Re: AFM - UK Defence Select Committee Report Article

Have to agree with OP that the AFM articles make very sad reading for us in the UK, but the woes of the US with their F35 availability rates shows it's not just a UK issue. With USAF retiring their E3s before they have alternatives in place adds to this line of thought.

Lovely light for two classic airframes. You certainly stacked up the miles to do so.

Re: Lakenheath 12/09/2022

In general a really good set. If I may offer some constructive feedback; 1. Go easy with lightning of the shadows. In a few of your shots, it looks like you've pushed it too far, and it doesn't look natural. 2. Watch out for your backgrounds, especially masts as in you F35 shot with the mast coming...
