I think that no matter what part of the aero modeling sport you fly, one can appreciate the level of skill required in this flight.

I flew CL and a teenager and if you never have you really can’t appreciate the skill this gentleman just demonstrated. The square maneuvers were amazing. Absolutely an outstanding performance!

[kentuckyblugrass]

I can appreciate the cameraman focusing on both the plane and the pilot. Being able to see how he's manipulating the line is awesome.

Brings back memories of my youth! Need to get back into control line—- THAT WAS model flying! Direct control. Love the video!

[Chrisrr]

I'm not much into control line flying, but that was completely amazing! This guy is a true professional

[cwrobinson]

I am 68 years old now but, whin I was in the army in 1969 I flew what was called "U" control. I had no idea people were still doing this kind of flying. Believe it or not, I was as good as this guy. My best plane was a F4U1 Corsair.

Dude looks like a Jedi Master in a practice session! 😅

🥃cheers🍻

I used to have one of those growing up and it was by far one of the best hobby/toys ever. Seeing these videos makes me want another one.

[truckerray]

Now that right there was freakin awesone for sure! Ive seen alot of controlled line aicraft flying & i even had one as a teenager, but this is the very 1st time i have seen one where aerial acrobatics with the aircraft was displayed. This video "blew my freakin mind". . . . . .Just awesome awesome awesome!!!

[Ackermanmedia]

I used to do this type of flying when I was 5 years old in 1979....I thought it had gone the way of wagons and horse drawn buggies...hahaha didn't know there were still badass line control pilots. Great precision my friend.

Супер! когда-то мы летали на дизелях и калилках . Сейчас электро, но ДВС тоже доставляет удовольствие! Красоту работы ДВС никто не отменял! А парень молодец! Квадратные фигуры это мастерство, а выход низко над землей это суперМастерство!

[air-headedaviator]

I was not ready for the level of awesome that was attainable in control line flight as displayed by this video.

[CanadairCL]

This takes me back, I used to love flying control line combat. I still have all my engines, they're all antiques now!

[mjproebstle]

WOW! Awesome flight!! For me, this beats RC 3D any day!
