    Great shots Pat. Nice and crisp. Those big birds are a little easier to latch on to!

    I think so Mark. This pairing was special and I will see if I can find the meaning.

    Indeed Stan except when the planes well really fast. The only downside is I only stored jpegs. Managed to turn off the saving from my raw files messing with ControlMyNikon app. I was horrified when I discovered that.

    Thanks Ricardo, I was surprised to discover that many of the shots were actually decent (in focus etc) making it a bit harder to find those really good ones

    Indeed a P51 and an F-16. Its called the Heritage Flight. It's usually a P-51 and then another piece of modern equipment. It is a representation of past and present in military machinery. I've seen this a few times at airshows and is always a very eye catching display.

    That's it Jason, I knew it represented a meeting of past and present but wanted the exact name of it.
