Saudi Tornado in Wales

[61_OTU]

Hi all,

took a trip up to Wales yesterday to catch some lowfly in advance of a trip that Craig and I have planned with Mic. I had a bit of leave to use before the end of the year, so it seemed a good way of spending a day.

Some of these shots still look a bit blurred, although it must be very hard to capture those! You did a great job on the hercs though, i love em!

That's one of the most amazing spotting-places I've seen up to date. Nicely done, practice should even improve these shots...  :)

I was wondering, how did you get the star effect in the second from last shot(herc)?

Those silly C-130's.. Thinking their fighter pilots! How cute!  ;D



Awesome shots. Which I could see something like that here in the US.

Luck mate, if steve doesn't mind me answering lol.
It's one of the strobes.

In todays operations, I think it's more a case of (generally medium level operating) fast jet pilots pretending to be Tac Hercs...

Lovely shots.....can't wait for April (when craig will probably have another unforseen reason to cancel  ;D )....anyway I'm thinking too far ahead.....still got Gatwick and Leuchars before then

Strangely enough I was learning about Cadair Idris in geography today....everyone loves glaciation :D

Awsome! 8-)

So jelous you get the opportunity to shoot jets that low.  NIMBY has the USAF's nuts in a vice over here!
