Thanks Mike. Tim (lead) has/was adjusting things based on ground crew feedback. That was one of the changes added. Turned out nice. We have been trying to step up the performances and minimize the dead time between passes.

Thumbs up

Thanks TankerBell for the video! Couldn't make GW due to Fire Season work commitments but really fun to watch the FF group online. Really looking forward to getting home and forming up in July!
