Lovely video, great cutting between the inside and the outside. You see a lot of the neck muscle tensions a pilot in one of those planes has to endure with those gigantic control surfaces!

That last sequence with the extreme alpha at zero altitude really would be nice to see IRL!

No, I mean fun.
You don't have to fly it in a sports way if you can't, you know.
You can fly it to enjoy it to the edge of your own personal fun limit even if that means that you fly it like a retired old man.
It should still be fun.

Some pain can feel good. . . I might be a masochist though. Actually no I'm not, and I still love it.

You don't HAVE to push a bunch of negative G if ya don't wanna.

Well, I've only done a full bunt once witch gives you negative G:s for a long time. To avoid all friends asking me for days if I where out drinking all night I will avoid it in the future... Everything in my eyes that is normally white was red :) Some short periods of negative G works, but at the bottom of that bunt I could really feel those arteries bursting :)

It's interesting with negative G:s. When flying aerobatics with friends that have not done it before you call pull 9 positive G (for a short period) and they yell "Cool - do that again!". Then you do 2 negative G and they scream "Oaaahhh - that was scary, don't do it again!". After that they go silent and you hear them opening the ventilation at full blow... :)
