Redmarshall 2007 Large Model Air Show Pitts Special Crash

[PorchMonkeyBoysBack]

The thing to remember with all forms of flying is "Gravity never loses The best you can expect is a draw"

Shame about the model though I've always liked the Pitts Special.

sad I fly a elect. Pitts myself, never crashed yet, but had my first midair with an electric Jet flying in the wrong area, shes rebuilt in a day or two. Sorry for this guy

Yeh Pilot error, he needs to re-take his A test trying to show off to the crowd but the pilot didnt have the necessary skills to do it, what a waste of a lovely plane

Pilot error..

[Nowak98765]

[Grandadap]

Cheaper!

[SuperPianowizard]

@Grandadap But less fun :L

[boumitch]

I'm sad and happy at same time...

Sad for pilot, time spent building is plane.

Happy, no one got hurt.

[bjofuruh]

Good thing is: The pilot is standing safe and sound on Terra Firma. Not so with the full size plane.

[keeprighton2007]

he wants a big plastic bag for THAT

It's realy sad - that plane is pretty expensive! The Pits-Special is a classic plane and won so many prices - also a friend of mine died in a Pits-Crash in Germany (Kirchdorf am Inn Airfield) in a crash, caused by a to slow turn in low altitude after he did an airshow. This plane is nice, but dificult to fly in low speed - never underestimate the danger of flying slow and in low altitude with this plane!!!!!

[volker001]

misjudgement can be costly!

[Grandadap]

True!

[volker001]

yeah most times - and never forget... when you fly inverted... down is up - and up is expensive!

Thats not funny for RC Pilots only for spectators.

I wreckt an 2,8 meters Extra 300 this no good feeling:(

God damn, what a waste. That has pilot error written all over it, it is quite obvious too. That was a nice plane, oh well. It happens to the best of us.

[chrisfev01]

Well, there goes about $10,000 USD and three years of work. Bummer.

[bjofuruh]

A little late on the roundout Mr. Hoshkins?

[nmfan99]
