An opportunistic scene, having never envisioned this one before.

G-PEGI PA-34, Scone by wwshack, on FlickrA Culter based R22 was doing an intensive period of night flying... it is at time like this that one realises just how lucky one has to get access so close and just how inherently dangerous night photography can be.

G-BSFE PA-38, Scone by wwshack, on FlickrTotally opportunistic set of two photos as the PA-38 taxies out at the start of the night-flying. I rather like the abstract nature of these shots.
