You've tagged the end of the video you wally ;-) Do you mean the set of auto-rotations ?

Impressed by everything here not least the foreign pilots studying this course in a 2nd (or 3rd?) language!

The 'raspberry ripple' paint scheme they used looks great on every aircraft they used it on. The Lightning though escaped being 'rippled' for some reason I wonder what it would have looked like 😀👍
