Rotors, Props and a few Jets-Bwlch Top 14th May

Post by Aquila »

A day spent in the excellent company of Gareth, John H and later on Meirion. Movements started and finished with Eagles, although the harsh light on the early morning ones rendered most of these shots useless. Highlight of the day was the CV22 Osprey that gave us two lovely passes at approx. 6.30pm and then to close the show F15's in some rather nice light. On with the shots...

The Osprey shots are wicked. It's good to see that they're beginning to appear in the Loop. I can't wait to get back up there.

Very nice work, the Osprey shots are splendid and can only echo what has been said previously.

I bet seeing the Osprey through the loop pretty much tops most things!! Looks bloody stunning!
