Just superb images, andgreat captrues, props are perfect and the color and clarity is without reproach.

After the military US army L18 , Hawker Sea Fury, then a p40 (made famous by the flying tigers in china) thanks for corrections on the Hawker and L18 Puddle.

Really impressive,

Wade

The "J3" I think is more appropriately a Piper L18 (military version of a PA18 Super Cub, evidenced by the front-seat solo pilot, flaps, and a couple other things) and the "Bearcat" is a Hawker Seafury. The last one before the Lancaster is a Percival Provost

The AVRO Triplane is a replica made for the movie "Those Magnificent Men & Their Flying Machines", but still magnificent nonetheless - as are the pictures, good job!

Thanks for the comments and the help ID'ing - with birds I'm fine, planes and I'm lost

thanks for the corrections,

gosh, I knew that was a super cub, I even have time in one, arrggg. Mental lapse there, And thanks for my knowledge on the seafury, the 5 props and RAF logo should have clued me in! They used a huge Bristol (sp) air cooled Radial right? with that big nose spinner! Sweet, never see this one before.

Those are great images! The detail is great and the exposure was spot on!

Great photos but I think the labels on the Sea Fury and the J-3 are the wrong way round.

The roundels on the Sea Fury are strictly speaking not RAF roundels but Fleet Air Arm. The RAF equivalent of the Sea Fury was the Tempest.

It's a Gloster Gladiator.

Very nice work. The Sea Fury is one of my all time favorite aircraft. Thanks for sharing these. It made my day. :smile:

Love it, we have an airshow in Pgh next month.

 

[ozarkshome]

Excellent!

 

[Desert Rat]

WOW these are pretty sweet especially those old old tri wing planes...Don't see those out here...

 

[PGB]

These are some of the best plane shots i've seen posted.

Keep up the good work.

I can't wait till we get a good airshow near us.

With Regards,

These are all really fine. Capturing any prop blur on those ancient planes must have taken a real steady hand.

Just awesome super sharp pics. Did I miss the lens you used??
