Any of our U.K. friends went to RIAT this weekend?? I am looking at the Sanicole Show in Belgium in Sept. The main flying attractions for ME will be the F-4 Phantom, F-86 Sabre, Lancaster, and potentially a Saab Viggen. Flying to Europe for us on the East Coast isn't that different from flying to the West Coast. Will see...
I'm not from the UK but I was there.
Came home last night around midnight.
First try with the new set R5II and the 200-800
No comment's on the body, but the 200-800 is not my cup of tea that could be operator error.
It doesn't like vapour and clouds it keeps hunting for focus.
If the weather is sunny then there are little problems but enough of that.
Here's a sample have to get some share's in some SSD manufacturer
Have 674GB of photo's not all are keepers though.
Eurofighter C.16 Tifón ( Typhoon )
I'm not at Sanicole , as I am on Holiday at that time but the lineup looks good.
ps they pushed up the speed limit at some show's to 0.9 mach if i'm correct.

Nice vapor, J-A! The Eurofighter Typhoon is a cool looking jet. I saw a few last year at the NATO Tiger Meet in Germany. I watched last year's the F-15QA performance at RIAT several times, unbelievable! As for the Sanicole show, I think the chance of me going is 50/50 right now. On the same weekend there will be a show at Andrews AFB, 30 minutes from where I live, Thunderbirds, F-35A, F-18 Super Hornet and more... But I want to see F-4 Phantoms and the Gripon at Sanicole, they may still have more performers, even the Saab Viggen.
Great work Jan Arie! Sorry you aren't happy with the RF 200-800, you shouldn't have any problem getting your money back out of it if you decided to sell it.
Not going to sell it, don't have budget to get a better lens maybe the newly expected 200-500 or 500 in F 5.6 if Im correct.
So I have to row with what i have got no worries there's always rental.
Here's one in better weather 2 Dutch Boeing CH-47F Chinook's arrive for the static.
The nice thing about the R5II is that you see what happens if you use the exposure wheel if you have the time.. to see what's the result is going to be.

I used to dislike drones because I wasn't on board, hands on, days like this make me thankful for the drone assignments where I don't have to get the tar beat out of me. .............
