I just read the comments attached to the You Tube link. Yikes. We don't know how good we have it here. Let's keep staying under the radar...

(It does crack me up a little every time I hear that "fit and proper person" lingo!)

Freedom Baby! In the past many have died protecting it.
Retract you apology and move to CA John. We admit we are not "fit and proper" over here (as a matter of fact, wer'e "not all right") but we could use more men like you.

He must have been handing out crack to kids in the LZ after the landing? What a bunch of kooks. NZ, time to put a leash on your association...

i have seen many videos of this man and he is a true sky god. greatness is often critisised out of the fear of what we don't understand.

a very missunderstood fellow. great pilot

John zoomed through a speed gliding gate a 10 feet, then went straight INTO A LOOP (yes, starting that low to the ground) at Aspen Colorado several years ago.

Sky god, doesnt even come close
