Sukhoi Su 31 crazy pilot.
Sweary reporter and a low pass from a spitfire.
( contains swearing..... Obviously!)
I'd almost forgotten about this thread!
Lovely to see it still going.

About 30 minutes ago.
The SU-31 crazy pilot link goes to a video of someone flying what looks like a Yak under a bridge,
So in the meantime here's a crazy pilot doing loony things with an SU-35:
And a pair of Yaks:

Not quite the same thing but I 'flew' the Lightning simulator at Tangmere last weekend.
Probably the closest I will ever get!
Here's 3 from years ago when airshows were more awesome.
Jaguar at Linton on Ouse, wheels just up & starting to crank it over.

Neighbour in the village has a Hurricane he flies out of his little grass strip in his field. I'll snap a couple of it. Its for sale if any if you fancy a proper toy.
I can forgive Red Bull for a lot because of what they did with this. Lovely.

Just found this on Zite: http://foxtrotalpha.jalopnik.com/the-touch-roll-touch-was-one-of-the-craziest-maneuvers-1694004513
Belgian display pilot managed to do a fast touch-and-go, followed by a fast roll on climb-out, followed immediately by a touch-down, on the same landing approach on the same runway.
Much attempted by others, usually fatally, manoeuvre was banned after a while.
Qu'ell surprise!
Holy thread resurrection, Batman!
As an aside, after a recommendation from JulianA, may I recommend this book to you all;

Fate is the hunter is one of the best books I've ever read. A must for any aspiring pilot too.
One of the best for threads ever

That particular Sea King is particularly noisy and leaks like a sieve.
Fortunately it's not like it's based in a particularly wet park of the UK...oh wait a second.....

Stevedoc, this is a sequel to [url= http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/when-wars-were-colder-planes-were-cooler ]this old thing![/url]
Not great photos, they've just come to light, and I had to copy them from the prints by putting a sheet of glass over the prints to shot them with my phone! My scanner/printer has died, and I've not got access to another.
These were taken at RAF Wroughton, back when they still had displays up there.

Vulcan, (obviously), Grumman Tigercat, Consolidated PBY-5 Catalina.
The Tigercat was flying with a Wildcat and a Corsair, I've got photos, but they're not that great.
[nerd] Gofasterstripes, your SU25 is a MiG25 and your SU-17 is a Su-22 (polish air force export model)
