I was hoping to catch a 9 ship today, but the most was a 5! The thing I really want to capture is called Tornado, but l’m going to have to wait. Did get Red 6 & 7 passing closely, which I was rather pleased with! They fly at a height of about 100 feet & a speed of 400 mph. So as you can imagine this manoeuvre is over very quickly! I’m always amazed if I actually have them in the frame!
@30pics4jackiesdiamond this particular shot probably about 10 .Have the drive on continuous shooting mode. So some will be slightly before & some slightly after & hopefully one right in the middle. I tend to focus on one plane & start shooting just before the other enters the frame. I also have the added hindrance of shooting through a chain mail fence for this. I think I could do with a step ladder to get above it, but I don’t want “mod plod” to think I’m trying to jump the fence! Lol
Such an amazing capture, I had the good fortune to go to an airshow 2 years ago and they were there, I'm so envious you live near their training ground!
