The bright yellow contrasts nicely with the blue sky. From memory, when in R.A.A.F. service, we called 'em 'Plastic Parrots' over on this side of the ditch. Were you inverted for #7?

A sweet subject, stunning location, and lovely execution. A great set Andy, thanks for posting!

Bootiful shots, what a stunning backdrop too
Is it just me, or do the black flaps make the shot from above look like the aircraft have landed on top of a very small toy mountain?
