Absolutly fantastic - I watched several including the acceleration from .9 to 1.7 mach. What a shame that magnificent aircraft no linger flies. Jim - thanks so much for the link!

No bother Guys :flying:

The second clip a cracker as You say - just shows the level of monitoring required on the A/C - I did notice the turbulence starting at around Mach 1.3 - and the Commander keeping an eye on OAT. It was amazing to see the IAS climbing so rapidly once the burners were plugged in :flying:

After take off and during the climb and turn did you notice the slight frame stutters?

No I know why MS says FS9 is 'As Real as it Gets" :roll:

Brilliant video Jim, thanks for posting.
