Was there an article in Flypast last month about Lightnings doing a pairs climb to high altitude for TV(BBC 2?),does anybody know transmission date or have I already missed it as usual ??

Just managed to retrieve my Flypast from the ‘closet’ spotters at work:rolleyes:
The programme title is Earth – The Biography ,presented by Iain Stewart.
Do any forum members know if this has already been shown on BBC2 ?? if not does anybody know when it is likely to be aired ??
Well worth watching since it involves a high altitude pairs climb by the two 2 seaters with a roll inverted at the top for descent.
Could not seem to get any info from BBC site… then again I am not very bright 😉 😀

Cheers Baz
