Ever since I started posting images of the fast jets I have received a number of emails from people saying that the images are shot by others, just reposting military shot images etc. Normally I would just send them the appropriate Far Q email.

But have decided to let the images do the telling and have posted some "Grip n Grin" shots from the various flights.

To those that arent interested apologies.

Had to include these. Only journo ever to fly Mirage 2000-5 from the front seat. This was courtesy of Dassault at the Paris Airshow. Wont bug you guys with these any further. Just wanted to prove a point to the doubters.

Red hot Ned,

Wish we had got together while you where shooting in Ontario. Sorry that you never got into one of our birds but perhaps next time.
