Stealth tornado......we were all stood around chatting, but thanks to craig and his sharp vision we just managed to catch this GR4 as it entered the valley....the perfect end to a perfect day :)

Wow mic, both threads are great. Love the Tonka head on and the Herc nose in your other thread.

I am seriously thinking of binning this years air display and taking a couple of days "Cadding"

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Must be harder than it looks to get a good result there. Those little jets looks slippery and fast! Great shot on the Tornado... perfect angle!

I know about the mm thing... I once tried to squeez my 70-300 to 50 mm on an arriving 747... Sometimes you're just too close... or to slow...
