Vampire lunch break

Post by TJJ »

At very short notice a couple of weeks ago I found myself tightly strapped into a Cessna 172 with no door at 2000 feet over the QE2 Bridge waiting to rendezvous with the Vampire T11 on its way back from a display at Old Hay. Conditions were fairly challenging to say the least, so I was quite pleased with the results.
