With all the media coverage of Yves Rossi’s flight the other day, you’re probably wondering why I haven’t posted anything here about it. One reason’s rather obvious- It’s been covered pretty extensively already.

The other is that I’ve covered Yves before. In fact, he was the subject of the very first PlaneMadness Podcast on May 2, 2007. You can check it out, if you don’t mind a real trip back to yesteryear, a USB mic, or quite a nervous host.

I can’t help but find it somewhat coincidental though that in PlaneMadness’s one year anniversary month, Yves is back out before the cameras again. Perhaps I should do a full episode about him and pursue an interview now, but since I’m not reporter Megyn Kelly, the opportunity for that was probably more of an option for Episode #1! (Capt’n Chris would be forever indebted though, if someone out there reading this just happened to know Yves and could provide the hookup…).

You can find Yves’s latest video here, but personally (and aside from the barrel roll and a reported loop?) I happen to like the video below a little better.

Maybe it’s the pulsating rif from Moby that adds just the right amount of awe to a jawbone that’s already on the ground? I don’t know, but there’s one thing I do know- I definitely want my own jet wing now!
