Let's Do A Lap Around The Boat Shall We?

[The Old Fogducker]

Here's an excellent in-cockpit movie of a T-45C Goshawk doing a cat shot, one trip around the pattern, and a trap.

I never get tired of this stuff, and sure would have liked to have done it a few times in my career.

COOL!

This was allready posted.

I know for a fact because I was watching this very video (somewhere on downwind) when my building started shaking a few weeks ago.

Oh, well please excuse my ignorance of the total content posted on the forum.

I guess you'd have me remove it as being worthless info then?

I await the output of your better judgement.

Even though it was posted before, this is one that I don't mind seeing again... and again...

AvCanada: Takeoff-to-Tiedown in Under 6 Minutes - (around the boat)

First of all, I'm really not that concerned about the issue of duplicate threads or anything that has to do with the structure and/or "tidiness" of this forum.
I mearly wanted to state that I was watching this exact same video when the earthquake hit and that I'll never forget it.

Second of all, its not worthless, its redundant.
The other thread (containing the same "around the boat" in its title and exact same link) was posted less then a month ago.
A quick search would have easily revealed it...

But by all means, carry on.

Thanks for posting this! I would not have seen it otherwise!

[The Old Fogducker]

Hawker ... glad you weren't offended by the extra bandwidth required to transmit that redundant information to those who may have missed it before now.

Hey, times two. Cool vid!

Super cool!

But he would have marks taken off or failed on his PPL depending on the examiner. No lookout before turning crosswind.

After all, there's all that traffic joining the circuit.
