Paris Air Show 2019 - Thunders in Europe

A fantastic take off and a high alfa. And they say JFT is underpowered. NOT!!!! Lets see at the real display.
Araz
when i saw that take off, actually the first thing really came to my mind was that how much its under powered!!

Watch PAF F-16 display in Izmir in 2011. They do the same that JFT does in this video. And F-16's TWR is clearly on display in that video. That display looks this JFT's video a slow moving F16 from Izmir.

Impressive display!

Whoever piloted that JF-17 needs to be hired to test the J-10B and J-11D fighter planes.
Sq Ldr Zeeshan.

Watch Wd CDR Ronald or Khalid's F-16 display in Izmir in 2012. They do the same that JFT does in this video. And F-16's TWR is clearly on display in that video. That display looks this JFT's video a slow moving F16 from Izmir.


Wing Commander Zeeshan.

off course my brother.

Anyone saying JF-17 to be equal or better than F-16 must get their head examined by the butcher in our mohallah. hahaha.

JF-17 is a filler plane, support plane for much superior F-16.

Given a chance, and supply reliability, PAF would go for F-16 in a heart beat.

Affordability and availability are the downside of F-16 and hence JF-17.

We should be proud that PAF is there in Paris. This is a HUGE.

Hope you don't ruin this achievement by talking about F-16..
 
in international airshow it will be taken to heart by many around the world in coming days if they dont do something abt it.
Bro that smoky engine showed its strength at the take off.Not every engine can support such a maneuver at take off. People are more interested in performance rather than in aesthetics :)

The manoeuvre has little to do with the engine and more to do with kinetic energy built up at the takeoff roll.

Indeed but T/O and Landing are two most criticle phases of flying which gives less time of reaction and result in catastrophic result in case of any serious malfunction.Kinectic energy rather i would call it momentum was given by the engine and engine supported the aircraft in maintaining that momentum all the way into skies.
 
Tom Cruise's younger cousin, you mean?

I completely agree no doubt but what i said was in the reference to its engine still being under powered, which must change.
