Nice pics-taken from near the holiday park?
Just had a look on google maps and you can see the 2 Jaguar hulks sitting.

What a cracking set and videos too. :clap: :clap: :clap:
I suspect that those opportunities do not arise very often, and it is good to see that you caught them. Thanks for sharing. :thumb:

Awesome selection, something that very rare to see! They pull out beautifully!

Out of interest, what focal length were these taken at? According to the EXIF on the photos it's around 80mm, surely that can't be right?

Hello Guys , thanks for your kind comments.They were taken using the "outdoor sports mode" setting on my Panasonic FZ45... :blush: These were taken just outside the range as the aircaft were "diving" to Straffe the Targets.
43 Next week and have hinted for one of those posh ones with removable lenses from the wife :roll: Doubt it though

Here's a medley of Hawks and Super Etendards yesterday, again apologies for the poor quality.

These were shot on a Bridge Camera in Video mode.
