Fantastic set. Numbers 21 and 24 for me, although i would be chuffed as nuts if any of them were mine. Thanks for posting

Just a bit good these. :clap: Fancy Orion is a nice catch but the Wisconsin Guard (20) is a corker for me.

Wonderful set of photos. At a push I'd say 20 was my favourite but it's really difficult to choose.

The Orion was a very welcome bonus for a perfect day. It was going around doing touch and go's for a while - I think it did around 10 rounds. I didn't complain at all.

I was the same day I was there, so it must be the same one.

Lovely set of images, but the P-3 is a real beauty very reminiscent of the old VXN-8 colour scheme... :smile:

Nice images. Some are a little bit soft (for example 20 & 22). But I think it's from cropping
