Misc. Aircraft

Julie Clark puts on a hell of a show flying her gorgeous T-34 Mentor.

Part of her show entails the use of fireworks. It's kinda neat.



She was haulin' freight in this low pass.



With a little smoke...............



1981 CASA 212 - 200 They used it to haul up some jumpers.



If you like aerobatics this one would have impressed you. It's a 2007 MX2 and was designed specifically for aerobatics.



The next two are of a French trainer. It's 1962 Fouga CM 170 Magister. Apparently it was picked by NATO to be the best jet trainer ever designed.





This is a father & son team flying Russian Yaks. The white one is a 1975 Yakovlev YAK 18 and was designed as and intended to be a cargo transport.

The red one is a 1991 Yakovlev YAK-55M and was designed specifically for aerobatics. It lives up to it's intended design. The YAK 18 isn't a slouch either.

It's difficult enough to do team aerobatics in prop jobs but to do them with aircraft not remotely designed the same is quite an accomplishment. Those men can fly.



Unfortunately they didn't bring this C-17 " Globemaster close enough to get a good side shot. It's a behemoth of an aircraft.

Thanks all....

The Yak shot 100 - 400mm , ISO 100, 1/3220 sec , f10

pssttttt.... if you right click the image and save it you can use an editor to see the EXIF info. If you are using XP or Windows 7 after you save it right click and select " properties ". The exif info is there as well if it's been saved so you wouldn't need a separate viewer..

Nice looking craft there :nod:

First shot is my favourite due to all the firework stuff going off.

Fireworks and aircraft always go hand in hand.

Personally I like the second one. She was haulin' freight and when I look at her in the drivers seat I feel the sense of speed.
