Red Bull speed gliding
Speed gliding is all about flying your hang glider as fast as possible through a series of gates. Ever heard the expression “treetop level” ? Well, guess you can call this one grasstop level. Sit back and enjoy this wild and crazy ride.
Achtung Spitfire
I think after this close encounter with a Spitfire somebody needs a change of underwear. Guess who? That was really close, wasn’t it?
Biplane bites the dust
This pilot was trying to entertain the crowds with some low level aerobatic stunts. Worked just fine but he pulled out too low, sending him on a one way ticket trip to destination dust. And boy, did he bite the dust…
F-16 freaky low flyby
This Viper pilot really managed to entertain. You can quite hear the “Wows” and “Uhas” as he takes his F-16 Falcon on a really low flyby at high speed. Great stuff!
Jumbo low
Have you ever wondered what a Jumbo Jet would look like really close to the ground? And i don’t mean while on the runway… NO, doing some low level flybys, feeling the mazing sound of those four roaring turbojets… Oh, yeah! This South African Boeing 747 really delivers. Check out this amazing flick.
Cool landing
A KLM Boeing 747 comes in for the landing at St. Marten Airport. NO, he is not going to crash, it is standard procedure at this airport to come low over the beach. This is really cool landing, and must be quite a sight.
Cropdusting is fun
If you don’t believe me watch this video and you’ll see what i mean. Flying low and fast… quite a rush. That cropduster is not really the most agile of planes, but still, this shows how fun aviation is.
Le Puma du Tchad
Helicopters are fun to fly and these guys have probably the best job in the world. French Army Puma helicopters fly low and dirty in Tchad. It really doesn’t get any better than this. These guys are crazy!
