Title: Fighter Pilot: Operation Red Flag
Post by: MIKE on November 09, 2008, 03:38:24 AM
For those of you who may have missed it in IMAX... I didn't.  I bring you plane pr0n courtesy of Boeing.

Full screen it and turn up your speakers.

Denied!  Here's what I got: "Sorry, currently our video library can only be streamed from within the United States".  :(

I think I'm going to have to order this for my cadets to watch. If there is a 5th Tuesday in the month they get to watch a movie, I think that the next 5th Tuesday they will be watching this.

See, if your squadron had high-speed Internets...  Just think of the clan I mean squadron LAN parties meetings.

We have internet, we just can't access it. We meet on base and the internet requires a CAC card :(

I rented that from Netflix for my squadron a long time ago, the cadets loved it! It is awesome on a projector with some external speakers.

Some of the edited-in special effects leave a little to be desired, but the actual footage is freaking awesome, and all in IMAX uber-HD!

I picked this up when I went to RSC at Nellis.  Part of RSC was a tour of the Red Flag Facility - it was Super Awesome!  Tour was given by a CAP-USAF Major who used to work at Red Flag, she did a great job.

Oh yeah, the Thunderbirds were cool too :)

The place to watch it was a few miles to the South at the IMAX in the Luxor! Darn near 180 degree view and sound system to match.

Best tour at PCR/RME RSC? Threat briefing. Could have stayed there the whole day  ;D

One of the first things I did when I moved here. Gotta do it again!

Chutzpa or not..

I've snagged the stream off hulu, in addition I have the DVD.

If you PM me and it's for cadets to watch, and you can't get internet and your cadets in the same room at the same time - I'll send you an AVI file that you can play with Mac or Windows, your projector and speakers. I am not ripping the stand alone DVD, rather, the video that was streamed.

Great movie if it weren't for the bad dialogue.
