Aero India 2007 - Photo Thread
Kartik Maybe the landing speed at the demo was high, I have seen it land at quite an easy pace.Kartik wrote:any idea how much that roll rate was ? if its as good as the Mirage, the Tejas will be one maneuverable jet ! but the landing appeared to be quite high speed..
BTW whast this MBDA missile on the LCH pylon? Is it an Anti Tank roun?

News is that the canopy opened prematurely because of this the aircraft skidded of the runway. The aircraft is believed to be a write-off.

1.The Fuselage looks in good shape.
2.We can retrieve the Engine (I presume).
3.The Right wing is in tatters.
Just plain bad luck.But how did the canopy open pre-maturely.I assume the canopy locking mechanism should be fool-proof.Not something that flips open on a bumpy landing.IJT is meant for intermediate stage training and is meant to be fool proof in this regard.
I assume we can attribute this to a technical-fault because the pilot would only open throttle after all pre-flight checks are green.This includes the canopy lock indicator.Few chances that the pilot messed up.
To be honest -I have done away with the bloatware called "Windows" and I do not use a Mac or Quicktime software for the Windows.Vick wrote:Can some convert the LCA vid to something else .mov or .wmv? Don't want to install that bloatware called RealPlayer. Or put it on youtube.
So rm it will be.
Sorry.
To me the roll rate appeared better than the Gripen. Climb and turn rate looked good. We will see more as they open up the envelope.Kartik wrote:any idea how much that roll rate was ? if its as good as the Mirage, the Tejas will be one maneuverable jet ! but the landing appeared to be quite high speed..
Sorry to see an IJT writeoff. After 7 incident free shows we have this.
> But the Gripen has a smoke trail
I have noticed Tejas also briefly emit a trail near HAL airport as it circled
then accelerated and climbed away.
the Jaguar also emits such a temporary trail sometimes, saw it few days
back on its landing run.
but neither have the permanent billow of smoke behind the Mig29A.

Does the Mig-35 engine still have smoke trails?
All AI-07 visitors please watch the Mig-35 demos carefully. If the 'smoke trail' issue has been taken care of, then that will eliminate its one strong negative for it to occupy the No. 1 contender slot for MRCA.
Many thanks in advance.

Video from Russian TV /Aero India '07. at time 01:45+ you cleary see smoke but not really in other parts of the clip.
Same with Any F404/F414 based jet (Hornet, Gripen, Tejas) they generally run smoke-less but it will of course be moments it will happen. The APU exhaust can also release smoke which Gripen did in the video at B-R's media section.
Compare with the old MIG-29 and Gripens in Hungary.

Oh that easy mate, bump up your ISO to 800 or 1600 and you will get faster shutter speeds that wont blur your image. A tripod is a liability in such crowded places, you have to make do with an on camera flash when indoors and high ISO because image stabilization will only gain you 3 stops and that might not be enough, since you are capturing motion. If you have a heavy setup then get a monopod.Harry wrote:I'm not too happy with the EOS-400D. Image stabilization is a must.
Have fun.

They are letting people in with cameras, but they stop people who ask if a camera can be taken inside and make the owners smash the camera with a sledge hammer.Anshul wrote:
I have a Trade Visitor Ticket.Can I bring my camera and mobile phone without hitches?If not what to do and what not to do.
Only joking..
Yes cameras are allowed.
No disagreement - but my mpeg 1 version of the LCA clip was 24 mb. The Original mpeg 2 was even bigger, and the raw video humongous.Dileep wrote:Embrace open standards!

wmv could have been smaller - but in this case I own the bat and the ball - so rm it will be. I have real Player 10 for Linux.
this youtube mig35 video is all russian.. i do see the radar, and the russian language something about it.

Jagan, you rock!!
Thanks a lot!!
This is not a complaint!!
Jagan Garu, what's with the six-second video of a Canberra crew in the Videos album? Do I recognize it as from the movie "Sangam"? Most BRF-ites are probably too young to remember!!
Two rounds, Indian FSAPDS and the New Israeli 125mm FSAPDS design manufactured by OFB (one on the right)

Hi Jagan -really wanted to meet you today but due to "heavy air space congestion in Bangalore" all flights into bangalore delayed .Most likely shall reach bangalore around 4-30 or so and then may be to late for yelenka.
Rest of you see you tomorrow for sure and then have lot of fun fighting over mig 35 and f-18 with the aircrafts right in front of us .
Igorr - by any chance -are you in aero india ????

Gee, thanks buddies!!
Btw, all you jingos running around in the heat of Bangalore and liaising with the organization-ocrats and having to deal with those matching blonde and brunette distractions ... ... I just wanted to assure you all that this lonely faraway jingo does appreciate your efforts ...Kapil wrote:

We are massively out of pocket on this and we are all here doing this operating at the best of our ability.

(Now where did I leave that chequebook ... ?)
Seriously, thanks for everything, guys. A lot of us do appreciate what you're doing - even if our way of showing our appreciation takes the form of repeating with increasing stridency, "More! More!! MORE!!!"
Have fun on the public days!!
The mockup was made by Tata Elxsi or Tata someone - I have a photo of that will post after watermarking.abhinav.sharma wrote:Don't no if anybody noticed but the mockup of LCH in Aero India this time seems to be significantly redesinged from previous one, and now it looks a lot more desinged for stealth.
I spoke to the HAL people there.
The LCH is a completely different animal from the Combat ALH that we saw in mock-up form in AI 2005.
The design has been made in consultation with the potential end user - and as seems to be the new norm, HAL will have to compete with others to get their helo through to the finals.
Only the rotor/engine mechanics is shared with the ALH Dhruv. The rest is new. It is meant to be a dedicated combat helo with no transport capability.
I asked about the dorsal siting of the sensor pod as opposd to the under-chin ventral siting that has been mooted by forum jingos.
The dorsal siting again has been done after consulting the "end user" who want it that way. I asked if it would not be advantageous to have a 360 degree view. The people were aware of these issues and said that in this particular case all that was required was a 120 degree forward view for targeting, with the assumption that there would be friendly forces behind the helo. I was told that the function of the sensor was for targeting, and that had it been surveillance - a 360 degree view would have been necessary.
