I like those youtube videos.  May not be safe or something that I
would/could do but neither are low level aerobatics at airshows or Reno air
races.I happen to know some of those who are flying in those videos and they
are a great group. Lets not start bashing our fellow Lancair pilots, whom
have contributed plenty to this list Im sure, just for putting up a video of
some dangerous flying....that most of us enjoy watching......I have worked
in professional aviation for 14 years now and every pilot I know, including
the professionals have done stuff like this and often worse.   Doesn't make
it ok. But as long as there are fast planes pilots to fly them there will be
hot flyin.
