Speedster had clipped wings and setup for faster cruise/acro

Jim Simcox probably that they can’t fly a a kick ass airplane.

AMEN, JIM!! The Kitfox is a HOMEBUILT, not an aerobatic machine...takes great skill to do such a performance! Rain on the Thumb-Downers!

Could be the way it was filmed, too close (zoom), and unable to appreciate the maneuvers.

Giovanni Mendes Drumond acrobatics is what circus performers do. When aeroplanes do stunts like this it is called AEROBATICS. Please and thank you.

@@r08800 lol dude, you rock

It is indeed a Rotax

Look at my writing

Mike CorLeoné The difference is, you know it's coming, they don't. It's not the best way to win people over. Flying is supposed to be fun, not terrifying.

Richard Darlington learn to understand sarcasm.....

Mike CorLeoné Yes, of course! How silly of me. By not knowing you personally and misreading your tone of voice, I should have known better. One thing (among many others) I've learned over the years, is that some people are complete assholes.

Richard Darlington eat a pair...

Richard Darlington there’s assholes all over the world guy.. build a bridge n get over it.. you need your safe space?

I believe this one has a 912IS.

Stock Kitfox S7 wing. Fabric covered.

@@ThePicturesAreAlive Wow what a beautiful job..

You can click on the link in the description to find out more.

Yes rotax 100 hp

probably the 915is 141hp, fuel injected.

I hope it more the 912's 100 hp

let's see your display

Okay. Next time you're in Vegas, give me a holler.

Agree!! We are all great armchair aerobatic pilots. The pressure of flying a routine at all much less in front of a big crowd says much about the pilot. Also safely performing said routine may have it contain small short cuts and adjustments during the performance to stay inside his show box as well as not encroaching the crowd line. All round great performance from the camera angle I was watching. I do believe this was at an airshow and not an aerobatic competition.

Chybear Don't get me wrong. I thoroughly enjoyed Kyle's routine. But, after all, this is a comment section. So, I left a comment by making some personal observations, that's all. No, this is not a competition, but airshow work is all about presentation. And drawing a short (one second) line between segments just looks better to me. That's all. I could never afford to get a pilot's license. Most pilots don't even own an airplane. So, they rent somebody else's. That's so sad to me. So, some 40 years ago, I did the next best thing. I became an aeromodeller. That's my clipped-wing Taylorcraft in my icon. Happy landings! P.S. This was indeed an airshow... at Oshkosh 2018. It's in the title.

Not rated for inverted. You can see when he rolls out its not just aileron. Little bit of back pressure just to ensure the engine doesn't get real ticky real fast. It might not be polished but man how good does it look when he turns so quickly. Could do a minimum radius turn round a hot air balloon. Ha ha ha

I want to hear the aircraft, not the big-mouthed asshole with a microphone.

UFO Channel TV My issue is that I have no respect for airshow commentators and organizers. Airshows aren't what they used to be. Now you've got: Annoying announcer. Annoying loud ass music, with speakers often right in your face. Lame Top Gun music. Much, much smaller static display, especially with military planes. Fewer military flight performances. Many performances are the same ones year after year. I'm tired of watching bi-planes and Extras/clones year after year. Tents and other things purposely placed on the flightline to get people to pay to sit in the less-obstructive area, which is still somewhat obstructed in my experience, and I've had said speakers in my face in this area (which are big and are also on big stands that both block your view). Everyone holding up their phones to record. No food or drinks allowed in. So wanting you to buy nasty overpriced food. High entrance fee and Parking fee. Much bigger crowds, and cars now park on the roads (to avoid some of the above), creating a mess to get in/out. Many business tents pushing their wares.

we all know what a screaming engine sounds like!!! How boring would it be with no description of what's going on. Its an air show not a bingo hall

Believe it or not, everyone at the airshow is not a pilot and is not exactly sure what is going on or what maneuvers the pilot is making. Thank you Mr. Commentator for helping me to enjoy the airshow a little more.

I’m a little late, but I’ve been to an airshow without music or commentary and it was kinda eerie. And some parts you couldn’t tell if it was apart of the show or a mistake, and I know aviation well. So I say I prefer the announcers and music, but that’s just my opinion
