[QUOTE="Nikonitus, post: 83148, member: 10962"] You know, that warbird keeps surprising me. It's obviously still around and it flies over every now and then. The sound of two Rolls Royce Merlin v-12's is unmistakable, especially when it comes straight at ya, full revs. Nothing quite like it... It just flew over me a few minutes back and then did a big circle in the sky then took off for parts unkown. I ran into my room and got the D600 out and although I managed just the one distant shot, tail on, I once again had the wrong lens on, the 24-120mm. It disappeared into the horizon and I changed the lens to the 70-300mm. I am going to sit outside ready for it, should it come back,, then hopefully...!!! The other day it flew off in the same direction but never came back, at least not that same day. If it does today, I'll be ready. I'd head out to the airstrip but I have to be at home for the next few hours, shame but necessary... [/QUOTE]
