I am looking for the Intermediate Power Know sequence but the IAC site isn't showing the same sequence as are being performed. Could someone point me in the right direction, please?
Also just watched a few seconds of the live feed, completely SILENT and recorded on a hand held camera. When the aircraft are worth hundreds of thousands of dollars? It's baffling.
If anyone cares, Red Bull would do a good job of packaging this event to be, you know, interesting to watch. Like NASCAR or whatever. Close ups of the pilots, interviews & profiles, on board footage, commentary, spectators aka fans, technical insights, judging rules, scores... A static camera strapped to the control tower pointing in the direction of the apron and a list of pilots obscuring the scene...meh.
I'm sorry. But I was brought up with old school aerobatics! I'm sure this statement will get a Lot Mad! But too damn bad! These new pilots depend on pure power, what would happen if they tried this routine dead stick?? Can we please bering back real Aerobatics???
Check out the full playlist from the 2023 US Nationals: ru-vid.com/group/PLdVqOIuzYwKzX1B7wT0hHtePnof3ZLM4p. Pilots from multiple categories including, Power and Gliders are flying Primary, Sportsman, Intermediate, Advanced and Unlimited. There were many types of aircraft being flown including a variety of Pitts Specials, Decathlons, an RV-14, and a Giles 200. Of course, a variety of gliders, which have no power at all... ;-)
Enjoyed the vid. I just watched the CP Cassatt vid. I had one for a while when I lived on Amelia Island. My first landing was on I-95. Never forger our little tumble with the Red Baron’s.
They were all great! Rob is just on another level! His record speaks for itself and how incredible he really is. Rob Holland and Sean Tucker have always been my favorites at airshows. What those guys can do with their airplanes is crazy like you're watching an R/C airplane. All of these pilots are incredible and I still wonder how their bodies can handle the maneuvers they perform. Great flying by all!
Music would have been better. IMO the commentary didn't add much and if anything it detracted from the flights. Best would be to hear only the engine/prop.
Killer commentary @nagoyalukas & @kahaaerosports, nice work! Stooopid COOL flying and excellent camera work as well! Thanks for making it so much fun y'all.
