Thanks Nigel, there was no NR reduction ( at the time of the shoot or post ) on these two images either

Same shot with a mono conversion in Silver Efex Pro 2, part of the free Nik Collection.

This works IMO, better than the colour version ?

Hi Nigel,

Thanks for the comment, the exposure was as below :-

ISO 640 with 2.4 seconds open @ F4.5 on a tripod, the lighting was 3 pairs of 2 x 400w twin Halogens on stands a good 40ft from the Aircraft

Thanks for the info RobL

The Chief Ground Crew guy I was talking to on the evening, said he did some fast taxi runs last year, could only to 2 as the brakes got so hot, he had trouble slowing the jet down particularly on the 2nd run and they had to wait 2 hours for the brakes to cool.

For the size and power of the jet, both the tyres and obviously then the brakes are fairly small compared to more modern jets of equiv weight and power.

From a shoot last night with a Vulcan, based at Wellesbourne Airfield, still in fast taxi status, but not flown since 1984
