RE: yak video
What whaturi is failing to mention is he was doing this in steady 10 knot winds with gusts to 15 knots. For those of you who do not know, a knot is 1.3 miles per hour and our windsock is a 15knot windsock.
If you watch the walls, he was doing them downwind. In no wind, this plane just stands up instead of standing up and sliding 50 feet.
If you also did not notice, the year in the name of the video is 200 years into the future [X(] <SHRUG> Just goes to show you not to do this when you are wore out from a day at the field
Oh yea, this flight was approx flight 13 for him on this plane and we just got the engine running very well
