    Why?

    What was all the flying in aid of? Did I miss some event or was this just a day of flying for the hell of it!

    Cheers

    Why the sneer?

    Was it/is it a sneer? I was being more sarcastic than anything else.

    Personally I feel that there is too much of a reliance by photographers on image editing tools to get the “perfect” and “professional” looking pictures nowadays.

    Don’t get me wrong, I use image editing software myself but try to stay away from it as much as I can because I feel that showing the original image says more about the photographer (composition, lighting etc.) rather than showing that they are competant at “editing” their images.

    Just my own opinion though.

    Yak fan, I suppose I was trying to be kind to the photographer, who seems to have one leg shorter than the other.

    Well I suppose dan needs to learn how to use Photoshop like the “professional” photographers around here do :rolleyes:

    Nice pics by the way. Were these taken with your S5000? I can’t seem to get good prop blur on mine without the pictures coming out knackered.

    Break 3 eggs into a cup and beat them with a fork.

    Put a frying pan on the cooker, put a small amount of oil in and wait until it’s really hot (spread the oil around the pan to stop the omlette sticking).

    When really hot, pour the beaten eggs into the pan. Spread it all out. Use a fork or spatula to keep moving it around abit while it cooks. Keep scraping it from the sides and back into the middle. Chuck some grated cheese into it all while it cooking. Don’t have it too hot or you will burn it. You’ll know when it is cooked cause it will all solidify a bit. You can flip it over to “seal” the other side if you like. Bit hard with the cheese in there though.

    Once done just get a spatula under it and put it onto a plate folded in half The omlette… not the plate!).

    Great with some nice oven chips or something.

    Hope you don’t starve!

    My explanation is not too good sorry!

    IMO Alexander Lippisch and Wilhelm Messerschmitt are my favourite aircraft designers… truly wonderful aircraft from both.

    Can you imagine the trouble they would have trying to get the traffic sorted if they rotated the show around the country? They have enough trouble as it is trying to get it sorted just for Fairford alone at the moment!

    I see 2 solutions:
    1) you (your parents) have way too much money, and you don’t know much about aviation
    2) you try to be interesting, but still don’t know much about aviation…

    Those aren’t solutions… they just stink of jealously to me.
    I don’t think there is any need for personal attacks like that when the lad is only looking for help.
