One of Rusty's pics??


Yes - that's one of my shots. After following the link, I am amazed
that the pictures there are the best that the ministry of defence
could manage. Doesn't say much for our 'official' photographers does
it ?


Hasn't always been the case. In my opinion, some of the best aviation
photography I've ever seen came from the RAF during the 1930s to 1950s.
Some of those B&W formation shots of Furies, Spitfires, Hurricanes, Hunters
and Lightnings still make the ol' ticker go pitter-pat...
