The Red Bull plane, it that a Kit Fox?

Looks like it but also kinda doesn't.

It amazes me how a sports drink company can bring to the table the talent to dominate motorsports.  

 

EDIT:  I guess they were clever enough to make an empire off an energy drink.

     It amazes me even more that some people drink a lot of that crap.

It is almost like they think that it is good for them.

It's always fun to figure out which aircraft appear in posts. 

The Red Bull plane from the Dubai stunt is a Carbon Cub manufactured by CubCrafters. 

The aircraft in the image with the young lady could be a Ki-43, Ki-84, or Ki-100.

The Dornier Do 31 VTOL looks very art deco to me. When I Googled 'art deco planes,' I got a few that did not include this one.

The DH.91 was an aircraft more associated with the Art Deco era. Okay, but the Do 31 does look like a Gerry Anderson plane from Thunderbirds. A little.

I’m just a Nintendo-level pilot (a bad one) with zero license and no clue how avionics even work—but that parachute landing looks terrifying. I’m pretty sure the glider and chute are meant to function like that, but it just looks like it’s about to drop out of the sky. That steep? That fast? I feel like I’m watching gravity win…

    Hard to believe that thing can fly!

Isn't that called a "Super Guppy"?
