That guy is crazy. It was awesome flying. WOW is right

 

[Tim47SIP]

Outstanding!

I don't think we would ever see anything like this in the U.S.. Reno being close. Awsome flying!

 

[MW44]

You sure are right about that soundtrack. Yikes.

We sure can, and HAVE, seen this in the U.S. This is a new event called the Red Bull Air Race, put together by guess who. In short, it's pylon racing (time trials) with aerobatics. It's held as an act (for lack of a better term, since it IS a time-trial race, with set rules, etc.) at other events, most often air shows, and, this year, Reno. (Unfortunately, all I could see of that is a kick-ass poster my friends brought back ). But yeah, good farkin' luck seeing a bridge used as an obstacle here in the U.S.

It's in its second year of existance.

Not a bad hobby for a guy who's an SWA pilot (supposedly he was the youngest captain that they've had - 31 if I remember right).
