    Hey Guys,

    Ex Raf Trainer used by the red arrows before they moved to BaE Hawks. Totally manual aircraft nothing computerised at all in these. I was fortunate enough to have a good look round the cockpit in one of these and by golly they be small

    Very tough to capture as they are very small and very very fast this was a >500knt pass, look close at the tail for the smoke system ;)

    C&C very welcome

    Techs will follow later dont have em to hand now

    but roughly would be D2x, 70-200 + 1.7xtc 1/500 F6.3 (i think :p) +1EV

    Tought litte so and so's

    Pete

    Hey Peter,
    perhaps a bit more room up front......but that is one way to solve contrast problems with the BG....shoot a red plane! Sweet bank and topside view.

    no doubt, sweet top view!! you can look right down inside the cockpit! agree with roman, a little room up front might make it better. man, that thing is red!!

    That sure jumps off the page! Agree with Roman about more room in front. In this one you could easily add a little more canvas in front. Great catch!

    The crop is my doing I had a little more room on the original and was a little tight with the space on that one ;)
