No probs Dave, will make short flights to Manchester and back therefore should get through a number by end of Friday.

Also quite happy to do the same with the 500s' next week if the T3s' are tanked up.

Let me know.

Re: Its all a bit Star Wars...

The beam heats up the pressurised fuel tank of the outbound missile and causes it to rupture, destroying the missile.
