Great work Andy.

I have not seen a VC-10 tanker in years and the Camberra is sweet. The B-1 burner shot is a keeper for sure.

Well done and thanks for posting,

Eric

[Heyyyyy, congrats on the new cam, NG! LP will tell you who you have to sleep with. Or at least who he had to sleep with to get the passes.]

Lostprophet, these are totally awesome shots!! Love the (burners?) in #1, and the compo and clarity of sooo many of them. But what's with the crazy chick in that last shot...is she a Monty Python fan doing an impersonation of the Minister of Silly Walks?? :scratch:
