Pretty amazing. I first thought that it was a somewhat mediocre render but started to realize that the images are real but were collected with a low-end camcorder. This guy has mastered landing and taking off like a condor. He is "wearing" his air craft like a suit.

Not so sure Mike that particular Plane is well over 50 years old, if you are very lucky it will be flying near by when you are stranded  ;)
