I thought I heard some jet engines this morning, they both flew over my place about 15 mins ago heading North too.

They did a sweet pairs routine at Classic Fighters and did a trade in joyrides out of Woodbourne all weekend. Great to see them! They look like quite fun little numbers.

I was under the believe that they were based in Christchurch at least that's what they told us at the airshow. Some dude in Christchurch owns them
