    crazy skills! that close to the ground, there is no room for error..that plane's stall speed is just above a brisk walk..makes one wonder: how did this guy 'discover' his talent for stunt-flying!:eek:

    thanks

    Shows just how forgiving a Piper cub is, what a great little plane. I think they stall right around 40mph. Great for short takeoff's into a headwind!
    Check your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service.

    Even crazier to me is that guy has NO safety gear on. I don't know that it would do much so close to the ground and all, but you'd think at least a helmet....
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    Man...
    I need to try that in FSX...I had a hard enough time with x-wind landings in a Piper Archer

    Cool vid. Was on a video watchathon a while back and saw this video. Also remember a video of a jet fighter doing very low flying over a desert road. The fighter plane was so low a truck pulled out from a side road and he had to tilt the right wing up about 2 feet to keep from taking the front of the truck off.
