Winston DoRight 3 Posted August 12, 2010 Wouldn't it be better to put all these videos in the videos sticky topic above? It would make the board much easier to navigate and read new topics of interest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JFM 18 Posted August 12, 2010 Not so much the wind but the crosswind. For the most part in WW1 you weren't slaved to a runway. You pointed the machine into the wind and took off with little-to-no crosswind at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flyby PC 23 Posted August 12, 2010 The silly cow laughing at the Vimy in trouble is lucky I wasn't standing beside her. Not bad doing an emergency aborted take off with no brakes. Pilot's a legend I think..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
