Air Combat

Post by garyedolan »

Comment from an Air Force fighter pilot:

"This is without reservation the best video I have ever viewed depicting air-to air combat."
The producer and photographer were able to show perspective of the entire arena in a way I've never seen.
This is as "real" as it could possibly be! When the pilot got into a scissors or Luffberry you can almost feel the g's!"

Taken at Kadena Air Force Base, Okinawa
