- In this video, created for the Smithsonian's TechQuest: Flying Circus program, Aerobatic Champion Sean D. Tucker demonstrates how to perform tricks like a spin, an inside loop, and outside loop in his aircraft.
I love this guys enthusiasm and passion. He's like a kid! This is the guy that I would want to be my flight instructor!
This is exactly the personality I would expect that an aerobatic pilot would have. Just more crazy than average person.
No comments on this video after nearly two years? OK, I'll go first...this is freaking awesome!
Pamela S.
Oh, wow! I just found this. That's the guy!
If you want to make the outside loop really interesting, start it from the top and push over.
At first it's, "Gee, I hope I started this high enough." Then it's, Gee, I hope I have enough speed/power/momentum to finish!"
I'm told that's how Doolittle did it.
Sean D Tucker. Comes from the town I live in. We are proud to have such a talented flyer living amongst us. But most of the time he's out performing for the world.
2 years later and it’s still freaking awesome
Sean D Tucker is such a high energy guy, makes everything more fun.
This is what life should look like. What a legend
I love his enthusiasm!
LOL
“I’ll use my (mumbles) to roll inverted”
He very clearly said ailerons
What a great video!
The transcript says he's mumbling at 2:04, but he's actually saying "aileron", a term used in aviation. Just wanted to point that out!
Wikipedia:
_"An aileron is a hinged flight control surface usually forming part of the trailing edge of each wing of a fixed-wing aircraft._
_Ailerons are used in pairs to control the aircraft in roll, which normally results in a change in flight path due to the tilting of the lift vector."_
Look up the word "awesome" and the result will be this man. What a pro.
i came from r/fiftyfifty
thank god it was this
yes
what a shame it was this
Same
Awesome video! This aerobatic pilot reminds me of another aerobatic pilot I admire named Kirby Chambliss!
This was just absolutely incredible to watch- this guy's awesome
"Remember flying is easy, and flying is fun" I like the quote but I have a feeling they wont be using it at any FAA training programs.
I want to learn aerobatics but I don't have a cool pair of sunglasses. Is it still possible?
Nope
I find it challenging to land a c172 with 10kts of crosswind and this guy pulls an outside loop while adjusting his sunglasses!
The rudder and elevators have so much command on that plane!
I get to do this as a passenger in a couple weeks-so excited!
How was it ??
Reddit be like: "There are no accidents"
What kind of plane is it?
Could you demonstrate a tumble dive?
Wow! Love it!
This is the Scotty Kilmer of flying
I like aerobatic very much.
Ok. He makes it look and sound so easy.
And to answer his question, "does that look like fun?" Yeah, but it's hard as hell. And a guy like him who's been doing it forever (not quite as legendary as Bob Hoover though), is going to make it sound like the easiest thing in the world.
Génial, tout simplement génial ! J'embarque pas avec vous, mais je vous regarde ! :-)
I saw a comment saying it's freaking awesome. ..ARE YOU ALL IN IT.The reason I looked this up is because there a airplane spinning outside my house right now and in the sky he keeps doing loops for the past 7 hrs no joke and he did yesterday too
amazing!
BEST VIDEO EVER!!!
That must be a lot of fun and require a lot of practice. I want to learn this!! Btw, I just came across a similar video on James Asquith's channel.
Sean,
How many negative Gs before you red out?
Hell yahh that’s fun
I FIRST MET Sean D TUCKER,@ the SUSSEX AIRSHOW IN NJ, he autographed, my copy of my programme , ,those dats he flew a modified PITTS,which wend down,in ALABAMA,,something snapped,it could climb,but NOT COME DOWN,so for the FIRST TIME HE HAD TO BAIL OUT ,he saw what broke,and NEEDED,to find the person whom packed his chute,then flew EXTRA 300 SUSSEX AIRSHOWS,are all gone,now, I attended many there,even a B17 was there once, Over the years several people whom performed there lost their lives,,but never there,,,,,,,, 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
That looks like fun, and it looks like I'd pee my pants in the outside loop.
wow that was LEGIT!!! I wanna do it!!!
Just thinking of a 747 pilot who maybe was a fighter pilot at some time..... Wanting to get fired in style........" The captain just said keep our seatbelts on a little bit longer I wonder why".?... Weather looks beautiful.......
How do you keep from getting dizzy?
Maybe some ppl just have a higher tolerance for that. I imagine it’s also easier when you’re the one in control, the psychology of being more relaxed when you know what’s happening next
1,385 LOOPINGS, whitout stop, and mark a WORLD RECORD, MATEO BOIX, from Argentina.....greetings.
I hope he can do a Hammerhead manuever.
who hre from 5050
We'll be landing shortly folks.... Chang in plan.. You can get a fresh change of clothes and maybe visit the the restroom.....
I think that all aerobatic pilots like the (positive and negative) G-forces.
I get dizzy thinking about it.
Flying is great fun, but aerobatics puts the F into FUN!!!
In WW2, nazi pilots would not been able to shoot him down as it was too entertaining to watch him do these spins and rolls in the air that they would be cheering rather than gunning him down.
Awwwww I WANTED TO SEE THE PLANE CRASH ON THAT FIFTY FIFTY
Remember: flying's easy
and flyings fun!
He looks kinda like Howie Mandel with hair
I came here from reddit 50/50
Bruh people are weird. They ask for a plane accident cuz of reddit 50/50
Until you actually do it you can’t possibly understand how cool this is. Go get professional instruction and paint the sky.
5050
lmfao -3 G's is most definitely not fun... this guy is psychotic and it's hilarious
GZA036 I got to do some aerobatics, and I love negative G! It’s so much fun! I don’t mind it at all.
I know I am🤙🏻
My first experience in an Aerobatic plane was in Dubai @actionflight
I love his enthusiasm!
