Lockon's Flanker

This is a brief but quite impressive demonstration of the Su-27's capabilities in Lockon (with 3 minutes of fuel). Important to note that I did not fly the plane, don't complain or complement about the angles or flying, it's not me, it came as a track file with Lockon: Flaming Cliffs. However, feel free to comliment me on anything else in the video, the music, intro, credits, etc. ***NOTE*** the title letters originally appeared with the music, looking really cool, but in format conversion to .flv on the site it got screwed up. Sad, I spent 3/4 of my time on that. Correct, higher-res version available at:

It looks unrealistic for two reasons. One: the Flanker in LO:FC uses a relatively simple flight model in which major maneuvers such as the two high-alpha ones he performed are simply set-in-stone animation. And second, being in a sim allowed the pilot to take risks that not even the clinically insane would consider in real life. I certainly know I wouldn't take the wing within a foot of terra-firma.

Simple flightmodel or not, only a hand full know how to fly maneuvers like this in lockon, and it is certainly not easy to do.
About the risk, ofcourse no-one is doing crazy stuff like this in real life ;) Real or not real, ppl like it.
