Post by GARYKING » Tue Feb 08, 2011 8:18 pm

What a great day, Like Reggie, i was also day off. Decided to try my 70-200 with the 1.4x converter on. I've had a nightmare with it in the past, but today with full sun was the Ideal time to try it properly. I used various settings between F8-F11, Different ISO's blah blah blah

Here's the results........

PH-BGA

OY-NCP

N26123 - Funny Coincidence, but look at the Blue writing & grey of the Continental scheme, then look at The Ocean Sky building in the back drop.

N197DN - Rolling out on 23R
Image

G-EMBP - Only in service a few days, this is on lease to BMI regional for 6 Months.
Image

G-ECOH

9V-SWL - The main gear accelerates down 23L
Image

5A-LAH
Image

AP-BGZ

D-ISRM - Citation don't make them much smaller than this.

JY-??? - Royal Jordainian A340 OTT

Lovely selection of pictures there, its nice to have some of that big yellow thing in the sky back!!

My pick would be the rather menacing looking DHC-8 head on shot :thumbs:

Cheers,
Stephen

Hi There,

the Libyan looked well smart, I must admit.

Nice shots there.

Regards

Reggie

PS I was parked in the pub car park, which is under major re-fit at the moment. I was hoping to get rbeakfast there but I had to hold on until I got to Barton!
