I'm receiving conflicting reports on where/when/who this aerobatic performance took place. Does anyone know for sure? Thanks, -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

oups.com... http://www.alexisparkinn.com/photoga...er_Bridge.mpeg I'm receiving conflicting reports on where/when/who this aerobatic performance took place. Does anyone know for sure? I can't say for sure, but it looks a heck of a lot like the first Red Bull "air race", which if I recall was held somewhere in Europe (yeah, I know...doesn't narrow it down much). The "when" would have been a couple of years ago, if I recall correctly. A Google search on Red Bull would probably turn up the exact date (possibly on the Red Bull web site, even). Pete |

Somehow I suspect that the Lithuanian "FAA" had not been contacted for
permission before the flight... Maybe the two inspectors who grounded Hoover could be sent over there to declare that this pilot's skill levels are too poor to allow flight... denny |

Thanks, all, for the info. I've added it to the site.
(Which, incidentally, I've refurbished a bit. This little page on our hotel's site has *really* taken off, with new videos coming in almost every day. I finally got so danged many that I had to categorize them. I've also added more links to NTSB reports, etc. See all of the videos -- and sound files -- at http://alexisparkinn.com/aviation_videos.htm ) -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" "Denny" wrote in message oups.com...

Judging from the large group of spectators lining the river, I suspect that the stunt was not only approved but was widely publicized in advance. George Patterson Coffee is only a way of stealing time that should by rights belong to your slightly older self. |

news:0nTuf.6644$If.5588@trnddc05... Judging from the large group of spectators lining the river, I suspect that the stunt was not only approved but was widely publicized in advance. Nah...the pilot chose the annual Festival of Pooh Sticks (not limited to Lithuania, but quite popular there). All those people were lined up on the river and bridge to toss their sticks in, and were quite surprised by the impromptu airshow. Eeyore was overheard saying, "oh, he'll probably crash the airplane; at least we will be able to get back to our game". |
