Cyclists: What plane is this?

Recommended Posts

Without looking at this video, can you tell me what plane shows up at 1:33 mark?

Just curious.

edit: (I mean, you have seen it already, because it is making the rounds, as it should because it is awesome).
It's flare not flair, brakes not breaks, bridle not bridal, "could NOT care less" not "could care less".

Not completely sure, but it looks suspiciously like a Lockheed Loadstar AKA Loadstall.

I have a fair number of jumps out of one.



Isn't the Loadstar a low wing aircraft? (That's me being courteous and not sayng WRONG! YOU'RE WRONG! LIAR!) ;)

I said I wasn't sure! :$ It can't be a lie, if I'm not sure, right? :P Besides, it was decades ago, for Pete's sake! :D

LET 410 s have pointy noses, who's the guy with the fiery underpants now? :ph34r:

Don't know what plane that is, but that rider is phenomenal! We played that video on the big TV at our bike shop just a few days ago- sick! You can see those wheels flexing so much... much respect to that guy- serious talent.

Actually, I do know what kind of plane that is: parked.

That looks like a winner to me, or as the other poster said it may be a Prince, as they are basically the same plane with the Pembroke having a longer wing.

WooHoo, this guy is really a true artist! No idea what the plane is, sorry. But thanks for the link, hell of a rider this guy!

P.S.: After so much effort he would have deserved a bike-wash much more like those infamous car-wash scenes, huh? :P:):$ Anyway, the girls looked dishy B|

If that's a true representation of where/how he screws up, then that just shows how impressive he is. B| I've ridden a lot in my life, and that just flat-out amazes me! :)

There werent many Locheeds that didnt have Twin tails . They always had an extension out pass the vertical stabalizer. The easiest way ti tell a Non-Beech . In search of TV show always
had a Twin Beech in the fly-by scene instead of a 10-E. The Connie had a triple tail so hangers at the Army Air Corps wouldnt be higher than the Tank Commanders buildings. Military Intelligence or lack of made great decisions.
