Uh its an airshow have you guys never seen an airshow before?
Maybe he hit a bird idk but nothing in that video is out of place, death defying stunts is literally what airshow are for, and he never got particularly close to anything.
"Omg can you believe that monster truck ran over that car? Then it jumped over a bus? What do they think this is a monster truck rally?"

According to the Spanish Airforce, it's not a stunt. Numerous staff would have known if it was supposed to be in the show.
Pilots train for any maneuver in the airshow numerous times before putting it in the show and that pilot would risk his wings doing something like this, not approved. The Spanish Airforce confirmed it was due to bird strike avoidance, like I said in the post.
So fuck off with your condescending bullshit.

Nah I'm going to condescend even harder.
Nothing in that video is "omg that's so out of the realm of what should of happened!"
If you didn't zoom in on the bird you would never have know that maneuver was "unplanned".
Not knocking the pilot at all, amazing skills, but if you think that video is anything beyond a random Tuesday for any demonstration squadron/airshow then you need to get out more.

Asshole, did I state any opinion on the matter? Why are you so insufferable 24/7 on this forum. I talked to you in EQ just fine, but here, almost every post comes off like you are the prissiest faggot at the ball wanting to make sure everyone knows just how prissy you are.
