Doug has provided some great views of the flying, here are a series of shots of got of the Hind

We've seen this before on SimV, thanks again to Doug and his many OW trips, the Hucks Starter

This close up shows you what it's for, the starter attached to the Hind prop

The result

The destination, amazing machine

400mm f11 1/50th, this was one of a series and this one caught the prop blades in the best position

glad you got to get close enough to see it. Both my trips to OW I was stuck at the back of large crowds lol.
great shots
