A stunning set of pictures, I don't normally enjoy looking at plane photos but these are superb. number 1 is my favourite - great colours.

There have been various RA pics on the forum recently but, for me, these are class above. Terrific. Particularly like 2, 5 and 6 (the trails are fabulous).

But viewing is still poignant given last weeks events...

A great set, though with a bittersweet tinge given the events immediately afterwards. Numbers 2,3 and 6 for me, those three really tick all the boxes and show what skilled operators they are.

An excellent set Mike.

Impressed with your capture of No. 1, given the closing speed of the two aircraft.

Superb set, 5 is my pick although my favourite is a flickr one not posted - a 'split' over boats.

You can see some of my photos here if you are so inclined

Beautiful pics all of them Mike, and you have even managed to get the synchro pair crossing over in pic 1 without on of them being a blur - I think that is my favourite of an excellent set. Very sad business what followed alas.
