I bet not as good as him.

Sean Tucker

This guy takes risk to a new level.

I put it up in the BK forum. But everyone should see this. Maybe some of you have tho.

Saw him at Burke Lakefront this summer at the Cleveland Air Show. That dude is fluff'n SICK! He pulled some stunts that would make the likes in here whine about FMs and Physics for years to come!

FM is way over modeled, airfoils cannot fly at a 90 degree angle threw the air

Sean Tucker is a dweeb

WOW that was incredible! Negative G master. All bow before him for we are truly not worthy.

how he can tumble like that and still maintain some sort of orientation of you and your surroundings is amazing. He's literelly a stones throw away from the ground at some points inverted making a pass and right after going through some insane set of tumbles or snap rolls. i try that in aces high and i auger

Matter of time unfortunately.

He's one of the best for a reason...

Practice and a lot of gas money.

They rebuild that plane every year. There are always some cracked ribs etc. He flies the sizznit out of that thing. There's no replacement for small airframes, loads of power and lots of skill!!

Someday... LOL

I'll be reading about him in the obituaries no doubt... Was awesome stuff, really enjoyed how long he was hanging on prop.

LOL just because you just passed you PPL..........

but heck, CONGRATULATIONSmate, when can i come visit you?

yeah also, that guy can really fly. i rekon in secret he can do it without even a plane just sorta hover and swish about with his arms out.

Also there is a reason he has a biplane

We need some of them in here. lol

Anybody ever watched these Pitts Specials at airshows and wondered what it woulda been like to mount a couple of machine guns on them and time warp back to WWI - with the Sopwiths and Fokkers?

Come on, I can't be the only one.........

or could I?

i thought about taking modern bipes back to WW1, but i came to the conclusion that our bipes are generally ugly as sin compared to the real deal back then.

but yeah, you would kick booty.

Ummmmmm

No matter where you are in the air.
You are literally a stones throw from the ground.

Which is where he is going to eventually end up in a very hard way.

As Filth just said.

Only a matter of time

I see that with FW-A5 everyday in the MA. Just get on their 6, and you get a show better than that.
