A bit too tight on the A10 but otherwise great shots.
What lens & camera combo were you using?

Have tickets for Sunday... hope the weather holds... Looking forward to seeing the Vulcan.
Prop trails are great........

Any recommendations on were to stand?

As close to the centre of the runway as possible as that's where most of the displays are centered from. Also keep your eye our for the Polish Mig-29 take off, it's pretty impressive!

Looks set to brighten up nicely tomorrow afternoon now! Have a great day

Had a great day today with the weather, even if I do now resemble a tomato!
Looking forward to going through the shots tomorrow on my main PC.

For now here's a few shots of the Finnish F/A-18 and the Belgian F-16 from yesterdays display.

Posting from a tiny laptop so cant really tell if these are any good or not!

Nice to see some good shots being posted! Progress is slow going through mine today, Lightroom is crashing on every export! Google isn't helping either. Anyone has this issue?

Lovely shots pete

I spent Wednesday and Thursday at Park & View East, Friday up at the blue section near the center point and Sat & Sun in the red section not to far from you by the sounds of it!

Finally finished working through all of my shots now. Got quite a few I'm pleased with although I found the Sigma 150-600 Sport didn't produce as many sharp shots as I would have liked even when shooting at F8 or above as I was for most of the week.

Here's the final lot from me. The first Belgian F-16 shots being the one's I'm most pleased with. They have even been shared on their official Facebook page
