Crashpro,
That was too funny. Including the victory role!!
I do feel sad for the Spit pilot. It always hurts to lose a plane. I have looked over the original vid several times, even did a little stop action thing. I am no expert, but it appears that the Spit is getting lower that the pilots was comfortable he added a bit of rudder. "NO THE OTHER LEFT" the wrong rudder input. That could be why there is a double bump just prior to it hitting the deck. I wasn't on the sticks, so I am guessing.
However, great vid of the 109 claiming a kill.
Dumb thumbs?,...nay...highly doubtful,...Duane is mucho excellent pilot...matter of fact, he's the 'go to' guy when it comes to maiden flights of new airplanes at the field. Heres a short video of him doing a flyby with his scratch built delta wing of his own design.
