Another thing I’ve wondered about is can my camera simply be left in program mode (full auto) and achieve decent pictures if I use slide film or will I have to fiddle about with it manually to get the best results, bearing in mind the vast majority of my photos are of static aircraft, excuse my ignorance on the subject but even my prehistoric old Pentax ME had auto shutter speed!

All good points gentlemen, the more I look into it the more sense it makes to go digital. I’ve always been a Pentax man myself and if they ever get round to launching their new D-SLR I’ll have a serious look at it assuming it will take existing Pentax FA lenses, anyway thanks for all your input.

Wasn’t using thrust reverse at the gate part of the reason for that 737 coming down in the Potomac. (spelling?)
Something about blowing snow and ice into the pitots and engine sensors.

Thanks for the info mate, I have been looking at upgrading to Digi-SLR but every time I look at the price tags I get an enormous pain in the wallet!, maybe in a couple of years when the prices (hopefully) come down a bit I’ll take the plunge.

Tragedy has struck already with the sad death of David Jeffries who was killed last Thursday during practice.

Heres a little info on the F-4s. The dismantled F-4C is 63-7414 and last flew with the 136 FIS, New York ANG, the restored F-4C is 63-7699, I don’t know this particular airframes last unit but it served with the 356 TFS in Vietnam which is where it gained its MiG kill, hope this helps.

DC-10 for me, or even better still, the DC-10s big brother, the Mega Dog!, I am quite partial to the L-1011 though.;)
