Went to my sons flying lesson this morning and did a little spotting while I was there, for some reason it was very busy for a Sunday morning, then I remembered that the U.S Open starts here tomorrow. Maybe thats why its so busy. Thought I would posts a few shots that you guys might enjoy.

That Citation X is a flying contratiction. Something between butt-ugly and awesomly sexy. Undecided

Nice snaps and kudos to your son.

Well, where are the pictures, don't tell me you didn't take pictures during your Discovery flight. I've also been waiting for your shots from KPIT.  Looks like I'll be going to Wings over Pittsburgh on Saturday.

The fact that its the fastest general aviation airplane at .92 Mach does it for me.  Sweet photo!

Cover up the front half of that Citation X and it looks great. Cheesy

Thanks Cory, I didn't even realize it was my Anniversary.  I can't wait to go on Saturday, watch for the posts, you know these guys from across the water have been putting up some great shots the last few weeks, they are going to be a tough act to follow, but I'll do my best. Mark

If you're flying it, you can't have to complain about its looks anyways. Grin

I'd be interested to know what the shutter speed was for the picture of your son going by in the Cessna. My S3 has a top speed of 1/3200 seconds. Yours must be fast as well, because that prop seems to be stationary...

I just went back in the camera and looked up the information for you, the shutter speed was 1/2000 and aperture was 6.3.  hope that helps you and answers your question. Mark    Smiley
