GULFSTREAM JET FULL FLIGHT

Come ride with me.. Well, thats the saying.

Impressive video where cameras are rolling inside (and out) of a Gulfstream G-IV Jet from start to finish.

An excellent 'behind the scenes' look at whats involved in flying one of these majestic birds.

Available in 720p HD for real life effect

Many thanks to 'Corporate Pilot Life' for the video.

2018 LAS VEGAS HELICOPTER EXPO FLY OUT

This is the full fly out of the 2018 HAI Heli-Expo giving you an amazing look at various Helicopters used in the U.S and the different sounds that each one makes.

I sometimes surprise my kids when i point out the different types of helicopters that fly over by the sounds they make, i'm not bad, can usually tell the difference between a Kawasaki BK117 (usually Careflight) and a Augusta Westland (Rescue 207 / 209)

Be sure to put video in 720p HD and a good set of Headphones / Speakers
