A couple of friends of mind went flying and this happened!

Two friends of mine took some air to air shots recently on a typical Irish summer's day! Just shows how tricky it can be.

I love Ireland.  Never have been.  Nor other family.....since 1720. :aok

Flew over it twice.  Wished I had gone there.

You should put it on your bucket list then! Visit Ireland!

As for the video. I wish I'd seen the flyover. The Irish Air Corps used two seat Vampires. I used to see them a lot as I lived near the base. The ones in the video are Norwegian though.

The photo plane is an RV 7. I've been trying to get a flight in it for years!
