Hi Private Custard....Thank-you for your reply.I asked the question as once a long time ago, I was in the
camp and took a photo of some of the Army historic Flight .The hangar was then fairly new and seemed a long way
from the spectator area.I didn't have a good camera then ,it was a 3 megapic compact that had just hit the market. :whistle:
I paid well over the odds for the thing from the then Jessops.It is however well with-in reach as you have explained..cheers.. :thumb:
PPS,I will try and look for that image and will post it up if thats o.k..

A bit late with a photo to relate to my question on my last post.This photo best explains why I asked
you the question in the first place.It seems a long way off and I was at the time in the press area
a few years ago and took this at 50mm. :unsure: The green hangar as we now know is the air ambulance park place.

It seems a long way but as you say is within reach of a 300mm lens.. :) Image
Hangar located just above the stripy chair....

Good to hear back from you.Never the less not to detract too much from
your photo,it is still a good shot even though it is cropped.I do
understand it being tricky having seen the distance first hand.
Well done anyway and look forward to more from your travels... :)
