I don't know why the V-tail went out of fashion. There is so much myth around them. They are so cool and technically superior to T-tails. (that is why the US military has brought them back)

half of 6 packs instruments ! just enough to fly and enjoy ! no garmin, display, bip bip...

Very nice video. I might suggest some footage of the entire plane. It would be nice to get a wider look.

That is so cool - I always loved the Ka3. I knew of the existence of the VGC but not the GHC. If I lived in the south of England I'd join immediately!

Nice flight!

Weiter so 👍

Is it related to the Schleicher Ka4 Rhönlerche? It does have some semblance to it.

thanks for leaving your selfie stick at home...whoops...sorry....turns out is was about a guy's face after all

Bravo !!!

Why must you have the variometer ?? It is so annoying ! Whatever happened to looking at your altimeter, like the way soaring use to be ??

Nice one Patrick. Love the shape of the Foka 4 with its 50s jet styled tail. Pretty sure I wouldn't fit sadly!

I've flown Foka few times in the gliding club in Elblag. Beautiful glider in my opinion.

Where was this?

Good job brother!

I was a member of the ATC many years ago i learnt to fly in the T21 and the T31 flew both solo truly amazing experience. 👍👍👍

Gotta try this

So the Shuttleworth collection has an airworthy Queen Bee Optional piloted vehicle. Can they demonstrate an automated landing ?

Wonderful. My first solo was in one of these, 60 years ago ..... happy memories!

Some really good air closeup filming. The wind noise does rather spoil it, challenging day it was.

Respekt

I did my unusual attitudes/spin training in a K13 at RAF Laarbruch. Great fun!🙂

Saw otto the helicopter tonight at a firework display in Aston Down. Enjoyed it loads and am happy there's people out there recording and sharing footage!

and what is that airfield (airpot) holy

what glider is that?

Great video.

The pilots who took off and landed on aircraft carriers in the Swordfish must have been immensely skilled and very brave. One managed to hit the rudder of the Bismarck which sealed her fate.

Fabulous sight, the spitfire got better and better with each mark. Arguably the P 51 eventually outclassed it, but needed a Rolls designed engine . Nice to see the Hurricane's, which of course were more plentiful in 1940 than Spits . Looks like a great day out, missed it this year, must do better next .

I don't think WOW remotely covers this. Apparently the Lysanders and the Blenheim are available for flight experiences from Duxford.

Wish I'd seen it live, thanks for sharing mate, much better than not seeing it at all.

If you're going to film takeoff and landings, don't be an idiot by setting up your camera behind a bunch of parked planes, dumbass! And if you can't find a better spot, no footage is better than crappy footage.

Where is this airfield?

Pity no commentary!

Lanc had a much bigger bomb payload . A squadron of Lancs was prepared for dropping the Atomic bomb, the B29s in special build were touch and go if they were going to be ready on time. The RAF did get a few B29s post war, they had early variants of the B17 during the war .

Someone said "How can anything so deadly be so beautiful". I couldn't agree more. I prefer seeing these iconic aircraft - including the often ignored Hurricane - in their original WW2 colours rather in modern bright flashy ones.

Beautiful sight. I still get goosebumps.

The lanclooks like it could teach the fortress a few lessons... Maybe just bias.

Such a magnificent sight to see, went there on the Saturday and the whole airshow in general was absolutely brilliant

Beautiful aircraft. Workhorse of the BoB and beyond. The Spitfire wasn’t better, it was different. The Hurricane was extremely successful against the Luftwaffe, and could take lots of punishment. We were lucky to have them!

such a cool view

The men who flew them during WW2 were Brave indeed.

superb.

I believe that was a mk4 Blenheim until it crashed and had to be rebuilt as a mark 1

Great stuff ! Keep em flying 😊

..that BF-108was used in the Great Escape by James Garner and Donald Pleasance in their escape attempt...

What a delight, the Oly with its 'angelic choir' air-brakes...

Shame about the wind noise, pretty neat little mod though

I watched "Things to Come" (1936) the other day it featured one of these, briefly.

Such a great plane :) thanks for the share.

Two unique and beautiful planes!
