Would love to have been there. And believe me, like l said, that was impressive.
Have seen some amazing stuff like this in my life time like Sean Tucker knife edge his Bulldog Pitts at 3" down the runway in 1992.
However as l get older l see things a bit clearer (Optometrist does not agree).
In a bigger arena? Maybe.
Daytime? Maybe.
Little less closer to the ground? Maybe.
There is no Nanny-sate issue, just a regard for public safety.
Did everyone there know that was going to take place? Did they have to sign a disclaimer that if anything went wrong no one was liable?
I suspect the answer is no to both.
What a surprise when the show starts, and even better it all went to plan.
What was plan B?
I thought Sean Tucker would be dead now. But he his still doing knife edges at 3"
Good on him.
