Merlin at Farnborough
 
The Merlin flying display at Farnborough was excellent. Very precise flying by the aircraft commander.

The aircraft will do nicely for the US President I should think.

Any pics, video?

I would imagine that the Lynx commander will still be doing backflips! I have never seen so many front loops, back loops, stalls etc thrown into 10 minutes!!!!

Oh, come on, give a little more oil to the fire.

VIDEO???

The Lynx flying was part of the Blue Eagles Display Team (visuals below courtesy of their website). The whole team did a fantastic job on the day :D

Find out more about them here..
