Mr Ving, you really do speak my language, Astronomy AND Aircraft.
Check this F-15 and C-130 out.
I did them with a Nikon D-50 and a Tamron 70-300mm F3.8 lens zoomed to the hilt. For some as yet un explaned reason I had a perfect day to do these shots (this is very rare where I live) most of the time it is raining or snowing or there are tornado's causing problems, I hope the weather in Australia is better than it is in Kentucky.
