Superb!!
Can't wait to fly the Typhoon live for you guys.

Hell, if I can fly live at Waddington Air Show in front of the RAF, VFAT should be a walk in the park. :lol:

UPDATE: Good to see several teams having signed up already. Looks like the VBI (Virtual Blue Impulse - Katana) has a Kawasaki T-4 model now.

I'm working (will be in Minneapolis) and I think Whack is too (in Latin/South America). You know we can never do back to back weekends... ;)

It's always horrible this week before VFAT for us US teams, the setup is really bad for us with Thanksgiving and a lot of people busy with business and school.
