Just heard on TV-- Pilot is a licensed stunt flyer. BUT-- his airshow flying permit has expired.
The story gave his name. I won't put it here.
FAA is already involved.

I just don't see a problem. He was practicing a new stunt. Big whoop. Practice is to work out the bug and possible problems. And frankly the fact that he "is" a professional stunt pilot causes me to be less concerned than the reactionary non-aviation public. Would it be ok for the average pilot?? No! For a pilot who makes his or her living thrilling the masses? Sure. I can hear the show announcer now....."Playing chicken with an airplane!"
Problem. His stunt license expired last year.
I don't understand where in the FAR/AIM it says you can fly within 500' of people in aerobatic flight. From my understanding, it only allows unusual attitudes, altitudes, and acceleration.Can someone clear this up for me? How are you legally able to buzz a human with an airplane?
