Video: Amazing aerial acrobatics from Reno’s Air Races

In the first video, shot and produced by RGJ’s Pete Krajewski, Teresa Stokes straps herself to the top of a bi-plane. She moves around on the plane, from the wing to the top, at a breath-taking risk to herself. See for yourself.

This video set to "In Memory" is strangely graceful and thrilling. This pilot climbed high into the sky...and then killed the engine. The physics of air travel are largely a mystery to me and the amount of control this pilot has over his plane even thought the engine is off is astounding, or perhaps it's just a lovely illusion. Either way, I think it's worth watching.
