I heard there is a warbird meet, can we got and shoot? Turbine Jet Meet also? Very nice picture, thanks for sharing.

How do you make the cam focus fast enough to get these shots? I'm using a Minolta A1, but there's no way it could focus so fast on a moving object like these!

Actually I didn't do anything to the cam. I used a Nikon 200 + 18~200mm VR lens set on A-mode at f/5.6, WB=Auto and blast at anything that flew by...with quick panning also

If the landing gear was retracted, then this would look like a perfect straffing run. Blazing Oerlikons is what I can imagine... ) BTW, how much do one of these babies set you back by? Always wanted one - never got around to it.
