PC 9 formation
« on: July 26, 2011, 10:19:45 pm »
Did anyone happen to see a formation of four PC 9's today at around 3pm?  I was out the back garden and they seemed to be in a holding pattern above for around 15 minutes.  Going on past experiences they normally do this prior to getting the call in for a flypast.  Anyone shed any light?

It may have been for the recruits passing-out parade at Bal. :airforce_wink:
