Here are another couple of flights from Barcelona Jets 2021, first one shows Ralf Buege's huge and super-scale PC-21 from Skymaster powered by a JetCat SPT 10, then a TNT Models 1/7th scale F-16 by Vicente Ruano powered by a Jets Munt Merlin M90 turbine engine.
The Skymaster suffered an engine stop towards the end of the flight and the pilot had to land without power. He touched down slightly short of the runway (no big deal with the trailing link struts) but otherwise managed fantastically an emergency situation and brought the model back in one piece! :)
0:00 - PC-21 Flight
4:11 - Engine shutdown and emergency landing
5:14 - F-16 Flight
Barcelona jets is an international R/C jet meeting organized in Catalonia, at the RACBSA model aircraft Club in Montcada i Reixac, next to Ripollet in Catalonia, just a short drive from Barcelona. The original idea was to celebrate another 'Cerdanya Jets' (which got cancelled back in 2020 due to the global pandemic) but there were problems with the new aerodrome manager so instead the event came back to its origins... sad to an extent, as the organization was forced to limit assistance, but it was also cool to have this amazing event back at our local Club! :)

![JAS-39 GRIPEN IN ACTION! ✈️ FLYGFESTEN 2022 Sunset Flight [Remastered]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/abT6CFOz8Ws/mqdefault.jpg "JAS-39 GRIPEN IN ACTION! ✈️ FLYGFESTEN 2022 Sunset Flight [Remastered]
This was the first time I got to see a Gripen fly at an airshow, what a blast!!! :DDD
... And gotta love and appreciate the extra beauty of a sunset flight display with a fighter jet blasting the afterburner! ^^
I had already uploaded the raw version of this video previously but now I took the time to stabilize the footage and color correct it so it would be even more enjoyable to watch!
Hope you appreciate it! ^^
Old version (raw): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7zFlFkM02c
The Saab JAS 39 Gripen is a light single-engine multirole fighter aircraft manufactured by the Swedish aerospace and defense company Saab AB. The Gripen has a delta wing and canard configuration with relaxed stability design and fly-by-wire flight controls. Later aircraft are fully NATO interoperable. As of 2020, more than 271 Gripens of all models, A–F, have been built.
The Gripen is intended as a light-weight and agile aerial platform with advanced, highly adaptable avionics. It has canard control surfaces that contribute a positive lift force at all speeds, while the generous lift from the delta wing compensates for the rear stabiliser producing negative lift at high speeds, increasing induced drag. Being intentionally unstable and employing digital fly-by-wire flight controls to maintain stability removes many flight restrictions, improves manoeuvrability, and reduces drag. The Gripen also has good short take-off performance, being able to maintain a high sink rate and strengthened to withstand the stresses of short landings. A pair of air brakes are located on the sides of the rear fuselage. The canards also angle downward to act as air brakes and decrease landing distance. It is capable of flying at a 70–80 degrees angle of attack.
To enable the Gripen to have a long service life, roughly 50 years, Saab designed it to have low maintenance requirements. Major systems such as the RM12 engine and PS-05/A radar are modular to reduce operating cost and increase reliability. The Gripen was designed to be flexible, so that newly developed sensors, computers, and armaments could be integrated as technology advances. The aircraft was estimated to be roughly 67% sourced from Swedish or European suppliers and 33% from the US.
One key aspect of the Gripen programme that Saab have been keen to emphasize has been technology-transfer agreements and industrial partnerships with export customers. The Gripen is typically customized to customer requirements, enabling the routine inclusion of local suppliers in the manufacturing and support processes.

Flygfesten is one of the biggest airshows in Europe. It attracts around 50.000 attendees. Flygfesten is an eventful weekend with world class pilots and airplanes. Flygfesten has been organized every three to four years since the re-launch in 1986. It is held in Sweden by Västerdalarnas Aero club, an aeroclub located in Dala-Järna in Vansbro municipality, with about 7000 inhabitants.
Flygfesten is a non-profit arrangement and is held to promote the activity of the club in particular and to aviation in general. It offers a good forum for aviation enthusiasts to meet other like minded, while it is a fine opportunity for the Club to recruit new members.

![SHE IS STEALTH AND STEALS YOUR HEART! ✈️ SU-57, MAKS 2015 [Remastered]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/cHnppel-R64/mqdefault.jpg "SHE IS STEALTH AND STEALS YOUR HEART! ✈️ SU-57, MAKS 2015 [Remastered]
The gorgeous, stealthy Su-57 steals the hearts of everyone present at the airshow at the hands of Sergey Bogdan with such an astounding display of post-stall maneuvers and pulling clouds out of thin air that leaves everyone marvelled! :D
This is an old Su-57 video from MAKS 2015 with very cool shots that I decided to remaster now that I have better tools to make it look as good as possible. :)
Sergey Bogdan (Сергей Богдан) is the chief test pilot of the Sukhoi Company, so he is the best suited to perform these sort of mind-boggling flight performances with the Sukhoi Su-57, a russian 5th generation fighter aircraft.
The Sukhoi Su-57, previously designated T-50 (Сухой Су-57 / T-50) is a single-seat, twin-engine, stealth fighter aircraft with multirole capability but designed for air superiority and attack operations. This jet aircraft is the product of the PAK-FA (ПАК-ФА, Перспективный авиационный комплекс фронтовой авиации, literally Prospective Aviation Complex of Frontline Aviation), a fifth-generation fighter programme of the Russian Air Force. The first prototype performed the maiden flight on January 29, 2010. Deliveries of production aircraft to the Russian Air Force are expected to begin in 2018.
The fighter is intended to succeed the MiG-29 and Su-27 in the Russian Air Force and to serve as the basis for the Fifth Generation Fighter Aircraft (FGFA) while complementing the recently built fleets of SU-35S and SU-30SM. The initial production batch are to be delivered with a highly upgraded variant of the AL-31F engine, extensively used by the Su-27 family while a totally new turbofan jet powerplant is being designed from scratch. In fact the first prototype of this engine has already been fitted into a SU-57 airframe and has already begun testing.
The Su-57 has a blended wing body fuselage and incorporates all-moving horizontal and vertical stabilizers. The aircraft incorporates thrust vectoring nozzles and has adjustable leading edge vortex controllers (LEVCONs) that improve high angle of attack behaviour. The advanced flight control system and thrust vectoring nozzles make the aircraft highly maneuverable in both pitch and yaw, enabling it to perform post-stall maneuvers such as the Pugachevs Cobra and the Bell maneuver, along with doing flat rotations with little altitude loss. The aircrafts high cruising speed and normal operating altitude is also expected to give it a significant kinematic advantage over older fighter jet generations.
