2 different planes, 2 different pilots.

The YAK was flown by Carlos Hernandez. AJ flew the 330.

The yak was Carlo's, but im pretty sure its Andrews old yak that he had for sale in the swap shop a while back.

To be sure XFC and Gernot fans can find it, here's a link to Gernot's freestyle routine from XFC shot in HD and posted in "The Big Screen" forum:

Fred,
I couldn't agree with you more on your comments in the linked thread above. Mr. Bruckman is an unbelievable talent at any age, let alone 15yrs. old. Now that you've restored the music on your wonderful video of Gernot, it's even more awe inspiring, great job.
A few months ago, Max, Leseberg, and I, were having dinner together and we started talking about the up and coming new talent, and the dedication it takes to become the world's best. In a nut shell, Beavis was blown away by the talent of Gernot Bruckman, so much so, that he kept referring to Gernot as "Little Hano", quite a compliment.
