Where is that book extract from please?
G'day ABX, you wouldn't think there was going to be any sunshine at 0700local. Sky cleared to a bit worse than sct by 1030 and when these photoes taken it was blowing about 15+xwind and isol cu. it started coming back in late aftn. Good show, considering xw kept nearly all the tailies on the ground and the rain at TEM kept the Sabre and Boston grounded. Judie's P40 copped a flat tail wheel then the xw picked up a bit too much.
Yeah, thought you must have been out flying Jaba, given the near cyclonic conditions down in that part of the world!

Geez Jaba - look at all those ripples in ya skin!
Looks like an impending spar failure to me.

Not as noticeable on the other wing....
Does she fly in circles Jaba and did Jaba Jnr do the riveting on that one?

Great shots
The first minute or so is corporate dull - but the rest well worth a look.

Exceptional video that.
First of type certainly looks like a lot of work. I assume the train is of the very fast type.
Best bits, the impressive climb rate and it actually sounds like a fixed wing as it flies past!

Jamair, I think you need your time down in the south flying between YBCV and YBBN in daylight hours so you can study up.
Chimbu Warrior seems to have it right Chocky frog to him.....or perhaps a Coopers Pale Ale, as I don't have any frogs in the fridge.
