Definetly fake. It's very easy to see when the "pilot" lands xD

Even though it's an rc landing, I still think that's one amazing landing job! How many can say they've landed a one wing plane, real or otherwise!
Slrman(November 13, 2008 2:23 pm) That is a good point. But I have to remember that the power-to weight ratio of an RC model can be much better than with a real plane. Still flying knife-edge and then rolling upright to land is a (More)That is a good point.

It seems it might be a fake made for a clothing company ad. But it is "Undetermined"

It looks pretty good right until the point where the plane and the ground both come into the same frame. If you could slow it down and if you really look, there is no way it is real. My other thing if this was real, why was it not on any sort of national/worldwide news that I had ever seen. Why was the pilot not interviewed to the point of near death? Just my opinion, but I would be hard pressed to believe this is real.
