Hi all :D

  Attila thanks for your remarks, your pics are very nice as well. The lense that I used was a Sigma 50-500mm on all flight and most static shots. The B-17 on the runway was taken with 18-55mm Canon.
All the best

Clemens 8)

Woo Hoo, watched Air Force One arriving on Rwy 23 at YYZ this morning (10:20am).  What a beauty and quite a thrill to see!

Saw something that identified itself as a C17, but it was totally the wrong colour and it seemed a little on the small side...

Attila ... too funny!   :lol:

Cody ... cool!   8)   I like your ship photos as well.  I used to live just up the street from Lock 3 and was at the Welland Canal all the time.  :D

Planning to be at YYZ on Thursday and Friday this week.
