The photo above was taken by Rhys who is a Huey pilot and is also good with a camera.
He is in the sixth aircraft.
The 500D is a bit further out than normal as we kept things very safe but to fit all six in we couldn't get too close anyway.
Could have flown in one Huey but that would mean we would have missed out an aircraft and crew and I really wanted to avoid that.
Will be posting some more shots of the six soon just waiting to see which ones are required for a couple of magazines.
Sure was a highlight of my flying to date, and thanks again (and again) to all of those in the RNZAF and NZDF who helped make this possible.
Have had some great responses from NZDF which is pleasing.
Four "Dragging" so we could get a few shots of a pair.
