Two Students Being Trained
Students (left of each pair above) flying while connected
by a "Buddy Box Lead" to their Instructor's Transmitter
allowing the instructor to take control instantly if they get into
trouble.
The instructor in the yellow jacket can relax a little (hand in pocket)
as his student is only a few flights away from taking his BMFA 'A'
certificate (It was also a freezing cold day in February!)
