    Press release Saturday 28th July 2018 Thousands marvel at amazing aerobatics at #BrayAirDisplay 2018 RAF Red Arrows to perform Flypast over River Liffey at 19.50 this evening Large crowds expected tomorrow to see headliners, The Red Arrows Despite a rainy start to the day, the clouds lifted and the sun shone on the thousands of people who made their way to Bray Promenade today to marvel at spectacular aerobatic performances as part of the award-winning, 13th Bray Air Display, supported by the Irish Aviation Authority (IAA). Spectators were treated to a dazzling display of aviation expertise from some of the most talented pilots and aerobatic display teams from across Ireland and Europe. The Irish Air Corps opened the show, followed by the Royal Jordanian Falcons flying four Extra-300 L aircraft, headliners of today’s display. A professional national aerobatic team formed in 1976, the Royal Jordanian Falcons have an international reputation for precision, professionalism and spectacular performance. Peter Kearney, Chief Executive of the Irish Aviation Authority said, “Today was a wonderful start to the IAA’s #AviationIreland weekend of spectacular air displays in Bray and Foynes, Co. Limerick. Tomorrow’s line- up at Bray will be really exciting as well and a great chance to enjoy a wealth of aviation talent on display.” Other display highlights included a Catalina Flying Boat celebrating her 75th birthday and a beautiful vintage Aer Lingus aircraft, the DC-3, popular in the 1940s and 50s. Irish aviation was also celebrated at the event with The Irish Air Corps, the Irish Historic Flight Foundation, the Irish Coast Guard Search and Rescue, and the Garda Support Unit helicopter participating for the first time.

They also have an ambassadorial role, promoting an air force and country overseas. Many covered in this supplement display overseas each year and, in some cases, frequently undertake international tours. Teams are also used to promote a country’s aerospace industry, playing informal roles in sales campaigns. As financial constraints continue to affect air force budgets globally, it will be interesting to see if aerobatic teams can maintain their military, political and industrial value.

  • Airshows in California
    Airshows In California If you like to watch cool airplanes fly around, there is hardly a better state to live in than beautiful California. The great weather has made our state home to many air bases and to many passionate private owners of interesting aircraft. All the crop-dusting that goes on in the Central Valley produces many a fine aerobat. Nasa's Ames Research Center, right in Silicon Valley, has been at the leading edge of fluid dynamics studies for a while (they have the largest wind tunnel in the world). Also, much of the USAF's recon units are not too far from there, in the Sacramento area. Heading south, Lemoore is one of the US Navy's biggest fighter-jet bases. Further south; the LA area headquarters Northrop Grumman and AeronVironment and is home to some Boeing and Lockheed facilities, not to mention Vandenberg's rocket launchpads. And finally, the importance of Southern California's Antelope Valley to the development and testing of modern aviation technologies cannot be overstated, from Edwards Air Force Base and the Nasa Dryden Flight Research Center (where the sound barrier was first broken and where proof-of-concept X-planes still fly) to all the prototyping/testing facilities at Palmdale and the home of Scaled Composites in Mojave. So if you like aviation, there are few places you'd rather be at than California. And where there are a lot of people making aviation happen... there are airshows. If you live in California and think you might enjoy going to an airshow, here are some you can pick from.

    A, AIR & SPA ID SE CE MU REP SEU INT M AIRCRAFT COLLECTION From the Avenger torpedo bomber, a stalwart from Intrepid’s World War II service, to the A-12, the spy plane from the Cold War, this collection reflects some of the GREATEST ACHIEVEMENTS IN MILITARY AVIATION. Photo: Liam Marshall TABLE OF CONTENTS Bombers / Attack Fighters Multirole Helicopters Reconnaissance / Surveillance Trainers OV-101 Enterprise Concorde Aircraft Restoration Hangar Photo: Liam Marshall BOMBERS/ATTACK The basic mission of the aircraft carrier is to project the U.S. Navy’s military strength far beyond our shores. These warships are primarily deployed to deter aggression and protect American strategic interests. Should deterrence fail, the carrier’s bombers and attack aircraft engage in vital operations to support other forces. The collection includes the 1940-designed Grumman TBM Avenger of World War II. Also on display is the Douglas A-1 Skyraider, a true workhorse of the 1950s and ‘60s, as well as the Douglas A-4 Skyhawk and Grumman A-6 Intruder, stalwarts of the Vietnam War.

  • Circular Administration
    Advisory US.Depanment 01 Tronsporlolion Federal Aviation Circular Administration Subject: A HAZARD IN AEROBATICS: Date: 2/28/84 At No: 91-61 EFFECTS OF G-FORCES ON PILOTS Initiated by: AFO- 800 ; Change: AAM-500; AAC-100 1. PURPOSE. Because aerobatic flying subjects pilots to gravitational effects (G's) that can impair their ability to safely operate the aircraft, pilots who engage in aerobatics, or those who would take up such activity, should understand G's and some of their physiological effects. This circular provides background information on G's, their effect on the human body, and their role in safe flying. Suggestions are offered for avoiding problems caused by accelerations encountered in aerobatic maneuvers. 2. BACKGROUND. Aerobatic flying demands the best of both aircraft and pilot. The aircraft must be highly maneuverable, yet tolerant of G-loads. The pilot must possess skill and physiological stamina. He or she must be daring, yet mindful of the aircraft's limitations as well as his or her own. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Advisory Circular No. 91-48, "Acrobatics-Precision Flying with a Purpose," dated June 29, 1977, discusses some of the airworthiness and operational aspects of aerobatics, but does not consider biomedical factors.
