RE: impressed????
You said don't mention names so I wont mention Ali's but at The Shkespeare Rally last year he was flying the Strikemaster with virtually no one but me watching.
Nothing spectacular in terms of aerobatics and throwing it around, it just was graceful, flowing, atmospheric and incredible. He also made excellent use of the smoke system to amplify not replace manouveres. It was the kind of flight that just made you stand still and remember you were pitched against nature!!!
