Behind the Scenes of Racing: Red Bull Air Race Logistics from Kirby Chambliss
Preparations for the first race of the 2010 season are well underway here in Abu Dhabi. Our team hangar has been assembled and our technician Jason is feverishly working to get the Edge race ready. This year, Red Bull Air Race is introducing a new HD camera system that all of the teams are currently installing. It may seem like a small detail but adding a large electrical box with a battery to power the camera system brings up concerns of plane weight and the CG (center of gravity). We're dealing with these issues as well as adjusting minor things on the plane to comply with new rules and regulations for 2010. Right now, the most important thing is to ensure we are ready to SMOKE ON come race day in our blazing fast machine. ...

Be sure to tune in to Discovery's Science Channel on April 2nd at 8 PM ET for a fantastic look at the Sukhoi SU26M. Discovery Channel did their homework on the computer sim segments, though it is written for the lay person. The show is in HD and will be repeated several times during the week following April 2nd at different times. Rick Volker was filmed flying the SU26M at the Windsor International Airshow last summer from multiple cockpit cams, helicopters, towers, and ground crew for this expose on how man and machine can be built to take the punishment of extreme air show flight. Watch for other cable shows with similar content this summer on AviatorTV and OLN. See http://science.discovery.com/tv/machines/ for verification. Schedules posted one week prior online.

DVD Review: British Airshows 2009 by Flightline UK
The British Airshows compilation videos and DVDs have become something of an institution for airshow fans. With clips from all the major airshows up and down the country, there's no more comprehensive coverage than this. The package arrives on two DVDs. DVD 1 is the main feature while DVD 2 is exclusively Planes TV's trademark interactive in-cockpit footage.
For DVD 1, footage is obtained from all the official DVD's as well as some bespoke footage from other events. In the past, this has looked a little ragged on Video format, however the chapter format on DVD suits it well.
