Are these jetplane models from your club, or just visiting. Unfortunately I had to leave early, therefore only seen the two smaller jetplanes in action. :cry: I would drive/fly very far in order to see the others in action. Maybe you can keep us informed where and when one can have the oppurtunity to see them in action.

It is absolutely awesome. Retractable under carriage, 400 kph. :shock: and the sound. :lol: :lol: (**) For those who missed it, make a plan to see them. You will not regret it. :mrgreen:

Did someone take a pic of the turbine helicopter? I forgot. ##

Hi Ldel,

Thanks for all the great photo's vhpy vhpy We have only a few members currently flying jets but frequently have jet pilots visiting. I'll keep you updated on when we have a group of jet guys visiting again, you are also welcome to drop in any time, most guys fly Saturday afternoons or during the day on Sunday. For all visiting Microlighters, you are welcome at our club, please just watch out for model aircraft in the circuit and make use of the gravel runways provided, gravel runway 01L,19R can be used to backtrack all the way to the clubhouse avoiding the rough. Please come say hallo when you're in the area.

Cheers,
Mike.

Hi FZI,

We took a few video clips of the Harvards, just not sure how I'll post them here, maybe on YouTube? There should be someone who took photo's, I'll find out and post them shortly. I also have a cool video clip of Demon's display :twisted:

Cheers,
Mike.
