I have that second picture hanging in my front room. Was on said trail and sitting 4th window from the front on 140 "A". A month in the states and really enjoyed DM Tucson and Mirimar....before topgun was even made. How times have changed. As a young rigger, part of the AF was emptying the ashtrays! Best days of my life. Seem to remember f-4 jock and our 10 man having a barney in the bar about him getting too close. He had a point, I was down the back and thought the same. Great pics, will see if I can find them.
Remember I had a 50mm lens and couldn't get the whole toom in!!
