[@terrancedactielle5460]

It's only a crash if someone loses hand luggage....

[@wilfdarr]

That was luck straight up. Nothing the pilot did or could have done was responsible for that outcome.

[@Swedester]

Wilfred Darr it wasn’t luck if it all depended on him reacting quickly enough to level out and pull up

[@wilfdarr]

@@Swedester It skipped off the water: prior to that it was stalled in the turn. He had no control of the aircraft from the time the wing drops until the aircraft starts climbing again, no matter his reaction time. It was shear luck. It doesn't diminish him any as a pilot, but this incident was more likely to end in tragedy than the result that we witnessed.

[@cgreeneblue]

really? because he leveled his wings in a blink of an eye, powered out of it, gained altitude in case he needed time to compensate for problems as a result of the contact...I'd say he did A LOT of the right things in 3 seconds.

[@grega1207]

I got the chance to fly this style of aircraft during some aerobatic training and let me just say these planes are a completely incredible experience. The lightness and quickness of the controls demand a light touch yet quick thinking and nerves of steel. Good to see Matt pull himself out of that near "mess", he didn't panic, just "flew the plane" like your instructor always tells you. Amazing to watch!

[@asadosan6934]

Yeah these puppies could do tighter turns than any fighter jet in the world

[@jadefalcon001]

Something like this would be up there with an early 90s dodge viper - amazing machine, and one I would not want to try to operate. The Viper pretty much *wants* to kill the driver. An aircraft like this is so incredibly high performance that it must be equally unforgiving. That's intimidating as hell.

[@grega1207]

@@jadefalcon001 When I was flying that aircraft over in England with one of the Red Arrow pilots (their equivalent of our USAF Thunderbirds), I remembered vividly that I was very humbled to be in the company of not only that pilot for training but also humbled for the opportunity to fly that airplane. While it is not "trying to kill you" as you mention, aerobatics is terribly unforgiving of pilot mistakes! Matt was not only highly skilled that day but that mistress was also forgiving and they both lived to dance another day!

He cranked passed 90. The result is an unavoidable loss of altitude. Amazing that he was able to correct that quickly.

[@getchasome6230]

I guarantee he pooped a little

[@frederalbacon]

If you watch it slowly, he DIDN'T correct that quickly. His left wing hit the water when he was still at 45 degrees. The force of that wing hitting is what sent him back to 0, and allowed him to not go nose over by pitching up and letting the back hit the water with the wheels. Until the moment that wing hit the water, he was probably going directly into the water instead of skimming.
