wow must admit that looked hard to do, but what a strange gift to own from birth.

Did anyone else find that music really annoying, I had to mute it to watch the clip. There's a pilot who flies a stunt plane over the fields near here who does the hanging on the propellor thing then drops sideways and it looks really spectacular.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

That thing must be amazingly light - it stayed up with very little air-speed. Never mind the pilot skills - that's an impressive bit of light-weight technology.

Only a model! I think you'll find flying a model is more difficult than flying the real thing

It's a stunt plane (and at a wild guess, an electric one), so static wing loading will be very low.

Great bit of flying - from someone who could take off, fly around and land (most of the time)

Ah yeah, I did do something that pilot didn't do.

I built the planes from plans and they cost around £250.
