    Yeah the Mach loop is nirvana for aviation specialist. Check out a guy called Nick Thompson. His stuff is interesting to browse. He does some good Motorsport too.

    You would like it where I live if planes are your thing. I am 2 miles from Lakenheath and they are all round here, even not far off the roof of my bungalow.

    It does make the Hawk look like a model plane mate. It's the daddy, the F15. Never been beat in a dog fight.,when the tak the last F22 to the bone yard, they'll give the pilot a lift home in an F15.

    What I'll try and do is fit my gopro onto the flash mount on the camera ,

    So hopefully I'll get pics and some video coverage ,

    Don't know what it I'll look like as I've never tried it before .

    I do fancy it. But at the moment I can only do Saturday afternoon or Sunday. I don't suppose they can guarantee planes either. Must be subjected to weather conditions etc etc

    If it's Crab Air they won't do early starts, late finishes, lunchtimes, elevenses, afternoon tea, weekends or bad weather. Think students with a £30,000,000 Fiesta and Daddy's credit card for the fuel ;)

    Slightly off topic a little

    My good Mate Matt has a little blog he's had going since he left the uk for a Job in Indo as a bush pilot.

    some great pics from his camera and go pro on his plane
    Bush Flying Diaries, Indonesia

    he's also the chap in the new mini documentary Worst place to be a pilot. which is balls as he loves his job and why his 2 years job over there is still going after 5 years
