Default Jet sailplane formation

Here is a link to photos from yesterday morning's jet sailplane
formation flight (the formation photos begin about halfway down the
page). This could be the first time ever that two jet sailplanes have
been in formation together. Definitely a milestone. That's Bill Hill
in the BonusJet and me in the Salto. Mitch Hudson was flying the
C-120 camera ship (and having a hard time keeping up). Mark Mocho was
hanging out the window with the camera. Thanks guys!

Very nice pictures but pity about all the dust spots. Tell Mark to
clean his camera image sensor or get busy with Photoshops spot healing
brush.
