The Red Bull Speed Run is probably the ultimate competition for the hang gliding adrenaline junkie. Get as fast as you can as low as you can through a series of gates… a recipe for a fantastic show. Lots of cool low passes, water skimming, loops and more crazy action performed by these professional dare devils.
Ever wondered what it would be like inside an Apache attack helicopter? Ride along these guys as they follow a river somewhere in Iraq. The gunner doesn’t really seem to be too impressed by this… guess this is just another day at work.
It’s a very hot day and this Russian Ilyushin Il-76 Candid is full and ready for a 3000 kilometer trip. As it reaches the holding point, the pilots prepare this monster for a very long takeoff run. And boy, it’s gonna be a really long one… the plane takes off right at the end of the runway barely lifting its weight into the air giving traffic controllers quite a thrill.
