Why I went

Postby Craig. » Sun Jun 11, 2006 2:46 pm

Yes this is what I have been waiting almost 10 years for.
Typhoon on a clear day.
These are the last for tonight, so Others can post some and so I can rest:)
Hope you enjoy, Few shots of the Red arrows tomorrow, sadly they are all pretty poor.

hi 61.
We were almost dead centre with the orange cone the commentator mentioned being the centre of the display line.
I use a 70-300mm lense, most of these are cropped from 250 to 300mm.

When we walked up to the flightline we we between the air atlantique DC3 and Peter Teichmann's spit. We spent quite a bit of time back by the car though.

The Typhoon was stunning though, a real treat, and great weather. Shame no Buccaneer though :(

These aren't bad at all. The last one's a cracker. Glad you enjoyed the show. ;)
