Never before performance! Qatari Air Force F-15/QA has made its formal public debut in style this week and has been wowing the crowds at the Dubai Airshow. Unburdened by any stores, without its conformal fuel tanks, and with outstanding fly-by-wire flight controls system, the airframe is rated to handle up to 9Gs while maneuvering, but the flight systems can be set to allow for up to 12Gs in an "emergency." Equipped with a pair of powerful F110-GE-129 engines rated for 30k Ib of thrust with afterburners. This is the most maneuverability for any F-15 variant achieved without thrust vectoring performing a tailslide, abrupt pulls, and extreme high-alpha flying. When asked, what is the angle of attack (AoA) limit is on the F-15QA, Boeing said: “There isn’t one.”! #airshow #aviation FL360aero

And… following my previous post, a little video if you are interested to know a bit more about the Special Day of Flying.

Many are not aware that Air France's first few Aerospatiale-BAC Concorde aircraft were delivered in the airline's pre-1976 livery. Variations of this earlier color scheme had been used for decades by the French flag carrier. It was replaced by what could legitimately be called the very first "Euro-white" look. This is the design the company still uses, in slightly modified form, today. F-BTSC is seen here in the old livery, having been photographed in early 1976 at Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport. Sadly is was -BTSC which became the first, and only, Concorde to be involved in a fatal crash (in the year 2000 on departure from this very airport). After a long grounding for safety modifications the Anglo-French supersonic transports were returned to service with Air France and British Airways in 2001. The type was then permanently grounded in 2003 due largely to continuing very low load factors during the worldwide air traffic downturn in the wake of the September 11, 2001 attacks on New York and Washington D.C.
