10 MB movie in "wmv" format (should
play on Windows Media Player 7.0 or newer). Jumbo jet crash lands on
interstate highway. You may want to have "broad band" to download this
one... or start downloading and find something to do for a half-hour (if you are
using a modem). This is a creation of two young graphic artists using computer
animation and real footage. It is impressive and well worth the long
download. More information on how they did it here.
Jumbo jet landing that you will NEVER forget...
in other words, how NOT to land a 747 in Hong Kong! Must see this! (Less
than 1 MB in length, "mpg" format) The picture on this particular
button is a KLM 747... click here for the full
sized picture.
Ever see the speed
of sound? Watch a Navy jet just a wing span off the water do a fly-by for
the camera only 100-feet away. Notice that the sonic boom is just about
simultaneous with the jet's passing the camera! Turn up the volume on this
one!! (Less than 1 MB, "mpg" format... you will want to see this
one... and save it to your hard drive!) The button above is actually of a
B52... if you want the full sized picture, click here.
Ever wonder what a spin looks like from inside
the cockpit? Check this out! (Small clip, less than 1.0 MB,
"mpg" format) If you want the scoop on spins, click here.
If you want a bigger version of the above picture, click here.
More movie clips to be posted soon... please come back.
Hints: Couldn't get the movies to play? With Windows computers, try holding down the shift key while left-clicking on the above icons. This should bypass your browser's ideas of how to play a movie and allow you to save the movie to your disk... you can then open the file with Windows Media Player or any third party video player. Remember where you save the file (you should be prompted) and open it up with Windows Media Player.
