July 17, 20187 yr Kudos to the pilots. "Society has become so fake that the truth actually bothers people".
July 17, 20187 yr I can't believe this for real. What a stunning video. Wow. These pilots are "Top Gun" helicopter pilots. What crazy epic skills they have!!!! How I Evaluate Third Party Sim Addon Developers Refined P3Dv5.0 HF2 Settings Part1 (has MaddogX) and older thread Part 2 (has PMDG 747)
July 18, 20187 yr The Army/Army Guard doesn't do "Top Gun" and most CH-47 crews could do this, regardless good job on the crew and sad my bird (UH-60) had to turn the mission over to the Chinook.

July 21, 20187 yr Hats off and a huge Salute to the crew. Captain to First Officer: " I didn't say it was your fault I am just blaming you "
July 21, 20187 yr Saw that over on pprune, amazing skills. Apparently they do this fairly often in Afghanistan. The trick with duplicating it in the sim would be the camera view, since you wouldn't have crew directing the approach from the ramp. Simulating that view with the camera wouldn't work because your cyclic input would look reversed. I would probably cheat, and just use an external view from behind and above. Or maybe not much of a cheat at all -- looks like the National Guard CH47's are getting upgraded with fancier cockpit tech, including drone viewing screens. So call it a drone view: https://www.cnet.com/news/new-chinooks-boast-autopilot-features-but-best-tech-may-be-yet-to-come/ And then in the sim, you'd have to hope that crash detection or 3D clipping into the terrain wouldn't kick in before you got a good screen shot. 🙂 X-Plane and Microsoft Flight Simulator on Windows 10 i7 6700 4.0 GHz, 32 GB RAM, GTX 1660 ti, 1920x1200 monitor
