You could be right there Toby as I've never managed to 'capture' him on film/silicone
He's been away on a course (that he's just finished) and is immediately lined up for another one so flying.. even display flying, would have been a welcome respite. Nice to maintain an air of annonimity mind you

'Ang on. Thats a bit rich innit???
They can have a private flypast for the officers mess.............but they are tasked with more important things than airshows which are paid for..............???
Who pays for the officers mess flypast............Joe public??? :shock:

Steve..
I bet it's pure coincidence that these three met up coming off task and decided to do an impromptu 'training sortie' by practising a formation flypast. The fact that the officers mess had a bash was also probably pure concidence :roll: :-$
Btw.. I've seen
two come in like this and it's still impressive. Perhaps
two is for a birthday!

Just read the original again and see that
three is for a birthday. What might two be for then???? Perhaps three is for someone you like and two is for a.. err, someone you don't!
