I was very surprised that the pilot got that last cut, :shock: it was loosing height fast and yet he still clipped it. =D*

Could see the guys were really working there. Well done chaps. =D* =D* =D* =D*

Hi Guys,

Verry impresive in difficult met conditions! I was proud to be an MPL watching you.

Saw number 2 in the formation had a moment with prop wash right after take off. I would have soiled myself!!

Good Flying.
