That one's going to a publication and I won't post over there until it's run its course.
Understandable... I'm doing the same thing with a few shots.  ;D

Yup, that S-2 drop was insanely low... lower than I've ever seen anywhere. What do you expect from an ex-Tomcat bubba...  ;D

Great shots of that Jim. Nice capture. Did you make sure Andre over at FC saw that?

Thanks a million Brian. The only extra lighting I used was my flash (hand held). At 20 sec exposure, you can pick out the constellations in the sky behind the Yak shot as it was short enough not to cause any star trails of note.  :)

This is a neat one. Not only is it an Albatross, but there's a Beech 18 above the plane's starboard engomne and a lady photog in the nose.  :D
