Brilliant set Jonny - what's all that about in picture 13 ?

Good Evening Colin and Vierdryinn...Firstly thanks for the nice comments. Colin I try and think sometimes if the aircraft might be right, looking from the grass up.It works with lovely clouds
blue skys and colourful shapes and it looks more active somehow, better word than dynamic

Hi Vierdryinn, the shot shows the Cessna 172 of Simon Moores, who runs Airads. This time he was asked to tow a banner over a pub in Lowestoft,with the bloke asking a girl to marry him
timed at going over at 5pm,he would then take her outside to see the banner. As Colin mentioned the aircraft is seen at Beccles picking up the main line that is towed behind the plane.
I couldn't manage to fit the plane and banner in all in one go except from a distance..Nice to hear from you both anyway..cheers... pps..The same chap towed the banner over the Man.U ground urging the sacking of the then manager,was it Moyes?

Thanks for the explanation Jonny - never seen that done before ( I mean picking up the banner ) I wonder if Rashida said Yes ?

A good set all round, I particularly like the 3/4 head on shot of the C152 landing with the trees behind. Interesting stuff about the banner towing. I tow gliders regularly and just assumed the plane took off with the banner on the ground rather than picking it up in flight. Is this because the runway is short or it standard for banner towing?

[jonny7]

Good Morning foxfour...Thank-you for the interest The C152 was taken on finals on a left hand circuit and I purposefully waited for one to turn late and took a compressed shot, trying to make it look as if it had come through the gap in the trees.
The banner towing tactic is also something I saw for the first time. So can not say for certain if this is the preferred method or not. He needed to clear some trees, so maybe !this was the best way, due to the length of the cable and banner..

Thats how he did it when I saw him at Rochester
