Very Gracious view on things...."a simple accident"......WoW.....Man....Thats Cool. :cool:

Thanks MAC. Good post. He was in a real hurry. That's for sure. When I saw the shute open I couldn't really believe he made it. Strange thing is that it wasn't any explotions or smoke... I think I held my breath for a good few secs there. And then the relief as the speaker informed us the pilot had made it out. The speakers last comment was something like this; 'These things happen. This is aviation you know...'

A cpl for Dale...

thanks Bud...beautiful babes in flight. i will return the favor someday..

that pilot was gracious...extremely gracious. a lesser man would have taken that moment in the spotlight to vent and cast blame or bash.... a true gentleman.

oh just stole this from another forum....a still of the moment of impact. the pony looks pretty small compared to the raider doesnt she?

The raider is a brute shining brutal power. It's huge and heavy! Nice pic. We're even bud. No worries. You have fed me top notch stuff in loads bro. I got a cpl of more of the Horsemen coming up.
The pilot there is a true officer and a gentleman. That's 4 sure. It was time 'to get proffesional' he said. Well put...

C'mon Kav we need a picture of 'Das Coat'!!

And thanks to you and U2 for the crash recreation last night!!!!

Hey Guys, Pic to come.
As of yesterdays "redarrows" cta and strike games. I do remember getting kamikazied by a Spitfire or two every time I landed my G6.

Was more the beautifully executed boom and zoom on myself whilst U2 was climbing into a firing position and subsequent coming together of you both that amused me- doing a Duxford as it's now become known!

Yea that one. It takes knowledge and skills.
Knowledge as in experiencing the Duxford incident.
Skills as in flying a singel seater ;-)

Was going to say can you even spell single seater skills but I guess that's even a struggle!!! :rolleyes:;)
And just because you have the jacket doesn't mean you have to fly the bird!!
