thanks for the comments Johndav, the Lockheed Super Constellation, a beautiful looking plane to see fly and a nice sounding one as well.
here's another shot of the Meteor on the ground, different air show, different camera and lens, but the exact same aircraft
cheers

Very difficult to pick a favorite.... they are all quite good! I love the sharpness of them. The one of the C-17(??) looks almost like a model airplane, it's so perfect. Very nice work, CeCe.

Great shots! My favourite is the second one of the Super Hornet (?) with the dark clouds in the background. The engine exhaust is really cool.

thanks Rob, that was the smoke from " the wall of flame" pyrotechnics and a simulated bomb run, I printed that one and it looks pretty cool, cheers
