Sukhoi SU-26 and Smoke Ring
I was fortunate to capture a photo of the coolest aerobatic stunt I've ever seen.
The pilot's ground crew shoots off a bomb on the ground under the plane as the pilot does a low pass in front of the grandstand. The bomb produces a huge smoke ring.
The pilot performs an Immelmann turn to double back on the smoke ring. Then he flies under the smoke ring and then flies up through it. What a hoot!
