OK, that has to be some of the best flying I have ever seen. Very cool how they were threading parts of the race track. Bet Capt John will be putting in the flop tubes after seeing this.

It got posted on a local racing board under the title... "Drifting.... in an airplane?!"

Here's the part you didn't see. One of those blue Sukhoi's (#45) ended up like this during one of these events:

Sorry for the weird way of linking to it. If I try to link directly to the photo the site gives a message saying "Don't steal my bandwidth!"

Hey Mikey, It hurt to see that website. I think I had tears in my eyes seeing all that wrecked metal.

I did some surfing and found that teams website. Go to http://www.haute-voltige.com/en/general/news/latest.htm and click on videos. You are going to blown away by some of the stuff they are doing. Flying through caves, under bridges, under low bridges upsidedown, ect. WOW!!! I didn't however find anything about the fate of the pilot in the #45 plane that was crashing. I am sure he didn't survive.

It was Alexandre Krotov and he survived, albeit seriously injured.
