These are mighty fine aircraft in flights shots.

I'd be happy with any of them if they were mine, well done.

Excellent ! I just purchased a Sigma 150-500. I hope that I can come close to your work.

By the way....do you use the Pentax SR or the Sigma OS ?

I use the Sigma OS. I've been told that with higher mm's you shouldn't use SR.

Very nice, indeed! Either they were very low or you were high up.

Thanks Snipes. I will do the same. So far I'm happy with the Sigma OS.

Very cool, when I was younger I collected models of airplanes, mostly fighters of course. These are all right up my alley. Thanks for sharing.

As one who spent some time maintaining such wonderous machines, you have done a fantastic job of capturing the spirit in them. The grey sky helps, well done
