Default Re: Full Scale Huckin a Russian Fighter

What amazes me when watching this airplane, is that when it's in a situation where none of its surfaces are developing lift and the tail isn't pointed to the ground, like in the flat spin at the beginning of the clip. it's not dropping out of the sky.

These airplanes have a very high wing loading, but it still performs maneuvers as if in slow motion, as if it's very light; that's what blows my mind.
