First of all thanks again to all involved, what an amazing experience. During the tour we saw things we don't normally see even from the airplanes! The dinner and trivia were great too, it was nice to see and meet people after seeing their names on the forum for years (since I joined in 2004!)

Your photos look great guys, I'll try to add a few of mine.
Thanks for looking,
K.

Just wanted to add my thanks also, and upload a couple of the images that I took. Looking at the other submissions I'm not sure how my images will compare but I hope you enjoy anyway.


Thanks again. Matthew

Hi folks

Again, a great weekend was had and thanks to those who organised it.

As there's been plenty of nice shots of jets landing and gesturing pilots, I thought I'd try and share some shots from last weekend with a few different perspectives, something I enjoy aiming for.

Big planes












SAABs







Personally, I don't think I photographed enough SAABs last weekend. Nonetheless, enjoy!
