Oh and my word of advice is


Get some formation flight training before you doing *anything*.

I heard one very worrying air-to-air photo meet up the other day - having seen it from the air Im surprised they didnt hit each other - stupidity without formation experience.

And if you dont have formation experience - DONT TEACH YOURSELF.

My I remind readers to a recent issue of GASIL regarding one air-to-air photo shoot over stutgart......the result wasnt pleasant - a result of a lack of formation experience.

Failing that have fun and enjoy - but FLY THE A/C - thats more important than pratting about looking at how great the shot is.....

P.S. Due to recent experience please remind the leader about the need for lookout....I have 2 spare airprox forms in the cockpit with me at ALL times now
