Candid & Out-Takes @ Fantasy Of Flight

Unread post by Pirate »

"INA The Macon Belle" P51-C Mustang with owner of Fantasy Of Flight and pilot, Kermit Weeks deep in thought prior to the afternoon flying display and one post flight doing a Q&A with us folks. The display hangar is one of two which houses the collection.

Taken with Sony A700 + Sigma AF 100-300mm F4 EX DG (IF) APO and the hangar with Sigma 17-70mm DC.

I dream of taking shots of WWI & II airplanes. As a matter of fact I love shooting planes. No chance to do that here yet.
I thank you for all these shots your posting here Pirate.

Hi Pirate - I really like the interesting colours reflected in the shiney Mustang. (It really does look like "the cadillac of the skies" :D .)
Nex 5, Nex 6 (IR), A7M2, A99 and a bunch of lenses.

Hi Pirate,

That's a lucky hangar! Great photos as documents...

Were you allowed to sit in the pilot's seat at this exposition, just to have a feel of what it might be like to fly one?

Thanks for sharing,

Hi Yildiz,

Unfortunately no as these aircraft are privately owned by Kermit Weeks and are worth multi millions of US$ collectively, though you can go into the Sunderland.

Glad you're liking them.

Hi Markus,

I'm assuming it's a Moderator thing as I don't recall removing images/links, though the Big red nose one ought to be OK. Problem is, I can't remember what the initial images posted were.

Looks like my posts are being vetted. Sorry guys, I did post aviation links to my images on external websites, but that's disappeared as well.

Looks like my posts are being vetted (I may have posted more external links than allowed), so feel free to have a look at images accepted on the sites listed below. Sorry guys, I did post aviation links to my images on external websites, but that's disappeared as well.
