Alright Rob
Nicely composed images. Which Camera are you using for these shots?
As you say yourself levelling is something you can fix later and always worth the effort as it will improve the image.
the blurry ones are probably the shutter speed being too low for the conditions. Were #5-#7 taken at full zoom length? Some lens can be very soft at max zoom.
A good tip for Aviation photography, Av Mode F9-10 allowing a shutter speed of about 1/400-1/800 at ISO100. obviously wx conditions change from moment to moment so keep checking the light readings. Change the ISO up a little if your not getting the higher speeds or drop to F8-7.1. Anything lower than 7.1 you may notice in pics with angles like #9 that the nose or tail may become blurry due to Depth of Field (DoF).
Also one tip, try and maintain a 3:2 crop ratio, helps when wanting to print photos etc on standard print sizes.
Also shoot on sunny days as you did as poor light and fast moving jets does not make for easy shooting. 😀
This is what I use on my Canon DSLR’s. I hope you find it useful. Keep practising, thats the fun bit!
The last one for me, good shot 😎
