Red Bull Air
Races 2004
3 races are planned this
year however it is confirmed that Jurgis will not compete. Pilots, no
matter how well qualified, need to be invited to these races. There is
no open qualification only the invitation of the controlling Red Bull
sponsored Pilot/Organizers. Unfortunate for what could have been an
exciting competition that the best Pilots are excluded.

Jurgis
made a wildly successful debut in the Southern Hemisphere at Warbirds
over Wanaka 2004 International Air Show April 9th to 11th. Flying his
Su 31 "Kuzoku" for the first time in New Zealand, he demonstrated the
amazing piloting capabilities he has become renowned for in other parts
of the World.
From the Cobras after take off and then flying
away inverted from a cobra at approximately 100m altitude he went on to
show the Kairys Wheel (this time 22 turns) vertical down snaprolls and
then many hover maneuvers such as the vertical up snaproll turning into
a slow half roll hover and then a very small loops.
The International and Kiwi audience of pilots and air show fans were in
"awe" (from an enthusiastic fan's after show email received
today).
Jurgis was very impressed with the enthusiasm and hospitality of the
Kiwi fans and show organizers and is looking forward to more
opportunities to fly "down under" (and get some fishing in too!)
