LN Strike Eagle Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Firstly, thanks to Paul for the superb UKAR Enclosure - I know how much effort he puts into it, and it really showed. I couldn't make last years show, but thanks to Phil W, I managed it this year and my first taste of the enclosure was just brilliant. Show itself was great - superb and varied mix, with bags of classic jets, some of which I'd never seen before, like the Meteor and the Venom. Some superb civvy and warbird displays gave a nice mix, and the RAF rounded out the participation with show stealing Role Demo performance. Apologes for the quality of some of the shots - my "set up" isn't ideal for cloudy conditions. At least there was some cloudscapes, rather than just a solid grey sky!

Vesper Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Yean that canopy is off-center on the PR.9 (due to the Nav), but is it centered on that Venom? Ves Link to post Share on other sites

Rampage55 Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 Excellent work. I prefer the soft light created by the overcast. Clear blue skys can be so boring sometimes. Very nice. Cheers, Mark Link to post Share on other sites

LN Strike Eagle Posted June 19, 2007 Author Share Posted June 19, 2007 (edited) Thanks guys. The Venom's cockpit is indeed centered. Meteor and Typhoon flew together - we're getting "signature images" from the RAF this season (think USAF Heritage Flight), and this one was to mark the 100th anniversary of Sir Frank Whittle's birth by flying the RAF's first Jet fighter in formation with its most recent.
