Hi All

I am no photographer but reasonably pleased with my new Camera.

Fuji Finepix S9600

these are the better ones and my first on here i think as they are usually too far away for me.

Regards
Rick

Many thanks to Dave B & Brian from Simshed ? :thumbsup:

Lovely shots, the Gladiator has the canopy - Gauntlets didn't!

Like Mr Kiplings cakes, Fuji do make rather nice cameras. I've had a couple but added a Pentax DSLR to take my old lenses (well that was my excuse to SWMBO). My S602 still does sterling service alongside the DSLR.

A smashing day out and enjoyed the company very much. In fact, I'd have been a little disappointed otherwise but there you go. I have quite a few bits of Spitfire and I know that Rick has the front bit so I'll post the tail and Rick can post the front bit. Think of it as Stereoscopic Photography :lol:

Rick.. your timing was just about perfect for leaving. Not 5mins later, the place started to gridlock ;-) Be Brave and post some of your flying shots matey. I'm sure you must have some that are worthy ;-)

Lovely shots Mr.P. :thumbsup: The Viscount is looking superb... wait.. no.. Superb is the Vanguard. :roll:

Always thought the airocobra looked strange, and the sabre (one of my least favourite looking a/c) looks the business. Anyone know where its based?

I think it's based at Duxford Ben.. at least it used to be. OFMC had it for a while but that's been quite a while :-( :dunno:

Shame I couldn't make it down... the overtime I was owed for 3 months (and was assured would be in this months pay) wasn't.... again. :-(
