Default Alan Szabo vid! One of the best I've seen!!

If only regular people knew how hard stuff like this was...

Download the "Alan Szabo at the lake" vid and enjoy! The guy must have to replace blade dampers after every flight! I'd have to replace my underwear, too

I hear that Youngblood is actually better than him, but I never see Youngblood doing things like this. I wonder how much politics play into his winnings? Alan is incredible...simply amazing.

theres an even newer one of him out there flying during xmas eve that will blow you away even further. He does this move I can describe as a Tic Toc Piro flip that is just sick.

If you look really careful, you can see the wires attached to the helicopter and what looks to be a shadow from a crane. All I can say is... that is one talented crane operator!

Youngblood is the Quique of Helis as far as I'm concerned, but like Quique, the years are catching up with him...Szabo is the new "Young"blood

I never liked watching helis fly (no offense to anyone) but this video turned me on. I think I want to get into helis now. Awesome control and flying skills. Simply the best (Tina Turner))

I'm total with you Texx, the first time I watched it it was a blur. There was no way I could even imagine what he was doing to control that thing.

Second and third time I got up to speed to see it and get an idea where and what he was doing but hooly dooley man. I had idea of where he must have been with control inputs.

Just freakin awesome. And that is a real understatement.
