We posted a story about a week ago showing a guy rappelling down from a helicopter to repair a wind turbine. At the end of that post I mentioned that the only people crazier than that might be the folks working on high voltage wires... I rest my case...
These guys are just a little bit nuts... not quite as crazy as the guys that work on live high voltage wires, but a close second maybe. I wonder how cold that water is?
I've been remiss in my weekend video postings lately, but here's a pretty spectacular one to make up for it. The pilot is Kevin Eldridge, and he does a pretty amazing job of steering the Corsair away from the crowd and towards the ground before getting out. Close call to say the least...
Here's a quick, no frills walk around of the Eurofox LSA. Folding wings, tricycle or conventional gear arrangements and a price tag under $70k make it a very appealing LSA. See how it stacks up against the competition at our LSA comparison page.
Aero-TV has a nice video rundown of the Gobosh 800XP light sport aircraft. Since we all can't walk down to the showroom to check one of these out, video is the next best thing.
It's not the weekend yet, but I couldn't wait to post this video. The Discovery Channel produced this one. It's a pretty exciting way of presenting Light Sport Aircraft in general, not to mention the Icon A5 itself.
