Brilliant, just what I am looking for… just hope I get it :rolleyes: see it still had 9 days to go so hope not too many folk bid 😮

Cheers Cliff

My problem at present Dave is one of storage as Im moving house in a couple of months also I have great deal to learn so have to start small. Also is the usual hosehold politics. Wife has said yes to the panel so once she has seen how good job ive made and that i need this bit and that bit before you know it a cockpit has appeared 😉

I use the Canon 350D + Canon 70-300 IS USM which is an improved version of the 75-300 USM III.

The Autofocus is fast and the images are sharp using the IS. The IS comes into it’s own in naff light as it allows sharp images a couple of stops down from the none IS lenses. Sorry can’t speak about the sigma APO version or the Nikon versions as I’ve never used the kit.

will post a sample shot a little later.

See review here… some plane pix are here as well

Looks a cracker David. I’ve gone through the other thread as suggested by Dave T and i’m more wise as to the true costs and issues as a cockpit owner. I think as has been suggested to me already that starting with a instrument panel is the way forward and take on a full cockpit later on once I’ve got the experience.

Unless there is as bargin that cant be missed comes up 😉
