Meiringen (Switzerland), 14.09.2006

Few photos from my trip to the Meiringen airbase. Not much going on (just few F/A-18 rolls), but still interesting experience… especially just after the last photo (see below) 😀

First, a short passage by the hangars:

Then the good stuff:

And then, the ugly 😉 I’m quite used to the noise (or maybe just deaf?), the typical airshow sounds don’t make any impression on me. So here I was, standing some 20m at a side of these two Hornets, without any protection. Then they turned on the afterburners… I didn’t even bother to take the photos, just covered my head, turned a bit away and pray that I get away one more time 😉 Learnt my lesson. From now on – earplugs in!

What lens are U using when you need lower focal lenght ?

24-70/2.8L. But I don’t need it very often, mostly for the static, interiors etc.

Could I ask what camera/lenses did U used for shooting those ?

Just click on the images, they link to the pages on my website with full EXIF info 🙂 Mostly Canon 1D MarkII N (love that name…) and Canon’s 100-400IS.
