Aerial Acrobatics

I think this belongs here. Made an Aerial Acrobatics video to kill some time before .21.

It has several classic maneuvers, as well as some of my own stunts which you will not see at an airshow... you will see why.

Clicky pic to play (it's on Skydrive).

Nicely done. What about all-time classic? The Dreadful Tailspin And your plane is extremely maneuverable. Craft file?

That inverted Immelman is actually known as a Split S.

I skipped doing a flat spin, since i'm sure people have seen plenty of those!

Craft file: Butterfly Stk.craft (if your browser just shows the craft text, then paste that into a file)

Note that for the video I emptied all the rocket fuel tanks to make it light to fly easily.

Yes, you are correct. However I just did both in one scene as one to keep it quick. As far as I know, a Split S is just a type of Immelman Turn, however I'm sure people will disagree.

Thank you very much bsalis. Apparently i'm incapable of building air-worthy VTOL, so i have to rely on others creations
