I'm not a pilot, but he seemed to be almost 'flicking' at the top of each loop that he did, loosing a bit too much speed Vs. power or slightly out of trim? It all looked awesome anyways =).
Excellent, wonderful display of the mustangs maneuverability, most of the time they usually just display the mustangs speed, this does a good job of demonstrating its other performance characteristics!
@hackneysaregreat . He DID NOT 'misjudge' @3.30. You obviously do not know what you are talking about, go to East Fortune, look at the trees versus the display line, then you will see.
@chrisjhemming Agreed. There is loads of space between the tree line and the A-axis and the land dips away beyond the trees a bit too, so he was a lot further from the trees and a lot higher AGL than the video looked like. I was even closer to the trees than the camera here and so he really looked to be popping up from behind them. A great display by a good pilot.
nice sound (biiiiuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu)
