One for the aircraft enthusiasts.
I've been to hundreds of airshows over the years but one display at Fairford in 2006 by the MIG 29 OVT stands out from rest for me.I have never seen maneuveres like it before or since What skill from the pilot

Always worth watching the Russians, especially their test pilots........ but we'll say nothing about 1993.

SU 27 at Farnborough 1998 did better than that with full vertical stalls and backslide recovery, nevertheless impressive.
