Fantastic capture Sig wonderful POV
Great pic.
Das muss ja eine tolle Ausstellung gewesen sein!
I'm not really familiar with planes of any sort other than they have motors, tails and a place to sit and drive them. But I am fascinated by the placement of the wings on this thing. I would not expect it so far to the rear near the tail. What a lovely small plane!
Super capture and great POV of these very cool planes!
Love the perspective! Fantastic shot!
fabulous picture and POV
cool
These planes certainly drew the crowds to see them. An excellent clear capture.
Your pov is perfect. What a shot! I read PK's comment and had to look back at the picture again ... I see what she sees! :) The foreshortened view fools the eye.
Great shot showing the old style "greenhouses"...all those sliding sections of cockpit glass. These birds were around for a lot of WWII pilots to learn in...
I'm so envious of those people being able to get so close! The trust is so refreshing.. Its great to see! Neil and I PAID for Gold tickets to get a 'flightline' walk.. But you still could not get near the aircraft! Its like they assume you'll break them first and leave them alone after! No trust at all..... Now, in the old days.. ....... lol Great shot, thanks mate! Rob
When we go to the Reno Airraces, we usually pay on Saturday to get into the pit area. It not only allows you to get up close, the people that work on the aircraft (or own them) actually answer questions - if they are not too busy. Sort of like the Rolex Series Sports Cars. Up close - its fantastic. It must be frustrating for a fan like you and Neil to be kept at a distance.
super photo Sig .. !
GREAT SHOT
Very nice picture!!
I love this shot and POV! Of all tha carrirs that I served on - I only saw one of these SNJs land on a flight deck!
