MAN777, a result! Big rush up to Cork yesterday to nab the Heliswiss Super Puma hired for some heavy lifting up the mountains around the County Bounds between Cork and Kerry. This time had more time to compose the technial aspects of the shots in the manner you so kindly suggested so set up Shutter Priority correctly and wound the dial to 1/640th giving me f4.5 of an aperture and the shots of an RE ATR42 came out sharp as anything. Am really pleased about that though unfortunately, the Puma pulled a sneaky one and did 07 take off from the 17/35 intersection with 25/07 so it called for me to run like hell to one of the long term car parks which ate into composure time to set up the shots of the AS332. The shots achieved were better than last Sunday and one is just usable so all in all am happy at Wednesday's improvement.

Thank you. Not as discouraged now.
