I've never seen a better demonstration of the complete mastery of power management.

His amazing talent, impeccably refined craft and unique ability to safely fly an aircraft to the limits of its envelope and beyond, is the essence of what many aviators aspire to achieve. Mr. Hoovers life-long devotion to aviation along with his ability to demonstrate one mans talent to master a series of great complexities such as his unique style of flight, have made him one of modern aviations most respected, at times controversial, yet undoubtedly admired living legends.
