And this is why I love flying…

This video has been circulating for a few days, though for whatever reason haven’t posted it till now:

Simply stunning, probably the highest quality air-to-air video I’ve ever seen.

(Tip of the hat to Brady)

    It's like the flying paparazzi, but with willing participants.

    This seems like a Microsoft Flight Simulator video.

    My father was a pilot in the USAF, and he didn't stop flying until he was 71 years old, when he just wasn't healthy enough to do it anymore. My first flight was when I was 6 months old, and I truly believe his love of flying was passed on to me. Here's a glimpse in to what his world would have been like. It was shot entirely by pilots, and includes every thing from mock air fights to mid air refueling. I hope you enjoy. http://vimeo.com/40935850

    @Bgiagg, Lucky is a pilot.

    Great video. Although I don't see how it is related to your 'flying'. As far as I know, you are far from a pilot or even engineer type, and your 'flying' is mainly sitting/laying in a metal tube with a small hole to peek out. Does it really matter to you what the tubes look like from outside? :)

    I just didn't want it to end!

    Nice. Here's a nice video of flying in Switzerland, It's a bit long at 7min, but it gives you an idea how high you can go without an engine using the power that nature provides:
