I've seen him several times in the last few years. Awesome performer.
He is the ultimate Honey Badger pilot: 'He's badass. He pushes the air where he wants it. He doesn't give a ____!'

He put in a great show at Oshkosh a couple years ago. First thing he did was pull the nose way up immediately after take-off and hang on the prop about 30 feet AGL. You could clearly see the elevator and rudder furiously moving back and forth as he hung there. Then he recovered and put on a tremendous show. One of my favorites of Oshkosh.

I think he called that the Cobra maneuver or something like that. One of the best things I have seen at any airshow IMHO.

Fun stuff. Sucks that Red Bull stopped sponsoring the races.
