Amazing. He had to get the left wing out of play (no lift), then fly it knife-edge and hang it on the prop. Goes to show you - you can't have too much horsepower.Jack

As some of you fliers know, and have pointed out, power helped a lot, but his skill was also well demonstrated in pulling out of the initial fall and doing that loop to recover some control, space, and speed.Your Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon
It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

Hate to burst everyone's bubble, but this is a commercial for KillaThrill. When I first watched it I had my doubts, and did some searching on it and found this website that confirms that it is fake.

I guess for real airplane flying its fun to see those crop dusters spraying in the summer around here. They are nuts and they were all over this year. We had one crash about 3/4 mile from us a couple years ago, nobody got hurt though.

Check out some of the videos of "Pugachev's Cobra" maneuver. It apparently only works on jets with vectored thrust. The pilot pulls the nose up past vertical, essentially initiating a tail slide, then flops it back down and zips off.
