Profiles and statistics
- Bio
- "Long-distance races are the strength of this Australian flier. That's because he got his start making supply runs to the deepest regions of the outback. Joey's high-aspect-ratio wings (like those of a glider or long-distance bomber) allow him to fly long distances with ease while using less power. Joey uses an ancient didgeridoo (pipe-like wind instrument) humming technique, taught to him by the locals of the outback, to help him conserve energy for sustained flight. When he isn't humming, Joey loves telling corny jokes."[1]
Trivia
- His nationality can be confused to be German due to his main orange paint joining the red and black lines on his tailfin in the same pattern as Germany's flag.
