I have 1 more word for you.
MARGIN
he didn't have any, none, zip and nada.
Look, I've been a certified Aviation nut since I was born and just love a good display as much or not more than the next guy but jesus H christ..........in all my 30 years as a professional Pilot I have never witnessed such a callous disregard for safety.
If he had cartwheeled in it would have taken a huge slab of their company reputation and profit with him. Not to mention god knows how many innocent bystanders at the show who expect a certain level of PROFESSIONALISM from the Pilot's at the show.
If you want to see large transport category aircraft perform these RISKY maneuvers then do it on Microsoft Flight Sim.
