Many thanks Ernie. Some exciting stuff planned for 2024✈️. Wishing you health and happiness

[@timmiller7589]

Dafydd, incredible video moments from ‘23 for sure! Enjoy all that you post. The Greek F-4 was great to see. I seen these flying low over my home area in southeastern Kentucky USA back in the day. It would be cool to catch one of the PHANTOMS in the Mach Loop for old times sake. Best wishes for a blessed New Year’s in 2024 !

[@DafyddPhillips]

Many thanks Tim and appreciate you watching my Chanel. My plan is to head back out to Greece in the spring and hope the phantoms don’t shy away from the valleys this time. Have a prosperous 2024. 👍

[@davidwheatcroft2797]

Outstanding! Good job. I flew the Mach loop at a crappy 110kts BUT at 50ft. No wires on the route. Had to have an instructor in the back to stop us hurting ourselves....there is a tendency to go lower and lower which MUST be resisted. CAVU slies to all aviators and enthousiasts!
