Hope they are worth a peek, and by the way, the static shots may be allotted to the wrong venues :whistle:

I will be more than happy to change the captions ;)

Very best regards as always

Very nice PB! That tail on the 45 Squadron jet and blue spine is superb looking!

If I may be allowed to call you Patrick, why do you feel the need to make the above apologies.

Terrific post Paddyboy.
Just shows that you had the skills for panning and focus at the same time.
Love the earlier shots with the aircraft clean, or double BOZ fit.
