If i saw the footage that the aircraft crashed because of this stunt i wont be surprised.
What the pilot did was absolutely horrendous.
These pilots are for sure going to get disciplined because of this extremely dangerous manoeuvre. And that right wingtip just a little more down and the aircraft will crash.
These pilots sould be ashamed of themselves.
