Looks cool in that blue paint scheme. Havent seen it yet, even tho I have it! I had the same idea with the U2, but I just couldnt get the shot I liked. Good luck!

My specs...

Thanks for your comments. Took me awhile to get one that I liked. I was up around 70,000 ft to get above the cirrus clouds. Stalled the aircraft twice. It don't want to fly up there to great. Grin

Check out this pick.

Stall! Stall!! Stall!! Grin

For some reason I'm really liking that cirrus skyskape so far down below... Cool shot. Good luck in the comp!

That stall shot looks really cool! Get into a bit of a spin?

I too had problems getting it up to 70k.

I wish.

I've been trying just about every month for almost two years. Never made the finals yet, but I keep hanging in there. You never know.
