In this video we take the Asobo SR-72 "Darkstar" for a time trial lap around the Mach Loop (in Microsoft Flight Simulator), as part of our Mach Loop Time Trial series.

In this series, we take various aircraft, both old and new, military and civilian and pit them against one another to see how they fare around the Mach Loop.

In each episode, we will briefly look at the history, specifications and capabilities of each aircraft, before taking an on-board run through the loop. Once our run is complete, will watch an action-replay and then see what time the aircraft was ultimately able to achieve.

Please note this video and all its contents / materials, is for entertainment / simulation purposes only.
