Hi F3! Superb shots  :o :o

The 19sqn hawks never seem to carry the exciting kit when they're back at Valley lol!  >:(

I've recently purchased a digital SLR camera, so I'm on sharp lookout for hints and tips ;) Do you use the manual modes to capture the shots?.. I assume you must do...  I used to use a film SLR but never got brave enough to use the manual settings, I've got absolutely no excuse now I'm with digital lol!

I'll point Brittair in this general direction as I'm sure he'd like to see these ;)

Keep them coming please :)

Thanks again all :)

Birdman - You could say I use a mixture of auto and manual. I use autofocus (always the easier way) but I still control things like the ISO and Exposure settings myself.

I've seen one making bombing runs with those bomb racks (for practice bombs) on as well :P ;)

Nice shots, my only visit to Leeming so far was a 2 day trip with the Air Cadets, arrived at about 8pm or so in the evening, and stepped out to be greeted by a loud roar, and 2 sets of afterburner flames rising into the sky!!  :D
