You could always try to pivot the An-225's nose gear on the truck while the rear end of the 'craft keeps flying...not sure if you'd class that as a full landing though Ozzy :)

No Dave - it's that truck that discovered JATO :D

Not verry funny, but as I understand it you didn't know the facts so I dont hold it against you.

HAHAHA ... with this kind of action I might not even have to move from my PC to watch Formula 1 races  ;D

I could just keep flying and watch the race from the sky!


Can't wait for this to see it on my screen instead of a video ...

It's a damn shame. I've been watching these guys for years. That jet powered WAKO was a sight to behold live. I couldn never figure out who was crazier. The father or his son for jumping on the wing while he performed nearly the same routine when solo. The Bulldog and Shockwave were here at the Lumberton Airshow (NC) this past weekend. It just wasn't the same with out "The Masters of Disaster" :-[
