Coyote Ugly's Mentor??

This was on SC.org. A really cool video. Hair landings in the Alps with a super cub, back n 1960. Watch the last part.

I agree with Gump, C.U.'s type of flying is a lot more demanding, the other guy had plenty of room in comparison, both length and width. The last takeoff was not demanding at all, the steeper the better! Nice footage though.
I've been looking at a lot of ski setups, and I did like the way his front bungees went to the fire wall (or so it seems) rather then further back to the gear fittings. I spent an hour blowing out 200' of my runway the other day, now its snowing again :evil: It'll be good boarding up on the mountain however :D

Re: Coyote Ugly's Mentor??

I thought it was pretty cool. Although I don't think I'd wanna stop my airplane pointing uphill
An easy way to cope with the language barrier for those that get frustrated easy:
Turn the the little volume on the vid down (not the master) and turn the volume on your itunes (or whatever you use} up instant way to make most any video better...
