yallu Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Fly-Ins (and Fly-In displays) end this sunday. Shows will take place 2nd - 4th of December (live video streams). I stumbled into this almost by accident. Boy it was hard to believe my eyes. It is simply INSANE. I've seen both Thunberbirds and Red Arrows IRL and these guys fly similar/same shows also. But don't take my word for it, see it yourselves: Videos: [media]http://vimeo.com/5485878 (Virtual Thunderbirds, this is what VFAT is) [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-23rZuisi9I (Virtual Thunderbirds) [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Yf0Tzah5bo (Virtual Red Arrows) [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uxg7-0t19lM (Virtual Turkish Stars 1/2) [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=91Cw3azPL_U (Virtual Turkish Stars 2/2) [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZB8tCdHe8w (VAT "Berkuts") [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KIBZKsAB0h0 (Virtual Blue Angels) Audio of Virtual Thunderbirds COMMs from VFAT 2009 show (no video): [media]http://vimeo.com/12122793 Seems to be DCS/Eagle Dynamics: Lomac/FC/FC2 etc. being used. No FSX though AFAIK. More videos: http://www.youtube.c...o_date_uploaded The organizers (I think): http://www.virtual-airshows.com/ http://forum.virtual...pic,1141.0.html I for one will be staring on those live streams with eyes wide open... If you think about how these guys have to fly: over the laggy net, with plastic non-precision controls and poor visibility outside with just computer monitor(s) - it just has to be harder than IRL. I wonder why no FSX groups, maybe FSX is too lazy sending position updates of other planes in multiplayer mode? Like it too? - Hmm... The board seems to force my links into embedded videos. Well...

Derek McAllan Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Check out Angel's excellent VFAT 2010 vid here, it's a corker. [media]http://vimeo.com/10627737 His Flying with Mirage video is excellent as well. And yeah, it's all LOMAC, or has been in the past. http://vimeo.com/9621346 Cheers, Derek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highpriest Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 It most certainly can be done using FSX. [media]http://youtu.be/SSwjZwr4LkA Regards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
