Stopped Engine Aerobatics

June 23, 2008

This amazing aerobatic display was preformed by a World War II veteran and aeronautical wizard Bob Hoover.

Here’s the strange thing. The bureaucracy in US aviation grounded him because of his age… apparently indifferent to his ability or health. So Bob came to Australia, where after being medically examined and flight tested, he was OKed not only to fly, but do Air shows, and after watching this bit of footage I’m sure you will agree with me, US’s loss was our gain.
