Not legal, but that never been issue in SA.. Seems like WX was good, no wind and plenty clearance. Assuming he inspected the area on other side (there were multiple passes so I assume he was pretty comfi) it would not be that "risky a move providing there was sufficient clearance for king post and he knew EXACTLY where it was.... Looks Cool if it works out. Branded an Idiot if not? My question would be why? (Same question I ask the PTAR boys who go under tlelphone wires at 200kts)

Some of the blik aero's boys did it as Red Bull stunt some years back inverted 3 m above ther water at 200kts... Different strokes for different folks.

PS
While I was training with the guys at Circus/Panorama in 2002 (I think?) there was a guy going under the road bridges on the R59 into on coming traffic. Can you imagine coming home from Vtown after long day at Iscor, keeping a vigil eye for the long arm of the law waiting unda dat bridge with the then hi tech GATSOMETER and coming face to face with a trike....

Sorry but I say you are just looking for kak.

A Once famouse Pik Botha used to say,

"And to the National Party supporters, may you have a safe trip home,.............and to the rest, who the hell am I to tell you what to do?"

Yeah, it's IDIOTS like these that eventually kill themselves and give us a bad name. Very irresponsible. He should have his license revoked for a year.

Ja Boet what can I say - I have met a few guys who did that at The bridge at Port Edward , some made it and one didnt -
HIS Viper spent a long time in the repair shop and was eventually sold for R45,000 including a new 582 engine - Mad bloody mad
Leprachaun

This pilot made it...in the Free state.

It must be fun but i'rather use a boat if i need to go through under a bridge.

Here in SA we are doing stuff the right way.

He wouldn't have done it if he didn't have CAA approval.
