Drones. Stories about them are everywhere at the moment but this is the first one that has really impressed me. A French company called Quadmovr have been making some specially fast motors for drones and this guy has taken a few of them to make an incredibly fast machine. It, coupled with his amazing skill at flying the thing, makes for a rather impressive video. Just watch it when it goes into a vertical climb near the beginning!

Impressive. I wonder when we'll have our first court case for manslaughter by drone? It's only a matter of time.

Yep could have some fun with one of those...
Talking of stuff what flies, I was lucky enough to be standing in a field near the aerial display at Duxford and saw a Flying Fortress with fighter escort, including a couple of Mustangs, fly right over our heads. The fighters went on to do some dogfight manoeuvres. It was a lovely sunny day and an epic spectacle. The roar of the engines was something else...
