I simply love this video. It's an excellent concept, great editing and a fantastic ending. What was the opening music?

pretty nice movie, lotsa fancy flying.

but... well, i dun really like the opening music. and, the other music is a little too positive for an impending nuclear attack and 3v1 scenario. i think that oppressive music (ie. something like Imperial March) would be better for this video.

and, why did ya open and close your cockpit while taxiing?

one last thing... i think that if u synchronised the music's last beat with the crashing of the bomber, the video would sound and look a lil bit better. http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

S! Apollosmith

Very nice and very well done.http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/images/smiley/16x16_smiley-happy.gif

Nice keeping below radar in the mountains then popping up at the last minute for your quick kills... http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

Love seeing you use your cannons to shoot down the last russian fighter.

Ramming the Russian Bomber was just superb, and rejecting just before impact! http://ubbxforums.ubi.com/images/smiley/16x16_smiley-wink.gif

Great Job

Best Regards

Delibes Flower Duet-from Lakme. The final song is Cliffs of Dover by Eric Johnson.

Thanks, but no. I've received very positive comments about the music and I wanted exciting, not oppressing.

Why not? Nothing gets me ready for a dogfight like the cool breeze of an Alaska morning blowing through my hair.

Thanks for the comments!

I'd really love to see you do more along this line. Again, it was a fantastic concept and a great video.

i meant to say, why did ya open and close and open the cockpit again while taxiing before closing it the final time on the runway? hmm... u shot u taxiing 2 or more times?

[apollosmith]

LOL! I never even noticed that before. I had to go back and watch it again to see it myself. I guess I threw in a clip of me taxiing with the canopy down in the middle of all the clips with the canopy up. Yes, I did record it several times. Nice catch!
