Answer...I just dont know....but if it had been me piloting then it would have been the last time...for sure.

These were my thoughts as well. I know the extra 300's have huge controll surfaces as well as a high thrust/weight ratios.
I'm at work now but tommorow I'll see if I can find the clip on you tube of the RC plane that did almost the exact same thing with the landing slightly different. I know they have a higher thrust/weight ratio but still the same basic principals of flight. juggle

Found it. Maybe the link will work. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SsNIhBlyepc

I had looked on www.Snopes.com and found absolutely nothing about it. I didn't know about this website. Thanks,

check again my friend, if flexpress is the one that you are saying that is well respected on this forum and that i insulted him?!?!, you might be mistaken, hes a good friend of mine.

and as for the guy landing the remote airplane, now that looks like some skill, i thought for sure that one was going to crash hard

It is a hoax, albeit, a fairly well done hoax. It is part of an ad campaign for a German clothing line called KillaThrilla. There is a lot on the internet about the fictional pilot, James Andersson. He does not exist in reality, however he has a website. Fun video though.

Yeah, I was attempting to do some research on it yesterday and ran across some items saying the same thing. Amazing what some companys will float out into cyberspace to promote their product. I'd like to see the interview with the "alledged pilot".
Thanks

I don't know much about planes but quite a bit about video. Distorting video is one of the oldest tricks in the book to turn science fiction into science fact. Nice work though and cool video.

I thought it was real until the plane landed. You could easily tell it was computer animated at the landing.

I looked it over with my Dad, whos been a pilot for over 30 yrs, said the rudder and ailerons were all in the correct place for the movements of the plane. The wing detached att the bolt.

Most aerobatic planes are Extra's

Engine Engine Lycoming 300 hp 6 Cylinder AEIO - 540 L1B5
Propeller Composite Constant Speed Propeller - MTV 9-B-C/C 200-15 three-Blade
Seats 2
Maximum Gross Weight 2,095 lbs
Standard Empty Weight 1,470 lbs
Never Exceed Speed 220 kts
Maneuvering Speed 158 kts
Maximum Rate of Climb 3,200 fpm
Stall Speed 55 kts
Range 414 nm
FAA Certified Load Factor +/- 10 Gs
Length 22 ft 10 in
Height 8 ft 7 in
Wing Span 26 ft 3 in


With Improved ailerons boost the 300L's roll rate to 400 degrees per second. All 300Ls are fully certified under FAA and European Joint Aviation Authorities regulations.

He's got enough control to change pitch( rudder ) Left right via aileron and throttle control. Straightening the rudder near landing in the video, would level out the plane


However, the plane sounds like, appears as, and performs like an Rc model. The fact no one screams when he looses a wing, no smoke system, and you would have your hydraulic lines out with no wing.
It's real, with a model RC. Ive see guys hover vertically in 10 foot wingspan Piper Cubs
