OMG!! You can see how heavy that aircraft is to fly and a lot of lag in the controls by the way the control column was being used, that pilot was certainly flying by the seat of his pants by anticipating the aircraft's roll and correcting. From his facial expression it was almost readable 'Don't play with me......... I am not in the mood'!! :lol:
