Group Flight: Amerley Aerodrome (Military) YAMB, Queensland

We took off from Amberley Aerodrome headed for a touch and go at Archerfield.

The brisbane center controller happened to be online so we requested clearance to overfly the Brisbane CBD as well as some dangerously low flight under the story bridge.

Not so long after some intense manouvers my P-51 engine failed on me with plumes of black smoke trailing behind, after ditching it on a field I switched to a 500s - and we headed back to Amberley for a formation high speed pass over of the runway in inverted flight, followed by a joint landing - taking each side of the runway.

Good times.

Great pictures Hamish,

Seems like a really good flight. Pity i couldn't make it due to the work i had. Nice to see people enjoying Group Flights.
