Hey I finally got to download and watch the video. Great stuff nice editing. Was I always that far below you? Didn't we ever fly closer together? Mostly it just made me miss it. Well thanks for posting. Awesome.

@bradismyfriend: hey brad, as I recall you were above me loads of times in this flight but i only got the vid cam out when i was high - sorry if i created the wrong impression .... but i think it was only my 2nd flight carrying a video camera and i was being a bit cautious in using it.  I remember climbing right up to you and oriol near chalt but then realising you were distracted by doing wing tip to wing tip filming :). Good fun to look back - pakistan flying - like nowhere else!
