Default RV on TV

Who's red RV was used in an illusion on the World Magic Awards on TV tonight? Red A model with yellow design on the vertical fin and rudder. No tail number visible. Could have been a 9A or 7A. Looks like the stunt was filmed in the CA or NV desert.

Just curious.

I was watching as well, Don't think it was a -9. I believe either -6 or -7. The wings looked too short for a -9, but it could have been. Nothing in the credits. We slow-moed through them.

Default Interesting

Hi Mel,

The tail looked larger which led me to a 7 or 9. They didn't show the pilot much either and when they showed it starting the panel view didn't show the tail number.

Are you thinking what I'm thinking? $$$$
