Nice day weather wise but a bad day for photos due to the position of the sun, so i decided to shoot RAW (for the first time) and be more selective with my shooting rather than just filling the cards up.

The Typhoon one (flying) is a great capture. It could do with a contrast boost and a crop though, then it would truly be a great shot! Send me the full size one and Ill see what I could do for you. Really good shot, well done.
 
Good shots there and i was wishing for a 400mm lens on the day as my 300mm was suffering. Also you got some good shots from down your end of the runway as down next to the B52 all we seemed to get was the belly of the plane or side on, top views of the planes were lacking for us.

Wow! That third Typhoon shot is very nice. Good job!

A couple of the shots have distracting backgrounds but to be fair the choices of places to take photos from it would be hard to avoid.

As I said on SCM's post you would benefit from using maybe +2/3 of exposure compensation to stop the jets from being underexposed.

But overall you have some very nice shots there.
 
Some amazing shots there mate, as Gord said, i think that you should have gone down a couple of stops on the darker bodied planes to ensure the perfect exposure of them. Some of them could benifit from some cropping but i still think theyre all amazing shots, if i had to pick a favourite it would be the first or third shot, they look great and no quibbles with them :)

EDIT: What lens did you use because they all look super sharp?
