    I agree with Kev’s comments above.. I’ve got a Z1 which is the poor relation with only 10x zoom and no anti-shake, but i think its great for static/taxying shots.. personally I dont bother too much with the flying shots as I prefer watching the flying rather photographing it… the autofocus can be a bit hit n miss on flying shots especially gray a/c in gray skies but thats common to most AF systems..
    but having said that, if I had the dosh and the commitment to learn how to use one properly I’d go for a DSLR.. problem is by the time you’ve bought somethign like a Cannon 350D, plus a telephoto lens, batteries, memory cards etc etc you’re not going to have much change from £1000??

    Take it easy.

    There’s an interesting thread struggling for life under a rain of small bears.

    Temora are coy about Winston’s construction date – anoyone? What’s the a/c you’ve got Alastair?

    Cheers!

    the CAA G-INFO page shows G-METE as was, with a build date of 1949..

    thats good news then..

    yep youre right about the UK ‘Media’ Andy… it also doesnt involve a ‘celebrity’ so not of any interest to most of joe Public.. 😉

    Steve Fosset would be an interesting bloke to spend an evening in the pub with, a few tales to tell…

    the Vimy site mentions England on the flight schedule, although its a ‘TBD’ – would be nice if it did make it over here..

    Nice to see it out n about… ref the DA, how does that work for foreign pilots normally – thinking about one-off appearences at Leg-ends etc, the a/c may only be there the day before so can it be done at that short notice, or is it normally a paperwork exercise if they’ve been validated by their own authorities?? Neil.
