i can almost see them!!!,we took this pick at Taromeo as the jet flew over

with my vixen ED 81 on porta mount with digital camera attached to T6

naglar 13mm.i was very pleased with this,we got doors,windows and

wing registration 9V HTS,my son looked it up in "airlines.com"

we new it was airbus A330,he varient type and that it had just come

of the production line in the factory at Touluse France.
so for something traveling at 700kmh at 5000 feet,was extreme optical sport,

Pft, that's nothing...living under the flight path we can see the hostie's makeup without magnification

Great pics and resolution on a moving target

Thats great Adam,i prefer to get closer than that to hossties',but

you will have to visit a different forum to see those pics,

This project,however,was to demonstrate what can be achieved with

the equipment most people have in this forum,the plane,i found out

was travelliing much higher than 5000ft,so to clearly get rego was a

fair achivement,the seeing conditions played a major part in this.

It was fun,but hard work,wouldnt want to do it all the time

cheers Chris
