    Looks like a jackass stunt

    Hey folx happy new year, first and foremost..

    I found this video of a russian stuntplane. This was in Ukraine, I believe, as you would NEVER see a thing like this here in the US.
    Check it out!!!!

    this could happen in the US, its just a simple stuntplane, etc.. They have things like this all the time at Air Shows.

    Yes, but at airshows you have a strict, regulated airspace where the pilots are certified to perform these tricks. How many times have you seen somebody pull this off under the brooklyn bridge? Or any metropolitan area? They'd probably get several years in jail...
    Of course I'm the man for the job! What is the job, by the way?

    hmm the stunt is really nice but bear in mind that you can do alot of things with an extra300S

    what i find very 'impressive' are the people that dear standing so close...
    (they obvious don't fully realize the danger they are in)

    Actually a Sukhoi SU-26...the russian version of the Extra.

    And I would have liked to have seen that feat in person!

    Nice. I don't think I would like to be on the bridge that the airplane was flying under. I heard that there was this skyscraper in Texas with a big hole in the middle of it and a pilot flew through it. He was fined and lost his pilot licsene. I'm sure it scared the shiz out of the people in the building.
