PanzerFodder 0 Posted June 30, 2011 Report Share Posted June 30, 2011 I enjoyed this These Guys are a class act, and it's well worth watching the whole video, they make jumping out of an aircraft look almost like it's a new art form. Cheer's...Graham... Link to post Share on other sites

PanzerFodder 0 Posted July 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2011 These films are in German, but still worth watching if you like this type of thing Here's another Do-27 being used in a documentary called "Serengeti darf nicht sterben" (The Serengeti shall not die) Made in about 1958. It was written and directed by Bernhard Grzimek, and filmed by his son "Michael" I should also add that the young man in these videos Michael Grzimek died on-location during the filming of the documentary when the Do-27 "D-ENTE" collided with a vulture and he lost control of it. This is 1 of 9 some nice aerial footage showing them crossing the Alps and traveling down to the Serengeti http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nw8e4eXJmhw This is part 4 of 9, obviously the capturing of the poachers has be staged for the documentary, but there is still some nice low level flying to see The cool part is at 4:12 in, when he pulls the arrow out of his plane :o http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6kLWqYV09_Y If you want to see the rest of the videos they are here http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Serengeti+darf+nicht+sterben+parte+&aq=f .
