My hand hurts from all the clicking

Great pics Col! Some of those live near me at Archerfield Airport, I spot them going overhead time to time amidst all the learner flyers doing circuits. When the L39 jet (so loud) goes overhead I have a little chuckle of joy for the person that's spent $1,190 dollars making a dream come true, go them. It's 25min but the actual flight time is 15min. The P51 Mustang charges the same.
The airport has a little Qantas museum, lots of pics. In particular, the waiting lounge has HUGE b&w wall prints featuring Qantas. This is where Qantas first flew from and was Brisbane's main airport before Eagle Farm got built. And there's even a little plane spotting area there, nice and shady with a picnic table. There was an open day there last year, they had static displays and joy flights with the Roulette's starting the day off, I met up with them & got pics taken with them

It gets quite busy here, aside from commercial and light aircraft, I have a crazy amount of helicopters flying over (if I point my camera at them I can see muscles
. In one pic I snapped a guy flying his aircraft with only a pair of shorts on, he looked really good bathed in sunset colour
, the pic found the pilot so that came back to bite him
. They're only around 200ft. My little 14 month old grandson loves all the action while we do the bird feeding.
Thanks for the time you spent uploading all these Col, I enjoyed your pics
