He's sponsored by DA so I'm sure its a DA, I'll see if I can dig through my notes and find out which one, I was concentrating on helis though.

Hey! Thanks for the "sneak peak" of the action at the show. Sorry you got stuck in the hotel room editing vidio. IMO you could save yourself time and prevent viewer misery by NOT adding that silly music to the video clips. It's like watching a Clint Eastwood Movie with Opra music playing as the sound track.( YUCK

Thanks again for the pictures. Rene

That music wasn't added - it was playing over the loudspeakers. That's the music the pilots were flying to.

I'm not sure what "silly music" you are referring to, because we don't add anything to them. That is the music that the pilots fly their routines to. It's played at the site while the pilots fly and is a major part of their routines as part of their scores come from the flying being synced to the music.

. Never having been to a big show like this this I did not know they play music over the loudspeakers....Sorry. Well, OK then. I guess I'll go back and watch them again with the sound turned up and see if they really do dance to the music!!

The ability to choreograph the flight routine to the music you choose is key to competing at XFC

I love when pilots choreograph their flights to music, its like dancing; however i hate when people add music, i know im not the only one. I love to hear the airplane in flight.
