http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BLYAwbWg0A&feature=related - Pohlheim gliding -nice video of motorfalkes and winch launching. Good quality video so some buffering but worth it (Segelfliegruppe Steinkopf e.V. in Pohlheim)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DoZoLMDZ0cg&feature=related - Amazing finals dropping water (Smokin low pass)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ioLjWShI-ac&feature=related - More of the same but look for the low pass between the hangers and hedge hopping!! (UK Smokin High Speed) 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aE2yOgMWdak&feature=related - The aerobatics are good but count the low level loops at the end of the clip, look at the relief on the pilot at the end of the flight. There is a cockpit version of this as well (6 looping em um planador)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXu1STCmuu8&feature=related - Nimbus 3 low fly passes before he pops his motor, where's Ian's 2000' rule. Lucky he has those long wings (Glider triple low pass Nimbus 4DT @ Albatross)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8GQjka3ZXtg&feature=related - Maybe the parachutists across the way could do this from a falke? ( Passenger bails out of Blanik Glider)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5WtML0ELa3k&feature=related - Wonder if Casino ever tried this with their Pilatus? (Inverted low pass highlights)

There are some more good ones out there if you look but these should whet your appetite.
