    Kills count for the RIO/WSO as well in a two-seater when a Pilot splashes or shacks a target, so it absolutely counts that you were in the backseat for DACT against Raptors and Eagles.

    5:40 that's the most dumb decision , they should take the advantage of having these russian planes to study the dogfight BFM between them and share the intel with all the other pilots, they are from the same country for God's' sake, is that a matter of pride between pilots on the same country (?) , IMHO that's such a fatal philosophy

    During my first solo, i remember the freedom. Afterward, i logged the flight details but added a note, “The day I left earth.” Sure, maybe it sounds a little cheesy, but it felt profound. I felt like i had personally defeated gravity and could go anywhere and do anything. Freedom.

  • @RedTail1-1
    @RedTail1-1 4 дні тому

    Don't know why it still bothers me so much, but... Oil isn't dinosaurs... It's vegetation.. plants.. I know it shouldn't bug me as much as it does and I know saying "burning dinosaurs" sounds cooler yet I just don't like people thinking and spreading false info. Still a very very cool video. My one little gripe has nothing to do with this awesome footage.

    • @Glee73

      Even if a pilot does get motion sickness, they make medicine for that.

      The person flying does not feel sick because they're preoccupied. A passenger without experience will usually suffer from motion sickness.

    Rhino is faster down low than the legacies, even the big motor legacy. Once you got into the mid-high teens, the roles would begin to reverse. A clean Rhino accelerates like a mofo on the deck. Never flew the Tomcat though.

    • @therealgonky
      @therealgonky 5 днів тому

      No Sir, I did the airshow St Louis in 2011 and could not get the Rhino past 0.95 at 1000'. The big motor D would do 1.1 on the deck easy. Rhino accelerated a bit better down low but that's it.

    "That jet would be dead at the merge" is indeed ignorant. Cause you are overconfident and allready put yourself as a winner without even knowing and acknowledging the capabilities if your opponent. And how many times in history has it played out to be a detremental flawed way of thinking. Respect your opponent and their machines. If they give their 100% but you only expect to need 70% to best them then you're thinking wrong. And im verry certain that something in the future will happen where those people will go: " oh shit..."
