Appreciate the nice comments, gents ... and ladies (FlyGirl?).
Got lucky with the giraffe. The inquisitive one is called Helen and she was evidently besotted by the MR. Followed it around everywhere. Watching the rushes of that close-up sequence is funny because just after that she started prancing around as if crowing to the others "I nearly licked the noisy thi-nnng".
Flying over the plane taking off required quite a few dummy runs before actually traversing the runway, just to get everybody settled in, and then I think we did three takes to get the good timing. The pilot was not particularly concerned. Those spray boys are exceptional pilots and they fly dare-devil all day. I think it was all done in forty minutes.
That is what I really appreciate about these Multi-Rotors. When they are dialled in they make it so easy to get really creative in a really short space of time. Wouldn't want to have tried that with the big helicopter!
