A friend forwarded this to me. With quite a few pilots on F-Chat, thought you would enjoy seeing it. Runs about 6 1/2 minutes. KevFla http://guyrevel.free.fr/WGP/FAI_WGP_2002.wmv
Yep that was pretty cool. One of these days soon I will finish up my flight training and I am still planing on buying a Pitts Aerobatic, so hopefully that will be me in a few years.
Very nice. What is the location? Looks over a GP track, many Asian faces in the crowd, but not the Chinese GP track. Thanks for the link.
Absolutely bloody brilliant! 30 years in aerospace and an honours degree tells me they can't do that! "but they just did" "- no, they can't - don't you know anything about aerodynamics?" "but they just did, and here's the video to prove it" "- ok, I give in. I'll just hand my degree back to the university"
A very clever video - aren't Russian pilots the best? Just so there are no illusions (um delusions) there are shots of very well piloted 1/4 scale aircraft too. I like it a lot, as it takes real skill to fly an RC aircraft that well, and it compliments the focus, intensity, and skill of the full scale pilots flying at the same location. Question is - which track? I think I saw the Suzuka Spoon curve in one shot, but I think I saw Motegi in another. My computer won't let me take screen shots for some reason, blast! otherwise I would post them. Cheers, Jon
