What can you do with a drunken ... pilot :D
« on: January 31, 2011, 04:48:56 PM »
Have you seen this?
Serious skill. I actually got teased a bit in a 1947 supercruiser this summer, bunting-zooming, but we did not do the wingtippie :D
Enjoy, it is hilarious

It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)

In person,  :ahand   well at least Greg Koonts, same plane, similar thing.  There's a number of excelent performers that go around the country in Super Cubs.

Gpwurzel and I saw him last summer at NAS Ventura/Pnt. Magu, always fun to watch, especialy when there's something new.  Last year it was ending the show with landing it on the back of a pickup truck, but I think that's Greg Koonts' trademark thing. 


Here's a shot I took after he performed for the day:

I think I've posted the actual video before. Never gets old watching it. I had forgotten about it, actually. Thanks for bringing it back.  :aok
