Wrong picture, that was the Kulbit manuever. Here is the real Cobra Manuever:




Wouldn't want to confuse anyone now would we?

Coolhand that doesnt make any sense, it said cobra at the top of the website page, are you saying this source is wrong?

Hmmm i should look more closely into my sources.

I do think you have it backwards though.

I am not trying to bite anyones heads off, I am just attempting to make sure that the correct information gets put out. If I have offended anyone I apologize.

As for pics, I do not have any on my computer. I spend all day looking at planes. Last thing I want to do is see them on my computer as well.

Not at all, you just needed to look further down the page for the actual description of the manuever. Having seen it in person I can attest that it is awesome to see.

Just look from right to left and it makes sense.

come to think of it, i have tons of pics on my comp, only the only way i know how to post pics is using the url, and i do not know where i found my pics, so i do not know how to post them.

Other wise i would have posted like 30 pics.

Shattered OUT...

good point cool
u didnt insult any 1 (i think)
i just wanted 2 stop another argument
say just wonderin is it only the su's that can do that manovoer

Thats not what i meant, it is how the plane is situated, how can it be flying on a 120 degree angle backwards and be able to push down with enough force against the air current??

would that not break off the wings?? and how would the panels stabilize the plane?

Maybe i am the one who needs to be verfiied of the full information.

Click on the Tutorial, lesson three is how to post pics on the board.

If not, then you might just have to cut and paste it into the message itself.

Hope this helps, looking forward to seeing what you have.

no.

I read during the search that F-16's pulled it off during airshows, this maneuver is not for combat, it is bad during combat, combat calls for direct attention and decision making, performing the cobra maneuver is taking time and requires emense patience.

So that is why it is done during airshows to impress the crowds on the amazing capability of aircraft.

The miracle of aerodynamics? That and the Russian love of over engining their aircraft.

would that not break off the wings?? and how would the panels stabilize the plane?

Just read the description, should clear things up for you.

Shattered OUT...

I do not know, it is using documents, and does not give me the option to copy and paste, so i am in an awkard position.

Shattered OUT...

Well errr, my only problem is that in order to post a pic, the option that is given is with url, and they are from my files so i do not know how to do it.
