First time shooting aircraft, so a little hit and miss!! Compared to other pics posted on here they are not as good, but I am pleased with them considering I did not know what I was doing :D Actually find babies easier!

Biggest problem was trying to take pics at a low enough shutter speed to get prop blur but high enough for the pic to be sharp. Was using my 70-200 VR, so did lack a little on the length. Made the cardinal sin of not checking settings before I shot, only at the end of the day did I realise exposure was set a +1.0 :(

Us first timers have got to stick together! It's bloody difficult to get right I found, and in the excitement its easy to forget stuff or not check stuff. If you are anything like me, there's always the next show (y)
 
Looking Good Simon :) Really like the gun picture and the first one. (y)
