18 Mar 11 - G-AVKI - a few manoeuvres for the camera

Had a quick flight today to (finally) get some decent photos of G-AVKI in the bag. My father-in-law David is a keen photographer and we've been threatening to have a 'photo shoot' for a while now!
I was very aware of not falling into the 'air display' mentality - there have been no end of pilots killed over the years by trying something too low, too daring or just plain stupid to impress. I kept it simple, a few loops, rolls, chandelles and fly-by's. All went well and we got some nice pictures. The loop/roll images were taken with a big ol' lens - no way was I going to try sub-1000' for anyone!
