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


The power of suggestion. :D

Was toolin' around my 'hood in one of my faves, a JetStar II, and thought I'd give it a shot, 8-)

Great screenshots guys.

Here is a challenge:
Go through the lower opening or between the top towers.
The building is the Petronas Towers 1 & 2 in Kuala Lumpar, Malaysia.
WMSA airport after takeoff the towers are 3'Oclock.
I started out slow and easy with hang glider.
Cheers, Mike ;)

Haha, we get these every so often.... the whole, what can you fly under thread. then it becomes, whats the biggest thing you can fly inverted under, and so on and so on. I once flew the AN-225 with the Buran attached... inverted under the golden gate bridge! haha. I believe Ozzy flew the Concorde inverted under it as well and completed an outside loop in the process!

Isnt it fun to do completely unrealistic things every once in a while?

Don't know what the deal is with the textures on the upright supports on the skyway?

He certainly does .......... and I've matched him on a few.

The petronas tower is only valid if done at over Mach1 ...... as I did some years ago in the EE Lightning....... INVERTED.

As proof there is no cheating ...... SMOKE ON and at least a shot before, through and after the stunt.  ;D ;D

Love the shot.

Course my first reaction, being a former crew chief was 'PUT THE GEAR DOWN YOU IDIOT!'   LOL ;D
