No - some Lithuanian bloke was doing it and Mika was there for press duties because West sponsored the guy's plane.

I was impressed. I heard Mika's name mentioned on the TV and I rushed from the PC to have a look, and here was MIka sitting in this little plane. Then they replayed how the plane flew upside down under a bridge. COOL!!

COOL!!! Please, tell more. Was the brige high? Russian aviator Chkalov used to fly under bridge in Sanct-Peterburg. I saw that brige, t'was difficult do fly under.

I heard that the pilot wanted to race Mika - Mika on the ground in his car that is, and the pilot in his plane. I'd buy a ticket to see that.

It's DC who likes to fly upside down
I'm sure I remember him being in a plane that didn't complete the maneuver so successfully.

The bridge was very low. This guy was very good. He should apply for a job with Minardi as test driver.

They raised the water level ,by opening a near by Dam, to make it even harder.
