Classic Fighters 2009 #19: RNZAF Red Checkers - post # 2

The Red Checkers [see previous post] don't just entertain in the air. In recent times, they've taken to putting on the smoke and doing donuts after landing... another thing you're allowed to do in your plane, but not in your car? :-)

Anyway, here's the sequence.

  1. Nice pictures. Least the Airforce guys keep their donuts on the airport!

  2. Don't do these turns too fast. The gyroscopic loading on the crankshaft is not good for the front bearings!
