There's a lot on there that could be real but there are still some things I don't know about....
The cockpit window looks CG when it gets close towards the end.
The person flying the plan couldn't possibly keep a steady camera on the plane while flying yet when the plane is flying towards the camera in the end you don't see anyone with the controls. How could it be going 360 degrees around when the camera guy is yet you don't see someone standing or at least an antenna?

Real or fake it was pretty damn cool.

Super fake. Look at the shadow orientation if you don't believe it.

A lot of the aerobatics and smoke dissapation is also obviously fake.

Yes, it was definetely fake........probably Real Flight Simulator. However that type of flying is called 3d..It is very possible , you just have to have a huge power to weight ratio and exagerrated cotrols....I fly my Extra 300 like that in real life......just not so damn close to the ground ......theses things are expensive. Still nice skills on the simulator! The plane smack the hell out of the rudder on that torque roll!

First of all what an awsome video. But its fake. You can see in the software there was a "source of light". It was located about 75 degrees off the ground perpedicular to the runway (basically with the runway running left to right it was located in front of you 75 degrees up). As the plane passes this CGI light source, the shadow moves away from the plane as if you walked in front of a flash light. If the plane is on the left of the source the shadow is on the left of the plane, if the plane is to the right of the source then the shadow is on the right of the plane. This works if the sun is located 20 feet from the plane, but not 92 million miles, the shadow would stay to the left or right, or right below it.

It is one of those computer games that hooks into your transmitter to give you realistic practice sessions. The smoke looks computer generated as well as the entire plane when it gets close. Those games usually use real images of sky and trees to keep it more authentic looking.
