they're flying 2 locations this week, hopefully will be using FRA's facilities for both flights - 1 2moro which i have a snowballs chance in hell of seeing, i'm going to check the times of the show and see if i can catch them as they depart FRA

and then in Bmth on Friday so i'll be taking pics for that one \:D will see how the 2x converter copes for a pass, if its no good i'll whip it off for the rest of the show..

Nice shot from Max!
