Female World Aerobatics champion...it would be nice is young girls here had someone like this as their role model instead of desperate housewives.
Watch with or without the music if you like...she can out fly any of us in her sleep.:salute:
 
I was lucky to see her at the Wanaka air show in 2006 along with Jurgis Kairys and Robert Fry..she signed a T shirt for me but now somewhat faded

I can't believe how calm and cool she looks doing maneuvers that would probably have my stomach churning. Amazing flying!
 
Always impressive to see a pro at work. Aside from blowing kisses she's strictly business once she's in that cockpit. :)
 
Ditto to seeing her fly at Wanaka, although I recall her waving to the crowd as she went past upside down lol, and I've seen a vid where she waves to the instrument panel mounted camera at the top of a manouver! Absolutely amazing pilot right up there with Peter Besenyei and Jurgis Kairys and a privilage to watch fly!
