Hi gang,

Iv'e just joined the site and cool it looks to! I'm currently in Romford, Essex near London, UK but am hopefully moving to Torrance early in the new year to get married. I often stay with my Fiancee in Torrance and will be back there in Dec' for Christmas and the New Year (well, actually Vegas for the New Year! as thats where the mother-in-law lives!). Got to know most of the shooting places at the local airports. Would be cool to maybe meet-up with some of you guys in late Dec' or something though won't have much spare time on my hands but will get in some snapping somewhere for sure.

I'm in ATC at London Biggin Hill Airport and freelance for many mags including Airliner World, Airforces Monthly, Todays Pilot, Aicraft Illustrated, Aviation International News etc. My main love is Biz Aviation, Airlines and Mil'...and Ballooning so allways something going on somewhere. I'm also into Motorsport:NASCAR/Indycar/ALMS/Drifting and all the other things...never got any spare time it seems! I need to get on top of updating my website as well so that will be soon as moving house at present here in the UK. Fave' airports are LAX, Long Beach, OC and Van Nuys but looking forward to doing Red Flag next year and hitting the mil'fields to get shooting some nice stuff.

Look forward to seeing you guys maybe and reading whats on here,

Cheers,

Baz

Nice! Great to have you with us Baz, hopefully we sure can meet in December... looking forward to that.

I normally shoot at my local airport which is Santa Monica (KSMO).
Once again welcome aboard!

Thanks gang, will be good to meet with some local guys at the various places I haunt when I'm there-can't wait to settle down in sunny Torrance at long last...beats the thunderstorms and heavy rain I'm having here at the moment!

Wife and I almost went to London this year.  Maybe next year.  When your in town let us know!

[phantomphan1974]

I think its under general but I have some drifting shots from NOPI and autocross from the XGames.  Xgames no longer allow "professional cameras" in so point and shoot is the only option.

[snapperbaz]

I arrive on the 22nd of Dec and will have a few days spare depending when my fiance is working or not, so once I know when I'll be free I'll let you guys know but it might be at real short notice...we'll see what happens. Maybe I can give you my US' cellphone number nearer the time,

Thanks all,

Baz

Welcome aboard Snapperbaz! 

[snapperbaz]

ok Boy's...I'll post some pics after the weekend as I'm moving house at the moment which has been a complete nightmare on my own...so many plane mags have had to be thrown (so sad!) and I can't believe how many hundreds of 35mm slide boxes I have found in my attic...geez!! Maybe if I get a rest period between now and then I'll post some...I'll send a mixture and hopefully in the right place as well.

Talk soon gang,

Baz
