ON A KNIFE EDGE

Standing on its starboard wing with its wings partly swept the F3 slices through the mountain air as it screams through the Cad pass. With a clear view of the underside of the aircraft the recesses for the anti aircraft missiles can be seen. Once the jet clears the pass it will return to level flight before turning hard to port for Corris corner assuming the pilot intends to complete a full lap of the loop.
