Bio
- Having already achieved great success in the world of acrobatic flying, Gordon decided to enter the world of competitive rally racing. Gordon's signature move is a reverse half Cuban Eight: starting from level flight, Gordon pulls into a 45-degree climb, performs a half roll while still climbing, and then completes five-eights of a loop to level out again. It is far more exciting to watch than to read about.
