My favourite has got to be the commercial jet.

But as Trig pointed out over at Marlins, my overall favourite with the news reporter and the spit is missing...

Great Vid Screwy, music is bloody awful.

Music's dire to be honest

I'm rapidly coming to the opinion that French airforce pilots are <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SloCREJo ... re=related" target="_blank">mad</a>

Oh and here's one <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=26H-WzIe ... ature=fvwp" target="_blank">for</a> bob

I dunno - I think the music in Screwy's vid is quite in keeping with the the obvious mental state of the pilots, and therefore quite good

Like the Airbus one too - although the first pass with the wheels down - did you spot the brown trousers moment??

I know the pilot who walked/staggered away from this. Had several evenings on the beer with him when I was in Sweden.

These beers... were they after or. erm, before this little incident...

Probably after, would of needed them...
Wasnt the only crash this guy caused iirc, he was one of the test pilots so it was upto him to crash them essentially..

Some obvious mad pilots with some brilliant skills (or big balls, i'm no so sure which).

Slatz is a Test Pilot?

That's a good reason for his cool, calm, and collected gaming persona in BC2... and why he likes to parachute off anything taller than a chair....

Can imagine he's got some action packed stories to tell us.

They weren't a Swedish couple. He was South African, she was Swedish.

Oh, hang on a minute, it was a couple of Swedish boobs.

Your, right, he was in two Gripen crashes. Second one was during an air show over the centre of Stockholm. Fortunately aircraft ended up in the drink.

He doesn't fly anymore, just supports marketing campaigns.

Over a beer sometime I can explain how the first one wasn't his fault. Jury is still out on responsibility for the second.
