Some airplane related videos this morning. I don’t really go looking for these things, it just sort of ends up that they are related.<\/p>\n
First off, given last nights most excellent thunderstorm in the Ottawa region, I thought this was particularly appropriate. An air traffic controllers perspective of Fedex planes avoiding a thunderstorm <\/a>over Memphis. It’s incredible for a couple of reasons; first off that’s a whole pile of planes landing in a short while, I have no idea how big that airport is, but man, they must be stacking them or hanging them up on the wall or something. Secondly, aren’t they cutting it a little close?<\/p>\n Then we have a couple of aerobatic videos. First it’s a WW2 veteran with some pretty sharp skills<\/a>. Most interesting is the barrell roll while pouring a little drinky poo in the cockpit without spilling a drop. Amazing stuff.<\/p>\n Finally an incredible display of RC piloting<\/a>, indoors and set to music no less. I had no idea a plane could do this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Some airplane related videos this morning.
