Well, those of us who were not there will have to take your word for what happened, since the cameraman missed the big save. Enjoyed your flying, though.

i watched it from standing right next to him.

he was almost inverted in a rolling harrier and it just shut off, then he rolled the rest of the way to get it upright, and gained as much airspeed as possible to make it more of a level landing then going straight in.

Quick thinking under pressure
