10 MAY 05 JET NOISE

There must be an air show coming up
I don't usually see and hear quite THIS much activity on a daily basis

These guys appear to be practicing a formation that requires that the jets fly reallllllly slowly for the prop guy to keep up =]

And even tho I like my new Canon G6 . . .nothing beats my Oly for 10X optical zoooom =D
No PSing other than resize and levels

Interesting assortment of planes in the same image...
Guest 25-May-2005 23:05
Very nice...those jets must have had a hard time keeping up with that prop plane!

Great capture. I sort of miss the days when my husband did this. When the planes would jet over the house our children would say "Pop's boys".

Quyite a collection of planes, my ceiling used to look like this when I was a boy !
Guest 11-May-2005 10:48
Great capture. Keep up the good work.

Neat action shot of the planes. Maybe the slower planes were filming it? And you're right about the UZI. It is a classic that has never been replaced.

some flying! Well timed catch

I was sure this had to be a Photoshop job ... are you sure it isn't?

Guest 11-May-2005 02:42
Wow! It's the Justice League of Airplanes! Great shot.

Such an odd group. Looks almost unreal. Great capture.
Guest 11-May-2005 01:14

How exciting......goose bump time.

Hi, VA! I can relate. I live next to gate 3 in Norfolk. :p

I love these formations and the F-86 at the rear is a great 'fifties icon. I think the jet pilots have to be pretty skilled to fly slowly without stalling. Oh, I shouldn't have said that, should I ?
Karen Leaf10-May-2005 22:48
This is great Pete. I love seeing the little prop right in the mix with the big bad fighters.
Robin Reid10-May-2005 22:35
Fun catch, and well done. Are you shooting RAW? If so you can crop in tighter.
I like what you got.
I took one of an F-18 from my car today while moving on the freeway (thinking about you and your jet shots), but the wide angle lens was on and I didn't get much detail.
