That was SOME flying! Notice the amount of aileron deflection they needed with him sitting way out on the wing!

I'm amazed they're still flying Blaniks, the design is almost SIXTY years old now, I used to fly one in the early 60s!
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)
