Thanks for the comments Dave to be honest there wasn't to much work involved it was just a matter of taking the shot splitting it adding the lightning effects then joining it up again, but I must admit it did come out far better than I expected it to.

I used to try and catch the lightning too but never could but with the effects thing the lightning covers the whole pic that's the reason I had to split it in half and add the lightning effects to the half without the aircraft then join it up againnow I am giving away all my secret

I'm having a bit of a problem. I hate choppers and I've used the CS Herc about 3 times in a row (unsuccessfully, I might add). May have to be the dreaded Catalina ...

Leave the engines at 35+ hg manifold pressure for a while and you'll have a MAYDAY situation on your hands.

*No chance*!!! Next show at Ardmore (D-Day) I'm taking my shoulder launched SAM's with me (cunningly disguised as Warbirds poster tubes). If one of those nasty little egg-beaters even dares to start his engines, it'll be for the last time

Uncle Doug has a wicked sense of humour, so this may prove to be prophetic
