Cracking shots Gromit :D

Think the WSO clocked you though Tom!

[Fake Sealion]

Just complemented you on your Sparrows piccies....then spotted these......blimey !

Anyone know what the green things are in front of each crewman......or will you have to shoot me if you tell?

HUD's (Head Up Displays). For the uninitiated, it's a transparent screen between you and the front window that can display various nav, systems and targeting info, allowing you to see whats outside instead of going heads down and looking at the instruments - very usefull when steaming through the Welsh weeds at warp factor lots! It can reflect a particular colour depending on it's coating and the angle viewed.

The 'rear' in the T1 will be happy they chose white flying gloves - they nicely disguise the true colour of one's knuckles :} Jammy bu66er - what I wouldn't give...

:cool: shots - :ok: for posting

Teej,

Without doubt the best series of pics i've ever seen... with the notable exception of the 1984 Christmas edition of Razzle.

Good job fella :ok:

[passpartout]

Great pictures, but don't they make the jet look fat and dumpy?;)

[glad rag]

That front hud makes a great xxxxxx xxxxx..............:sad:

[TOPBUNKER]

And look at all those sticky-outy non-stealthy thingumy wing leading edge things - reminds me of a Tiger Moth (or was it a Stampe)! - Bless BAE et al, one day they might make a machine that sells on its own merit rather than relying on oily bribes!!!

[Runaway Gun]

Personally, if Enemy Pilot observes the sticky outy things and dumpy appearance, then I expect that's the last thing that will enter his mind... before he gets waxed. :ok:

[Diedtrying]

Great pics, Just out of curiosity, what kind of camera and lens are you using?

[TEEEJ]

Thanks for the comments.

For those images I used a Nikon D2X fitted with a Nikkor 300mm f/2.8.

[Diedtrying]

So it's no small chunk of glass then. :ok:

[garp]

Absolutely fantastic pictures Tom. Make sure to share again next time you go to that spot.

I'm still after the F-15s at low-level. I believe that they are height restricted?
