Do not read the CNN comments if you want to keep your blood pressure in check. We humans are a disgusting bunch.

Wilco. Fwiw, outside of sports and politics, the comment sections of any website are garbage. Especially youtube.

First, I'm not an aerobatic pilot and probably wouldn't fit into too many. So I don't know how to perform those tumbling maneuvers he did in this video but I thoroughly enjoy watching those moves.

Second, if you want to see what a 1:1 thrust to weight ratio can do just wait to the end of the video.

So sad and disturbing to see the video. Spoke with my Father and he is pretty upset about it, both got hired around the same time... Tailwinds Captain Jensen
