Finally - some real aerobatic flying in a big turbine jet!!! Way to go Mike Lesher - cool under pressure (song playing in background) with the flameout (how does that happen BTW?).
Rommel - I really enjoy your super high quality videos - you are ‘the man’ with great video skills and production. Keep up the great work!!

Cameron - Thanks for the kind words on my videography. (cool under pressure) - Our flying field has XM music available from speakers in the pavilion and hedges. (flameout) - Occur when there is a disruption in the fuel flow to turbine. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flameout. Again thanks for viewing my videos
