This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

Well if it was a Hawker 700 like ours, the rudder bias would kick in :wink:

My bad Dave, I was just reading from the pilot's report of the event but he must have been speaking of another instance and not the one pictured here.

Yes, the pilot was probaby referring to a display at Wanaka or Wigram, where due to the shorter runways they actualy take off elsewhere and fly in low to start the routine, so the first move is a simulation of that take off I guess. So, we were both right, and in the instance of the photo it is a genuine take off.
