This one Shillong, sandy and I flew some formation flying, two shikras, su30 & shikra, mig 29 & Su 30 at a tourist spot on top of a hill, (shiplong peak) good place to slope soar. Took the Shikra way below me and climbed her for a clean catch. Some irresponsible tourist, broken beer bottle, and a clean cut 2 stiches below my wrist.  :bow: Best part was after the cut used the duct tape to wrap the wound and flew, it bled for sometime and stopped.
Like I said shikra is for intermediate fliers, stall alpha is less, spirals easily

Sandy went into clouds for a sometime there was no shikra only sound, good blind recovery by sandy

Santhosh
Can u post the pics in the shikra build and flylog post too, or anyone with me on the FB could do the honors, thanks
