Great set of shots Niall - and so many in good light too! The beautifully contrasting low light in number 9 (Backtrack) is particularly impressive.

Good stuff Niall, shame I couldn't get down but too busy up north. Did you not manage to get any shots of the 12Sqn aircraft carrying Paveways?

Cracking set Niall. Difficult to pick a winner but 215 on backtrack has great light/background.

I thought I heard one of the crew at Leuchars saying ZA547 could be a little unpredictable serviceability wise.
