Remarks: As this europhiter speeds into the air, it leaves an awsome after burn and jet blur, it wouldn't surprise me if it left a few people with hearing aids aswell.
Remarks: The Utterly Butterly sisters sure do know how to give a good show, seen here doing what most of us couldn't do on the ground, let alone an aircraft.
