Terrific shots, I liked them all, well done!

I have to ask, that P51 shot with the light flare (i think thats the term), did the camera capture that or did you touch it up with photoshop?  Just asking because I have been trying to get my camera to capture lights like that and so far I can only get sunlight reflecting off chrome to do it, but I would love to get aircraft lights to do it, without using photoshop...

Brilliant shots though

Looks like he got it at that tiny fraction of a second when it was perfect... a lucky break.

Great set of pictures!!  8-)

Nah, when you get lucky and the sun is at your back, you can get quite a few of those shots, i really dont like them much cause i think it takes away from the airplane.

You can achieve the light flare by using a small aperture.

Awesome shots  ;D  I hope I get some as good as these someday!
