Several years ago I was at an air show in England. There was a MiG-29 pilot that would point his aircraft straight up. Stall it like a prop plane, flip it around in the same manner, relight his engines, level off and continue the show.

I always thought Russian pilots has some rivets loose.



At the same show there was a Spanish F/A-18 pilot that did the manuver called "walking the dog". He would point the nose of the aircraft about 80 degrees up and move down the runway at about taxi speed. To get out of it he would get the afterburners going and just move straight up into the sky.

F-15 pilot gets involved in a midair - looses a wing and LANDS the bird.

Link...



Unreal.

i always liked the su-30 i didn't see my favorite maneuver where he does a low speed climb and with the canards and vectored thrust kicks it into a double back flip with in just over the length of the plane pulling out in a completely new direction, that thing does stuff that a overpowered stearman wishes it could do at low speed, in a dogfight you'd just be screwed flying anything else
