    Sandy,
    Yes they copied a 707 but it just never managed to get airborne:eek:

    I cant see this having a major effect on either Boeing or Airbus, , who would buy the aircraft for starters? it might be cheap , but what about quality?
    You dont have to look far to see that most major airlines look towards western manufactured aircraft , didnt the Russian construct the TU204 , to take on the B757 and look how many of these are in service for a western airline
    But I do see the Chineses Authorities forcing their Airlines to use this aircraft, and ditching western airliners

    I have to agree with a lot that you say, but its a very sticky subject, most guys on the forum will welcome constructive-criticsim,( like my self ) but others will take the hump, then you start down a very slippery road that could lead to more trouble than its worth
    I have been lucky that the people who got me into photography, also have help me to get the best out of my equipment ,and I really do appreicate it, I also have done the old trial and error methods to suit my own preferrances
    But at the end of the Day Some People just dont want to listen,or accept criticsim

    Cheers Guys,
    Thanks for the comments
    To be quite honest Martin, I cloned the Dust spot out in the EKA , but forgot about the rest 😮 , will check in a few days and see it the camera has cleaned it off its self , it should do
    I have learned a few new tricks and still learning with the D400, so shooting into the sun, is not so much of a challenge any more 😀

    A very nice seletion Kevin. If I remember correctly, there are 6 EZY departures in just over an hour on Sunday mornings. Hopefully in the coming years there will be 6 based aircraft instead of the current 4. 🙂

    Superb shots Kevin……well done; the Loganair pilots must have a ball flying the Twotter around the highlands and islands of beautiful Scotland.

    All the best

    Have spoken to a few of the Logan Air pilots , and they all say the same thing, Greatest job in the world in Summer ,but a Pain in the backside in winter, but wouldn,t swap their jobs for anything,

    Great Shots Ian,
    The 400 lens realy makes a difference, and the Footie charters make a change from the usuall dreary inmates at Glasgow, looking forward to the UEFA Cup Final in May heres hoping for two European teams
