I'm a lowly fixed wing guy but this is incredible. It may be a demonstration of great skill to a seasoned fling wing operator but my ass would have a death grip on the seat cushion if I was the cameraman! No outs here!

Reminds me of that great quote from another Fling Wing Movie.

"Think were gonna make it........."
"Nope....."

The correct phrase would be:\

"Think we can fit through there?"
"Nope"

"Ohhh ye of little faith..."

WHACK

That was an entertaining display of pretty good flying. You've gotta give credit to those that have no sense of logic. At least that guy did the video correctly and didn't paste his face on it.

He did however, put his name and I assume the name of the pilot at the end

Didn't watch the credits but if that is true then it all comes together and makes sense.

I liked the part where he flew right under that moose!

Would have liked to see some of that flying from the moose's point of view..

Cheers,

Murphy's law dictates that you will crash doing something totally safe and mundane, while this guy will continue to enjoy himself for many years.

Laws do not define what is safe and what is unsafe. They only define what is legal and illegal.
