I think that guy also works at Lompoc and Lodi too.
He must've had a lot more retained energy than it "felt" like by video, otherwise that was insane AND the same music the Jeb Corliss (broke tied the record for lowest wingsuit flight & broke both legs) used. I saw a news article about a jump plane that somehow ran back into it's skydivers and chopped one up. Hope they all make it to be old bold pilots.
I'm developing a list of things that put me on alert-- windmills on the sectional, cropdusters in the area, and crazy jump plane pilots. Crop dusters don't use radios-- they just show up under you all of the sudden on final. Jump pilots use radios- yeah I see you're on final, but I'm going anyway. Not sure which is worse ;)

Man that was a thrill! This pilot must have been feeling his 'oats' that day.
We have a guy just like that here at KBVU. I almost met him in the pattern when he entered turning left base from the vertical.
That is what happens when you get paid by the load!

Wow...I thought it was a crash video...that is pure skill.
