Aero Commander Aerobatics

[ardypilot]

After seeing Brocks link to an incredable video here, I decided to try and copy what I saw in flightsim, taking an Aero Commander up high, then cutting the engines, diving down low to gain enough airspeed to pull a loop and make a horizontal role, before restarting the engines and landing (At NZWB).

Here are some screenies I took:

1. Climbing through 5000 feet:

2. Getting higher, over Blenhiem

3. Down we go, engines stopped

4. A top down view (for some reason the prop blades are not visable ???)

5. A VC view as we go up and over

6. An outside view

7. Back down over town

8. Finals for Woodbourne, a few seconds later the AFCAD dissapears and I land on grass beneath the runway


But, to really appeciate this, you need to see the recording I made, which can be used in Matthias Neusinger's flight recording module (found free at: http://www.neusinger.net/recorder ). Search avsim for 'Aero Commander Recording.zip' to play it.

All that's missing is the glass of water!

Pretty awesome Trolly, I'm downloading your video from avsim for later viewing - that way I'll be able to post more of screenshots
