Amazingly sharp, Sam, given the subjects. I'm very surprised by the variation in background assuming it was all one day!

Great shots!! How awesome does the Typhoon look compared to the dated looking Mirage!!

 

[wessyfiesta]

They were taken over 2 days,and the weather was clear then cloudy and rain,quite a mixture

Nice set Sam, I particularly like the light on the Typhoon and the underwing detail on the last Mirage shot

Good collection. The aircraft titled 'Prop 5' is a Shadow from RAF Waddington. The most interesting one for me is #1, I didn't know the 2K had it's airbrakes there!
