Nice Joe, thanks for the Vid link. Enjoyed watching it, although I would prefer to have that fan in front me running to keep me from sweating :) :) :)

OMG that is crazy!
I wonder if his POH lists a "No engine takeoff speed". :)

A 27MPH stall speed!!! You could keep it in the air with a desk fan!

LOL. Judging from the tiremarks at 2:42 in the video, that was not the only attempt make for this stunt.
Wish I knew where that was? Would love to try it in MSFS.
Enjoyed it, thanks Joe.
