Re: Stansted on a Sunday evening 2-8-2015

Hi Andy,
The Silkway #1 is a fantastic shot.
We like a bit of 747F :cool:
Everything we want from a bit of heavy metal/ cargo ... a bit of jelly or spray goes such a long way adding to the sense of power.
Great lighting btw !
All the best,
Mike.

Re: Stansted 727 and other tasty aircraft

Hi Nick,
Great stuff there.
Hard to pick especially with a 727 in the set but my fave would be number #7 the Martinair MD-11F seconds after the rotate.
Brilliant Shot, end of !
Thanks for sharing (especially the 727 !) :thumb:
