I'm starting to doubt your location is really from Planet Earth...

i'm not sure exactly what is so "cool" here.  Maybe if this was done upside down I would think it mildly interesting.

Eh .... I liked the trollbait that used the hackerish spelling better.

See if you can hook `em with a challenge to auto takeoff better than you can. :D

PS: anyhow, the lowest you can go is exactly proportionate to your prop size.   20ft is a walk in the park mate, a walk in the park.

Umm ... those are screenshots from a film. I few with cocpit view only, it is a lot more difficult to do that using outside views. And how tall is the tail on a 190? Yeah you're right, it's probably 3 or 4 feet.
