Thanks D, I love the slow-mo I also like to see the scale against the pilot.
You usually show that at the end of the film but I didn't see it this time.
I'm definitely going to one of the shows this year, hopfully the nats that BB mentioned.
Keep em coming, boz

Another super model, its on my list to buy when I make my first million, god knows what this one is worth Boz I think it would make my eyes water
Good vid Dom as Boz says keep them coming
Did he forget to switch on the gyro for a start as it seemed a bit twitchy on the pitch, what a hanger full they have with the big Lightning both from Aerworld I think
Thanks: boz
