The best set I've seen to date. That line up on the runway is awesome.

Nice shots Dan! You were obviously in a good spot!

Not so keen on the watermarks though for what it is worth.

8,9 + 10 are absolutely the biz but 8 is the pick of a very fine crop.

Very good

That line is impressive

I couldn't be there for the 28th but naturally have seen quite a few photos of the 'elephant' walk but I didn't realize until seeing your shots that they appear to have turned on the runway to take a bow? Wish I could have seen that.

Plus you have some decent light where as most of the shots I have seen are in fairly average light

I don't have a problem with the watermark - it is out of the way from the main subject.

The jets lined up on a angle to start with And stayed there for a few minutes then they all moved and lined up on the centre line and stayed there for five mins or so. Then taxied in one by one. We saw the break in the clouds coming and just hoped it stayed long enough and thankfully the sun shon at the perfect time.
