Texan mk2

This is a training aircraft for RAF pilots before they move onto jets. The pilot is in the front and the instructor in the rear. By the time they reach this level of low level flying they are well on their way to flying jets. I got the shutter speed wrong for this shot. I was still on jet settings.
Fun to see lots of people looking up too…

I had no idea it got so busy down there!

Great capture, I like it. What settings would you have changed? Slower shutter for more prop/background blur?

@beverley365 It's a wonderful day out. But, it can become very cold and sometimes there are no aircraft.

@plebster Yeap, a slower shutter for prop blur. I didn't want background blur because I wanted to see the people.

@clifford Cool.
At least you got a small bit of blur at the tips there. I guess you wouldn’t need to change it by much, the speed those things turn.

I rather like it frozen in motion. And I love seeing the people in the distance. :)
