Giant 1:5 scale English Electric Lightning

Luke, owner and pilot, seemed to be in particularly aggressive mood at the weekend. He was flying skin out of his Lightning to the delight of all watching. Basically it's how it should be flown anyway.

Just to add that...liking how the higher resolution picks up the heat haze created out of the back of the engine, especially on the slo mo on landing at the end of the vid.

Very nice, is that Ali's ex model, its on my build list if I live that long
That left main gear looked a bit shaky
Thanks Dom

D, I think your videos get better and better every time, another great show.
Looks like a great day for everyone, what I remember about the lightnings at Leconfield was the trail of black smoke from the rear as they took off over our house in Beverley, oh, and the ear splitting noise, thanks D.

Yes, it's one of Ali's old rides, and obviously in very capable hands. Appreciate the compliments

I will point out the LG observation when I next see Paul and Luke. Cheers.
