that my friend is one hell of a pilot to use the power of his engine to hold himself up, and at the last second, roll over and set her down....very impressive....

I am a pilot... and i can tell you without doubt this is a fake. It looks apparently altered and merged with an R/C aircraft. Ahh the magic of home video editing. The landing and it's short distance is impossible in a real aircraft not to mention the sudden deceleration would have probably killed the pilot.

I have seen several R/C planes continue to fly but they have unbelievable power to weight ratio.

Although real aerobatic aircraft can fly knife edge there is no way they would e able to transition that at such a slow speed to a level landing that then takes a short hop and stops in 50 feet.

So yes it is unbelievalble

What it is... a viral marketing campaign for a clothing company
