The Redbull camera ship. Insane pilots flying this. They were zippin' back and forth all over the course throughout the weekend.

The Redbull bad-ass inverted flying chopper. This thing does loops, rolls, and stuff we've never seen with helicopters before! The special modification, from what we learned, is a hardened head and rotor. This allows for all the high stress stuff. Very cool!

Alejandro Maclean gave us a tour of what it's like inside the cockpit. These guys actually wear the planes. They have an under water breathing apparatus, and the dash panel is surprisingly bare. Note the ground video communication equipment in the turtledeck.

Peter Besenyei was interviewed, and found my fast talkin' California mouth a little hard to understand.  Peter was a VERY cool dude, and is the pilot of the second Redbull edge.

Jason interviewing Nicolas Ivanoff from France, he was the pilot of the Extra 300 SR, a unique and new plane to the circuit. He called himself the Guinnea Pig for Extra. This was the Orange Extra, we saw quite a bit of wing flex during his exciting runs through the course.

NIGEL LAMB!! This guy was a great dude to interview. Nigel flew the MX2, and was 3rd overall in the competition! One of the best interviews we got, Nigel gets it. He also says he tried to fly RC models before, but always crashed 'em.
