane stranded in a frozen wasteland, repair it and prepare to fly it out, and it doesn't have to burst into flames before it gets airborne!!
