Good choices! Not many know who Xavier is. Also not many appreciate the technical skill of these guys...and just think the endless tumblesnapfest style of airshow flying that you see so often is badass.

Man it's getting harder and harder to tell the manuvers of full scale and RC these days. The knife edge spins and tumbles are awesome. That 4ce video has some incredible flying. Wonder who the music is done by? Sounds like Mannheim Steamroller orchestra or something like that...in heavy mode.

Impressive 3D. Amazing that the engine could take that pretty much non-stop. No cool-down time at all. Seeing a Su doing climbing rolling harriers, and what almost looked like a full rolling harrier loop, is very cool. And to top it off that was almost 6 years ago. I was fully expecting him to do a harrier accross the runway on the deck. He got close enough.

Gary is an EPIC pilot and a nice guy and Fred's great too I've flown with him a good several times in the yellow s2c. It's been a while since I've seen a Gary Ward performance but he's always been a favorite I love his turnarounds and torque rolls!
That flatspin was phenomenal
