Default Gulfstream and light prop air to air shoot over Sydney

Hi guys,

Yesterday afternoon/evening between about 5-6 i saw what looked like a Gulfstream business jet chasing a 172/light aircraft single engine prop into the harbour. Only reason i'm guessing was an air to air photo shoot but does anyone have more info?

Kind Regards,

Matt

I didn't know a Gulfstream could fly that slow...

I believe it was a GLEX and a PA34. There were doing Air to Air shots. Not sure what for though. I think the GLEX rego was N234GX or something similar. Can't remember the PA34s.

sweet yeah, you'd be suprised Nigel what some will do for a photo
That would make sense but if it was a twin, it was just a fair way away so I struggled to see it in detail.
Thanks alot Phil.
