Here are the remainders of my pictures from the flight, hope you enjoy! Smiley

...
Another view out of the door, note the rotor blade in the top-right hand corner of the shot.

...
Better weather along our route, somewhere above Dorset I believe...

SOME TIME LATER

...
Just after getting off, here's the Chinook in my school field.

...
And away she goes, after an hour of my life I certainly won't forget Cheesy

Was a brilliant day, thanks for looking! Smiley

Health and Safety, I should imagine...oh well, I'd rather be safe in the Chinook than ramp surf and fall out of the back.... Cheesy

Looks nice!

Did you get a promotion? Last time I looked at your signature I think it was Cadet Corporal...

I would love to fly something like that. 100sqn RAF have the hawks and on rare occasions, cadets from our sqn can fly in them.


Good shots  Wink

Thanks Machineman, yes, I have been promoted to Sgt. Cheesy

A flight in a Hawk! That'd be brilliant fun! Shocked Cheesy

Congrats  Wink

Ive just completed first class and awaiting the badge. Just need to go shooting to pretty much secure Bronze DofE.

Flight in a hawk- brilliant fun!
Flying a hawk- AWSOME fun
Chasing another cadet in a sort of cat and dog type thing- PWNAGE!
