Tarnished,

Please dont take it to extremes. My passenger knew the swop was happening but we both didn't know my wingman would fly the change the way he did. I didn't scare the **** out of him he has flown with me many times and will continue to do so. I am considered a very responsible pilot by a lot of qualified persons. My wingman screwed up and that was the only problem which has now been sorted out.

Intruder,

My instructors have flown mirage III, AT-6, vampires, hunters etc and are now commercial airline pilots (747-400 , A340-600, B737-800) who instruct part time on light aircraft for fun. They also fly a pitts special formation team, in which I received my training. Thanks for the sight advice.

Cyclone,

We see eachother every week day. We study the same degree at the same university and talk flying almost every hour of those days Your swop method is the one we should use, he forgot this and used a different but not incorrect method.


Regards,
Gerard.
