Here's what you don't usually get to see. I've got plenty more like these. ::)
All taken on the same day from the same location within about 30 minutes.

Hmmm, now where did he go? ???


Darn it, missed again. ::)


Don't think I'm cut out for this lark somehow. Maybe I'll call it a day & head for home.  >:(


Ahhhh, that's better. See what I mean?


LOL. I'm glad I stayed now.

LOL fair example. Good photos too. But my comments were based on static aircraft mainly or other situations where time wasnt an issue

But thanks for prooving your point

This is about the best I can expect from my little camera. It's a case of being in the right place at the right time & persevering. I almost gave up in disgust to go home in a bad mood. Can you imagine how I felt when my efforts paid off? Just think what Mr. Bones could have done in my place with his latest gear.

I'd say that penultimate shot was worth it Doug Of course I'm biased

Hi Doug...!

Photo No.3...
One of my all-time favourites, a Yak 50 taildragger?
The only thing which spoils them is the <38 gallons per hour avgas burn with the throttle nailed to the stop... :o...!
LOL...!
One of the main UK importers, Richard Goode, is located a few miles from me...>>>

If I'd missed that shot I would have thrown my camera on the ground, jumped on it, gone home in a foul mood, put a big hammer through my PC & taken up something sensible like knitting.

Hi Paul. Shame I missed that one. Didn't allow for the shutter delay & follow it through. It's a bad habit of mine. I almost gave up at that point & .............. see the above comment. LOL

PS. Richard Goode used to be the British aerobatic champion. I seem to remember he was sick every time he went up.
