This is an Extra 300S in England:

Note the loss of visibility in the front cockpit during the torque roll with the smoke on. It's a good thing this was filmed in England, because the Transport Inspectors who troll this site could lay a charge with respect to visibility and VFR distance from cloud, given the current Tribunal and Federal Court precedents.

That is dangerous doing a torque roll through the smoke! How can you check your rearview mirror for oncoming vertical traffic?

I say FINE THE BASTARD and yank his licence!

I think ICAO should make backup lights mandatory for all aerobatic capable aircraft- just like cars.
