This causes the craft to go into a roll. Also, I don't think a Stearman can do that either, and it certainly would not create a square shock wave. I doubt it is real either.PeaceVethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14497293401563594218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-115606264486337120.post-40124820799800371252010-04-12T06:43:57.972-07:002010-04-12T06:43:57.972-07:00The picture with the helicopter is fake.

Look at the background of the sky, it's exactly the same as the background with the plane. 1 of them is fake.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13807442170433187288noreply@blogger.com
