Can you imagine Maverick and Goose making noises like that while doing ACM against the dastardly renegade MiG-28 :shock: 8)

Good video, illustrates how physically demanding it is to fly a display. Instant 9G's.

Thanx Airfire - saw it already. I subscribed to SAAB's channel. Was lovely.

Was lovely to see those rolls for a change for real, not from FSX. The role rate looks even faster than in FSX.

Maybe I am just flying her too slow. With FSX blacking out at 4G, I try to fly under 400 knots, otherwise my turns are too wide because I "black out" to quickly. (So I cheated and switched of G-effects, but then I started breaking her by pulling over 11 G - FSX doesn't have a computer restricting the plane to 9G...)
