Thanks folks, appreciate your comments :)

Deserving of more,shame a few more ppl wouldnt take the time to comment,considering the large amount of views everyones photos get,that goes for the "post and go" photographers who cant be bothered to post a single word to others.Thats worse than the cliques,at least they comment on certain peoples photos.

Nice seeing the Vulcan flying again and that Dutch F16 looks really good :)

Great captures thanks

Thanks again for your comments folks.

Tootz.....I use a Canon 7D SLR and for the Airshow photo's I alternated between my Canon 75-300mm and Sigma 150-500 lenses

Nice pics of the aerobatic teams and the Vulcan.

Have you been to Inverness air museum ? Interesting place, and very hands-on for sitting in Lightning cockpits etc. Some of those cockpits were a wee bit cramped !

Its at the Airport. Take a left before the Airport entrance then into the Industrial estate and its on your right. I think its signposted from the Aberdeen road right in.
£4 admission.
Allow an hour anyway.
Access to front fuselages with cockpits when dry weather in Hunter, Lightning, Valiant (?) Tanker cockpit and engineer section, and some sort of passenger aircraft.

Thanks for removing your post Mall67 :)

I do actually know what an Avro Vulcan is as witnessed the last flight before grounding in the 90's

Cracking shot of 'Orange', brilliant.

Missed Leuchars this year, make it next year hopefully.
