I'd love to see that guy and his B-29 at an air show sometime. But if he ever stencils "Enola Gay" on the nose of his mini fortress, I'm not going to stick around to watch his flight exhibition.
I read your post before I watched the video so I was expecting to see the X-1. I was NOT expecting to see the X-1 be dropped and then fly around on it's own. And how do you top that? Why, have the B-29 crew bail out! Not only does the builder have extraordinary mechanical skills but he also has a wonderful imagination. Great video.
