Dawn Patrol?
Wondering if anyone else is thinking about getting up at Oh dark hundred in a couple of Sundays?
...And the poor sods who risked death before the Sun was properly in the sky?
..No, not Citylink travelers :P

Sunfish, the local aero club of which I am proud to be a member will conduct their annual formation flypast of the cenotaph. No, I won't be at the controls as aircraft anywhere less than 3 miles away from my aircraft scares the beejeezus out of me.

That's interesting. You would have enjoyed my Monday saunter around the Bay to practice my miserable class D radio calls. Encountered a Harvard and a Jet Provost (?) practicing formation work in the Point Cook training area.
Didn't know whether to take evasive action or try to join in for a minute or Two.

Nope. was in a Piper with those wheels up, wheels down, thingamajigs .
Anyway we decided it was sensible to get out of their way.
Sportstar would have flipped in the wake turbulence!
So you were going to formate a 95 knot SportStar onto a Provost?

Very pleasant breakfast on Sunfish's table.
I liked the female quartet, the singing as well as the uniforms.
Some neat aerobatics to round out the morning.
