That second Tornado shot is something different. Well done for them all. Which is easier fast jets or flighty birds?

I think it's fast jets, considering I got a half decent pic on my first outing, with birds it took a lot more, the jets are a lot more predictable in their flight path.Which is easier fast jets or flighty birds
I've still to do some really serious work with the stuff I took, so many pics and so little time

And likewise that Osprey that was displaying at Farnborough. 1/125s, in this, and still hardly any rotor blur. A nice dust spot, though, before someone points it out

what are the best settings to use on my k100d as I always tend to get the frozen propeller instead of blurred?
For WW2 aircraft and earlier, slower still.
