Is this real?

Post by titty »

I was looking at a weblog with pictures taken by a pilot during flight. Via a link a got a video of what must be an attack helicopter in action. But it looks very unreal to me. Are there some people on this military aviation forum who could tell me if this is what the pilots see or is it fake? It was on this http://airborne-jc.skynetblogs.be/ and here you have to click on the rotating danger sign (wright on the screen).
Thanks
M.

Looks like a military training mission in a simulator to me, because one guy gives strict orders to another one who seems to hesitate.

It's real. It's an AH-64 in action. Anyway I'll remove it.

"I have seen other reports on this film, that the actual encounter took 15 minutes most of that time the crew was observing the activitiy on the ground, which was installing an IED on the guardrail, where the second guy who gets killed is.

What you see there is probably the last minute of the engagement.

That Apache had been observing them for a while."
