Re: The Last Chance

It's working for me now, strange, first just the sound then the end last few seconds.
Second time I got it all, nice one gpick. Especially with a phone.

I zoomed in as close as I could to get them both in the same shot, I could have got a lot closer with only one in frame but the event called for them both.
They were gone too quickly to try them individually.
My sister rang me at 14.53 as they were passing over Morecambe and they appeared over Blackburn ten minutes later.
We had made arrangements earlier that she would ring as they passed so I could leave the comfort of my car in time to take the photos.
Well worth seeing together, a unique experience.
Just a side remark, the last time I flew in a plane was 1960. It was a Beverley with no back doors, they took them off because we couldn't open them in flight and we wanted to chuck things out. I have a few photos taken at Blackbushe with and without the cargo doors.
Toilet was an Elson pan behind a ground sheet, or stand at back and spray the crops.
Sorry, I strayed away from the thread.
