I'm talking about getting plowed over by his elder. Asshole elder.

 

[stig]

Might just need glasses.
Not too many bison optometrists around, I think.

 

[FJR]

That elder was a biggun', damn!

 

[SkwerI]

I wish we could do that in traffic.

Starts a little slow, then builds.

Screw that; one ride with Mike Goulian was enough.

Sounds interesting, care to elaborate?

Sounds interesting, care to elaborate?

Mike offered to take me up in a mutual friend's T6 Texan before our pilot's association meeting last May or June, so we went.

Yes... I kissed the ground when we got back.

 

[cory]

So he's a mainiac? Is he a test pilot?

 

[NeTree]

No, he's got skilz.

He's an air racing pilot; Red Bull #99.

Awesome vid! Is it stressful on an aircraft to do that? Just being up in a glider once and finding a strong updraft got me.

 

[NeTree]

Extremely stressful on the airframe. An aircraft must be rated for aerobatics to do that, which means very strong framing, and even the fuel and and oil systems are special.

I'd rip the wings off my 172 before coming even close to any of those maneuvers. The maximum permissible wing loading in my 172P is +2.0G and -1.5G in a push-over. Race pilots push 9G's routinely.

Sure do, Wally, and when I first saw the vids that you put up, before clicking on them, i thought to myself that the guy there looked a little like John.

 

[FJR]
