Nice one...and on the same site, the Su-30 at the exact opposite end of the spectrum: fully powered falling!

That was neat!

Did you all see the B-2 crash video on that site? Talk about a major stall.

"Yee Haw!"
now, let's hope his insurance agent doesn't get a look at the video and change his rating to "bad risk".
Sure it's a thrill, but I'm not sure I'd be lining up to fly with him

Think I'd have to agree with you srgalahad. Sure looks like fun and a challenge, but sometimes these flat farm fields of Indiana look pretty good.

He is definately a wild man, lol...

He also did that video that Bill Leaming found, posted earlier today. He lands on the pointed tops of those huge mountains, somehow... (somehow.. )

The crazy part is how he turns around up there, lol.. You have to see that.
