On August 16, 1960, Joseph Kittinger jumped into the record books with his record breaking Excelsior jump, doing so from an air-thin height of 102,800 feet (31,334 meters). From that nearly 20 miles altitude, his tumble toward terra firma took some 4 minutes and 36 seconds. Exceeding the speed of sound during the fall, Kittinger used a small stabilizing chute before a larger, main parachute opened in the denser atmosphere. He safely touched down in barren New Mexico desert, 13 minutes 45 seconds after he vaulted into the void. Guess you can say this guy had balls of steel… or something because that is really one very impressive jump!
Both of these helicopters are high tech mean machines built to surpass any rival. Airwolf is probably the most advanced helicopter ever built being able to outrun jet fighters and fly halfway around the world. Blue Thunder is the helicopter intended for surveillance and crowd control missions and has powerful armament, stealth technology that allows it to fly virtually undetected and other accouterments. So who will win?
Imagine sitting comfortably in your seat and then hearing this message from the captain: “This is captain Boycott speaking… we’ll be flying to where ever I like for as long as I bloody like cause I’m the captain…”, how would that make you fell. Fly with the best airline in the world… Yorkshire Airlines
