Default Best TUCSON SHOOTOUT 2008 VIDEOS

Best thing I ever did http://higherplaneproductions.com/ other than buying a sim

Can't wait to see all the vids in HD and have some good freestyles to try to emulate on the sim this winter.

$40 for the whole year and 1500 vids!

yeah, really good videos at HPP. One question, does anybody know what happened to Bruckmann's pattern plane? (in two video interviews they say something about the wingspar, but I can't understand what happened and why)

Awesome Vic. I am going to connect to our HD TV which will be great. I think it is such a good resource for freestyle ideas.

One wing spar snapped during one of the sequence snaps. Gernot and several others said that the sequences and very "hard" on the planes this year. -Fred

Vic - those freestyles were off the chart. Seeing Gernot repair the plane and fly Sunday and completely rip it up was unreal.

Hats off to 'the Earl' for winning his 4th Tucson.... in a row!

When did you sign up? Check out the XFC vids. My favourite is Andrew Jesky's first flight with his 300. (before it died) It is a great flight. He flew the remainder of the comp with the H9260 but it was not as clean.
