This is just some of the footage I got personally and not the trailer for the "official" video. Can't wait to see what the pros come up with!

Some of the pix are awesome!
Count me in for a preorder today.
Thanks

That looks a little sideways...with the left tire looking pretty overworked...I wonder what my landings look like in freeze frame?

My worst landing of the weekend and it is all caught on video and stills, luck me

So the story goes like this. Kevin says the bail out is up the hill, ok. Jeremy's engine quits on roll out in front of me so I abort.

Now I am the last or 2nd to last to land. So there is like 10 planes parked. All is well until I am committed. Then it sinks in I am at 9000 plus MSL, DA well above 10,000 MSL

Now bare in mind I am a sea level guy. The ground is going buy like 60MPH, but this isn't the part that freaked me out. All my buddies airplanes are in my bail out zone.

So my brian is SCREAMING DON'T HIT THE PLANES!!!! So I'm like fuck it, don't even think of finessing it, get it down and stopped. I think the pictures tell how well that worked out.

I think the guys said it was the shortest land of the group, something like 350' and I came way to close to putting it on it's nose.

There was a whole lot wrong with that one!!! But I flew it away, so I think that gets it in the great landing classification! Ya, right, who am I kidding.

That Maule spring gear takes a lot to make it flex, and those 29" Air Hawks will take a lickin. I don't recommend this type of air frame testing.

Cheers...Rob
