Close call for a YAK-9UM

This is just sick how low he got, one lucky sob. He has only 2 things to remember speed and altitude, and forgetting altitude is a BIG mistake.

Re: Close call for a YAK-9UM

My buddies and I call it the "pucker factor" when we have a close call on our motorcycles. I think that would definitely qualify. Whoa!

Re: Close call for a YAK-9UM

After that I would have got out of the airplane, walked straight to my couch, drank beer, and looked at the wall for a while.
 

I can take umbrage, I can take the cake, I can take the A-Train, I can take two and call me in the morning, but I cannot take this sitting down. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to take five.

Re: Close call for a YAK-9UM

The thing I get pissed off by is that after that the moron does a roll, he would have been given land now from air marshals at the show.
