REFLECTOR: Touch & Go's @ GNT

[Scott Derrick]

I understood that the redesign program initiated about 5 years ago had 
cured all ills and that for a leading edge technology it was considered 
a stable platform.  They practice at Grants a few times a week, doing 10 
to 30 T&Gs and full stops in all configurations. Last week they were 
doing them in a two flight formation, it was awesome!  The low level 
cruise speed fly-bys are very cool! What a sound!

Next month they are going to be doing in air deployment of the Marine's 
on board via a very long rope!  Should be  an interesting watch.
