Great shots to all concerned - many thanks. I have to say those Alitalia colours are so classic.....stand up just as well today as they did when I use to watch the Alitalia DC-8s come and go.

Your 9 year old daughter seems to be pretty good at taking photo's. Obviously she didn't pick it up from you?

There was a oooge line of Herc's lined up Brendon but it was very hazy and difficult although i assume some got some nice shots. The 707's were quite out of sight and you could just see there tails. Very impressive mind you;)

Getting some practise in eh Andrew - good for you... Although playing at Rum Corps I'm not sure what kind of practise you were getting ;)
