hang gliding pics

 

The following photos were taken in 2003 by a friend. They are somewhat grainy because they were not digital photos and I have scanned them from old photographs. I was taking off from stanwell park in Moyes XT-165 hangglider.

Nice pics. Nomis, you have made my day with the overfly pic. When and where did you take that one?

I'm submitting this one on behalf of my old man who took this en-route to Cairns on a Virgin Blue flight a year or so ago.;)

This time a submission on behalf of my brother, who is becoming quite the snapper! BTW I already have AF subscription so if his pic's win he gets it, he is aware and has allowed permission to upload for him. He took this C310R at CG earlier this yr, this is a nice machine seen it around BK a few times before.

Another on behalf of the brother, Pearl Aviation VH PSM Citation II and GAM VH UJL Shrike Commander on the Apron in Scone. Looks like they're playing chicken!

And lastly my own entry, I used a slower shutter speed to get the blurred effect I want while my best mate and to be best man at my wedding taxied our PA31-350 VH-MKK to the Air BP bowser in Wagga while we waited for the local AAE bloke to turn up before we headed home to SY on a late Friday Arvo Via CTM.

Great shot YKAT. For those not familiar with Katoomba airfield, here is some more detail.

 

Remember, everyone is always welcome, either by car, or aircraft - some come visit some time.

Great Photos

 

Chris I agree with Peter re the Strikemaster, but Mr crazy diamond SNR's shot of the 737 wing (above) must be in the running too.

 

Regards, Decca.

An excellent variety of pics all!!!!! Thanks for the info too Nomis :) That is one clean DJ (Virgin) 738 wing!!

Decca, and Darren, thanks guys, the old man was stoked to see the response, he's a real photography nut and thinks its not bad considering it was with his cheapo digital.

Highflyer. The Trojan shot at raglan must have been before the threshold was moved. In those days you had to duck sometimes as the piano keys were about 15' away and at head height.

JULY PHOTO COMPETITION

 

The entries for the month of July have been judged and there's no standout winner, so I am combining the months of July and August in the hope that someone will submit something very special. We're after quality results in the areas of composition, subject focus and light. No images in this lot display all three, so please keep trying. The main thing is that you're all enjoying each other's photos, so that's got to be a good outcome.

 

Until next month, safe flying.
