This was aired seven days ago. As you can see, the pilot had a few tense moments on take-off and some of the ground matting was ripped up. The willy-willy quickly passed and the pilot went on to glide several hundred km. 

 

I'm amazed that his canopy stayed open. I wonder what damage it would do to a fixed wing?
