The plane with the 116 and in cowl canisters in it was cracked in half in the trailer.
(looked like road damage.)

I think this was a 100.

The video looks pretty good, especially when the flag is not in the way. I really like his take-off, landing, and KE loops.

Does anyone know what engine Mike was using ? It looked like it had tons of power especially when he pulles out of the hover.
