For the pilots out there... some from a few years ago after taking off from Vancouver YVR on an Air Canada 787 seated at the 'back of the bus' IIRC. Love the large windows on that plane!
Nice shots! GR III (& now GR IIIx) is my go-to plane cam, but I should dabble with M sometime.
M10-P + Summarit 35/2.4

Thanks! Yes, I think the M can make a good flight cam. 
My last pre-covid trip to Germany included visits with relatives. A cousin is an ex-Luftwaffe pilot and keeps up his flight skills as a member of a flying club based out of a decommissioned Luftwaffe airfield. He invited me for a flight in the club's Piaggio P.149D trainer. I used the M240 with 28 Lux for some flight shots and my phone for video, etc. But with the various controls, 5-point harness, cramped quarters and bumpy flight, I didn't end up switching lenses.
But I did get to fly the plane for a while!
It was in February and the weather was not ideal with an approaching front accompanied by fairly strong winds. It resulted in a bumpy ride that was somewhat at the limit of my comfort zone. Interestingly I found I could handle the bumps better when not flying the plane.
The last flight shot is the Hochzoll suburb of Augsburg, in case anyone is wondering.
M240, 28 Lux, 50 Lux ASPH (second to last), VM35/1.7 (last)

Minus 9 degrees F wind chill here in Maine today . Basically stuck inside, fortunately Frosty the Ice Man decorated the windows.
