I’ve seen the jelly belly at a air show before and it is so hilarious

[HundredDaysMusic]

One of these days, its going to actually be what I think it is.

Wait he must been doing the TP stunt before 2020 TP shortage 😂

Saw this guy at the Moose Jaw air show in Saskatchewan Canada and it was pretty funny. Something about ground asking why he needed all of his flight documents and it being because he needed to wipe lol.

[thelonewrangler]

I see this guy's act at least twice a year for many yrs and it never gets old hearing the crowd freakout when parts start falling off the plane, thankyou Ken

That clip from 1941, was my former employer, Howard Dutton of Dutton Flying Circus and Dutton’s Flight School, in Haverhill Ma.
He was killed in the spring of 1977, in a Bellanca Decathlon.

Air comedy show. I never expected that to exist ever, but now I really wanna go to one

[bonobo]

I saw this guy when I was a kid. It's amazing how he makes flying look easy. He goes into controlled spins as if he were about to crash and then just pulls out of it like it's nothing.

[jnmwtkns]

Ive seen his act in person and it’s incredible!
The hours of practice and the precision it takes to make it look authentic is unbelievable!

[NormanconEVE]

Met Ken Peach a few times. Hes a pretty chill guy haha. His performance never gets old

[rjchavers]

The Jelly Belly seems like an appropriate name for this plane. 😉

“Ah yes, time to please the crowd.” *casually drops aileron and refuses to elaborate further*

[MinistryOfMagic_DoM]

I actually know that guy! Flew with him for years. He's insane. Yes, he really was flying with a missing part.

[daveblevins]

I knew Ken Pietsch & his brother while working in Minot, ND. Great guys👍🇺🇸🇺🇸💥

[that_hatchbak_civic]

I got fooled by this stunt at Cleveland last year XD

[goldy_on_pc]

Mom can we have aircraft carrier
Mom: we have aircraft carrier at home
* aircraft carrier at home*

[jonathanstobbe]

Love the Jelly belly! Seen it three times at Airshow! never gets old!

[UltraMagaFan]

I got to see Kent Pietsch at MCAS Beaufort back in 2019. His act is very entertaining. Hopefully he’ll be there again when they have their next air show In 2023.

you can do a surprising amount to a plane before it becomes un flyable, only having one Aileron will reduce the roll rate the aircraft can achieve and will also introduce yaw but the plane will still be perfectly controllable

[manoflego]

Seeing a plane that looks like hat with a name like that doing tricks like that just makes me smile in a way that only wholesome things can.
