Next Monday SBS premieres a new 5 part series, Rise of the Machines.
It takes us inside machines in close up detail, to explore what helps these elite ships, trucks, trains and aircraft rise above all other machines.
From the world’s biggest mega truck to one of the world’s fastest trains…from the world’s most advanced aircraft carrier to a revolutionary airship….from a super smart heavy lift ship to an ingenious heavy lift helicopter…. ground breaking CGI animation explodes the machines apart to uncover the extraordinary inventions hidden under their skin that enables the teams who drive, fly and sail them to be at the top of their game.
This series transforms our understanding of the machines around us.
Episode One: Super Train
This premiere episode looks at one of the world’s fastest trains – the Italo AGV – to reveal the extraordinary technology that it depends on to race 500 kilometres in less than four hours.
Monday, 12 October at 9.30pm on SBS

Next Sunday 18/10/13 5:30pm - 6:30pm
7TWO Sydney

Mighty Planes
Omega Air Tankers

We go behind the scenes as one of Omega's 707 Tankers takes part in FIREX - a three-day live fire operation over the deserts of Southern California. Its job is to refuel thirsty F/A-18 Hornets and Harrier jets participating in the manoeuvres. Nerves of steel, sharp eyes and a steady hand are essential for pilots aboard both the 707 Tanker and the receiver jets. Turbulence, wing-tip vortices, and human error - all could spell disaster in a heartbeat.

Note: 707's are the ex-RAAF tanker fleet purchased some years back

Tonight on 7Two
The Passenger Who Landed a Plane

7:30pm - 8:30pm

The remarkable story that follows 77-year-old John Wildey who was being flown home after a day out in north Lincolnshire. After 10 minutes, the pilot collapsed at the controls, 1500 feet in the air. Against all odds, with no flying experience, John had to do the unthinkable and land the plane in pitch darkness.
