Interesting, thanks for posting. Judging by the control deflections
it looked like some of the pilots were working quite hard to maintain
position.

I think the last few are getting hammered by the propwash. If I´m not
mistaken, that plane uses the same 1000 HP radial as the Antonov An 2
and Dromader spray plane. Must get pretty rough back there.
Great video! Looks like they had a lot of fun.

I watched again and noticed that the plane has a turboprop, not a
radial..Still must move a lot of air, though... JC
