Airplane vs. Helicopter Drag Race

Wayne Handley races his Raven aerobatic plane against Jim Cheatham in the R-22 helicopter. The rules are from a standing stop to one quarter mile down the runway, then back to the start line. Jim was a helicopter pilot in the Army and Wayne a fighter pilot in the Navy. Ahhh, the feud continues!


Wayne Handley / Turbo Raven Airshow / Moffett Field 1999

Wayne Handley's Turbo-Raven is the culmination of his dream to have an aerobatic plane that could out perform anything in the world. The one-type-design Turbo-Raven boasts a 750 HP Pratt & Whitney PT6A-25C turbine engine coupled to a Hartzell 3 blade composite propeller. The propeller produced 2,800 pounds of thrust for the 1,600 pound Turbo-Raven.

F-22 Raptor Video - California Capital Airshow - 2007

New F-22 Raptor video produced at the California Capital Air Show in 2007 in Sacramento, California. Pilot Major "Max" Moga describes each maneuver he performed at the show.

The flight demonstration was nothing short of spectacular! The thrust vectoring nozzles really enhance the maneuverability. Watching the flight control system work during the tail slide was mind boggling- every flight control surface was "twitching" as the F-22 started sliding backwards.

Shooting at Woodland-Davis Aeromodelers event

Shooting Radio Control aircraft is a tremendous challenge. The speeds approach 200 mph and maneuverability is "off the scale". Being only 50 feet from the aircraft as it flys by at 100-200 mph is a rush.
