RAF Honington Photos
Enjoyed a great day at RAF Honington with some nice models, great weather and usual banter! Took a few pics which I said I'd post.

With the 2 Airworld Cougars there we thought we'd have a quick go at some formation. Soon realised that tight formation with 30k of models wasn't worth it!!

Yes, another cracking day out with a great bunch of helpful guys, and to those Ginger non believers out there(
) I clocked up my sixth practice flight on the XL, although I am electing to not rotate and land it at the moment, till I get more confident with the model, (they cost too much money to be blase with them) anyway, I'm not proud, just want to take the safe sensible approach with my turbine models, unfortunately fast responses and a quick brain don't come with age but I love jets, and will crack it in my own time
I am in the process of finishing reinstalling an intro, which I want to complete a first full flight with first before the XL.
