Many thanks for the logs and interesting comments. A couple of questions:
(1) Serial number of 'Howler 41' today?
(2) Ditto for 'Black 01' today?
(3) Landing order?
Any help much appreciated, TM74
Howler first down..17.40, Black 01 17.50

Re: Canon R7 "Black out"

Could it have been that one card filled up and the change cad menu was set up for not auto change?

That was an interesting line up from No.2 in your first video!
Yes, a touch of Afterburners on the turn to line up speeded things up.
Before they lit up the starboard afterburners, it was understeering across the threshold, nosewheel going sideways.
