It says 7-10 MPH, which is even slower than Kts. I agree it looks faster than than that. I was about to give you hell about it being an Avian because of the bird on the side, but then saw it's a Thunder.
I'm a curious guy, I wonder if the black balloon in the background still flew after seeing this?
I also notice they travelled 13 miles before landing...was he going that fast, or did he try to carry on the rest of the flight like normal? I would be trying to land asap.
