FSX Simulation of the Iris F-15 doing the Limbo Rock.
Our R/C club does this event at our our summer show. The hardest part is lining up to center and calculating clearance when going under pole. For the jest ther are no poles, just passes to the ground.

Thanks for Looking. Cheers, Mike ;)

Methinks there'd be some goo.   The fire would probably outrun the splatty part at that rate and (lack of) altitude. :D

Fancy piece of flyin' right there driver!  Cool shots! 8-)

I have thought of going under the Eads Bridge over the Mississippi River. Also was thinking of going through the St. Louis Arch with the Spirit of St.Louis.

Got any ideas ?

Cheers, Mike
