I try to catch it or record it whenever it plays on Sky

[mikeey01]

Dam, very lucky to get a way with that.

[EJK]

Lucky that. At those speeds water would be equivalent to a concrete wall.

One life down.

Now that's flying!

I used to watch it all the time when it was on free-to-air. It's bloody good stuff.

God, I miss that shit.

Only pussies need G suits.

Only pussies need G suits.

I remember thinking the same thing, but I think its the sustained 9g turns that get the pooftas a little tired.

[marty]

try 11g!

I have an advanced aeros rating, and after a 30 minute flight with a reasonably heavy aeros session I need a lie down....and I will only pull 5 or 6 at the most. I start losing peripheral vision out at 5g sustained, unless I'm REALLY current.

Looked like he damaged the RHS undercart leg and wheel spat. Amazing flying to get away with that !!
