Good capture Don. I've never seen him race but knew his dad well, back in the late 70's when I covered a lot of motorcycle racing. Easy work in those days! Still have the slides in storage from those days.

Sat watching Dr Zhivago for the umpteenth time. Can't resist it. Home from home for me.

Second & third image are good mood setting images. A good lead in on the third but the iron work at the top distracts (IMO). The second shot is just well sorted in its framing and processing. First image under HDR? is too weak. The last shot has the flavour of HDR coming through.

Full frame resized to 800 pix. K5 with Sigma @ 200mm with Pentax auto tubes. My local Golden Orb weaver colony. I had the 50mm and 100mm macro's with me but struggled to get the right subject in frame size due to the size of the webs (could not get close enough).
Even used the 1.7x AF TC with a tube!
small passenger!
So does one need a 200mm macro lens when a good 200mm tele with a tube or two can produce some reasonable results. Only the user can decide on that one. These are basically hand held shots and have room for improvement. With good technique and frequent use there is a means to an end at low cost.

Another approach to aircraft shots: link The full res images are worth a look.
As is obvious in this thread, good shots are achievable with the correct approach. Does the equipment make a difference?

The D800E, Nikon's highest-resolution DSLR has the effect of its OLPF 'cancelled out', but the D7100, like the Pentax K-5 IIs, omits it altogether
So it seems Nikon are emulating Pentax
