I’m sure it is, and very agile too, but maybe not a jet! 😉

It’s not a jet but it’s used to train fast jet pilots.

Believe it or not the Embraer/Shorts Tucano is a fast jet trainer. 🙂

Love how the crew are kitted out as if they are about to go out for a sortie in a Tornado or equivalent fast fighter, but are infact only in a wee prop. 😀

A wider shot, showing perhaps the Newbridge approach and motorway,with the 757 nearing the threshold would have explained things pictorially and created a context for discussion.

I Was in a car park surrounded by fences an Porta Cabins.

The shot was taken at 200mm and tightly cropped, hence
the ‘noise’

Here’s a overhead shot from the same location

Ooops! The pic was taken close to Newbridge, west of EDI.
I was merely commenting on the altitude of aircraft at
different distances from touchdown…

This one was taken from my garden.

Hard to decide Joe unless you also present a frame of reference in the shot for the un EDI’d. Newbridge is probably less than a mile from the piano keys at EDI. Your Continental shot could have been taken anywhere and at pretty much any focal length.

A wider shot, showing perhaps the Newbridge approach and motorway,with the 757 nearing the threshold would have explained things pictorially and created a context for discussion.

On the other hand, knowing the Livingston area quite well, I may be able to pin point your street, judging from the BA 757 shot. 😀
