After setting off at 2300 on Tuesday night we headed north up the A1 up to Lossie - we arrived in the local area at 0630 then grabbed some Breakfast and waited for the first launches
Superb weather both days ! and even a runway change so they finnished the day using the cross runway (very nice)

Hope you like - enjoy

Thanks very much guys for all your comments they mean alot specially after a period of problem after problem with my Canon 40D (RIP) always a pleasure to post some images which i really enjoyed taking them and and more than worth losing a nights sleep!!!!!

I would agree that Lossie is one of the best airfields in terms of viewing and photography out there - i would recommend it to anyone we always do 2 days at Lossie and 2 days at Leuchars show inc the enthusiast day

All taken with the new Canon 50D 300mm 2.8 or 70-200mm IS 2.8

Thanks again - on me "hols" tomorrow but will post a couple of night flying images later.

Another top set Rick. Unusual in that every jet seems to have 2 working afterburners! Bring on those Leuchars shots now.
