I must say that was my favorite Queen song, Especially the circumstances that it was made under. brought tears to my eyes first time I saw the music video....

I have a feeling that the mood of the flight crew was more terror then fun, if they botched the approach and put a gear in the dirt, they would have had the choice of not breaking and going of the end of the runway, or breaking and ground looping the puppy. :shock: not a fun prospect either way.......

Thank you Dave.

Very Impressive.

I tried it out at Rand with very little fuel.

Definitely not much room for the undercarriage! :shock:

No SA livery I'm afraid.
