Everything in concert , the P40 , I keep thinkin WW2 was in black and white with and were days where dark and gray , The Corsair on approach would have been better suited with the latter , or even a Ventura/Hudson on the line up , .. the first pic , :lol: yep! .... the lucky buggers having fun

Each shot above deserves a 'WOW!' - the close up detail is amazing.

My favourite is Seasprite the 7th one down, looking much for threatening that usual at that high banking angle 8)

I do like the composition of the Corsair shot, because make no mistake, it is the subject of the photo....

Co-incidentally I had the Pfalz loaded in the sim - good opportunity for a Real vs Sim!



Zac did a creditable job on the repaint I thought, "H" needs to be a little shorter and fatter is all.

Charl, nice shot of a truly gorgeous aeroplane, but I can't take credit for that paint! It came with the machine! I tweaked it and uploaded a more accurate reflection of ZK-PFZ to FlightSim, search VVFNZ and you should be able to get it. Short fat H and all! ;)

Great snaps Gav! Are you at Wanaka next week? Would be great to catch up!
