BRL,
That's not a nice thing to do to a chap who has provided a most interesting thread for the bemusement of others ...
..... when he comes back .... may I have a copy of the other pix as well please ? ... and thanks for the commentary on the D60, Damien ..... I would appreciate any other things you might observe as you get a bit more time on the body .... regards ....
Perhaps Danny might consider an aviation photographic forum when the cost of bandwidth becomes minimal ? ... just joking, Danny ....

My vote is that these are legit. I initially thought not, but the killer is the main gear oleo extension. It looks a tad low AOA for a flapless, but hard to call on that. Its definately too flat for a flapless - you don't need a 1 degree GP !!!
But great piccies all the same. I have a couple of grand on the 3/4/5 in various positions in Brenda's Flying School. Great little aircraft - although the 4 was the best. Pity about the vertical stab mountings.

Yes, fear not John, I am intact...
For those still uncertain and wondering how the truck moved so far/got replaced by the car, have a look at this... I've arrowed points on each frame that are the same.

Just like to add thanks to DamienB for the thread and the pics. Have to agree that the D60 is an excellent piece of kit in the right hands. Our team has two Nikon D1Xs and a D60 and the cheaper D60 seems to do the better job. Adding a 1/3rd over on metering though seems to be a requirement.

formationfoto,
Damien is new to the toy and I have pretty well made the choice to buy one ... probably others reading this thread also have an interest ...
Perhaps you could post a detailed overview of what problems you have experienced with the D60 and the work arounds you and your colleagues have developed ..... ?

D. Cheers for the pics.
I've got some cracking software on my laptop for stitching them all together, but unfortuantely they didn't overlap enough to stitch correctly. (The software even accounts for the lens being used on the camera).
If you ever get a set of photographs that actually overlap to some extent, I can stitch them together. The end result can even be put inside a virtual viewer which lets you pan around inside the panorama..
May be next time.
cheers again
