3D Hovering Jet !!!
 

Hey Guys,

This is almost unbelievable !
A turbine powered jet that can do a sustained nose up hover.
It is a Composite-ARF Rookie 2 with a P-160 and thrust vectoring in pitch and yaw.
Piloted by Wolfgang Kluhr.

The prop plane is my Composite-ARF 3.3 meter Yak 55 SP with a DA-150.

Wolfgang demonstrated absolute control while flying the Rookie 2 and even did a harrier circle around the Yak.
He also did a loop around it and a high speed pass UNDER it.
I think that SKS video may have got this on tape.
Wolfgang can also do PERFECTLY flat flat spins and Knife-edge pin wheels at INSANE rotational speeds.

Hey Rod,

This just took place at Super Jet South @ Georgia Jets this past week. Sept. 27th through the 30th.

Video ?
As far as video goes, I think the only person that has it on tape is SKS video.
I guess we just have to wait for them to get the video togther and for sale.

There are 3 more pics here in post #67:

I was there this weekend and that was my first time seeing turbine jets fly. Man they are awesome! They sound unreal. Not as loud as I thought they would be but way cool sound. Unfortunately I left a before I got to see these two planes fly. I talked to the owner of the Yak and he was a real great guy to talk to the plane. I learned a bit that day.
