Video: Kent Pietsch 'Deadstick' Routine At 2010 Reno Air Races

 This is a nicely shot video by youtuber wunkus shows Kent Pietsch doing his 'deadstick' routine from 6,500' in his Interstate Cadet recently at the Reno Air Races. The airplane and tip smoke really look great against the beautiful Reno sky, and placing the prop spinner in the hand of the announcer at the end is a pretty sweet way to end an akro routine with no engine power!

 To learn more about the three very different acts that he flies in the Cadet, check out my podcast interview with Kent Pietsch from a few months back. Kent's a great guy and a great pilot : )
