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

Fantastic shots, Steve. What kind of aperture did you use for the spinner?

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