Thank you Michal. It was a glorious sight to see in the air; I had an Airfix model of one of these as a child but had never seen a real one before. The lighting was very stark given the bright sunshine, but there was enough detail in the shadows on recovery. I was also very interested to see the helical trails from the propeller blades; they are presumably caused by vortices at the propeller tips but I've not seen them before.
