I took this at our air show this past weekend. I can't believe I got this shot.

Enjoy.

I don't think I suggested "Exposure Program = action program (high-speed program, fast shutter speed) (6)", did I?

Impeccable timing however it looks as if the overall exposure could use some help...

The shot is definitely a good capture.

Hopefully the OP doesn't get upset, however, I took the liberty of editing the image a bit. I tried to correct for proper exposure of the BA's, while running some NR, to help alleviate the noise that reared its tail upon bringing up the shadows. And I also did a slight bit of sharpening. :)

May not be kosher as the OP does NOT have "Editing Ok" enabled...

However, I think the re-edit helps the exposure issue but owing to the fact one ony has the JPEG with which to work, the sharpening has made things pretty crispy.

Thanks James, your edit looks better than what I took. I was just happy that I got the picture.

The Jpeg, was only 73 Kilobytes. :D Had very little data to work with. I do agree, that the sharpening has added a bit of crispness, but it was part of the Noise Reduction in Noiseware Pro.

Your welcome, all I did was enhance, what you captured. I don't think it looks better than what you shot. You did capture a very good image. Glad to hear, your not upset, with me editing your image, since you have, as Jay pointed out, Image Editing Off.

I can, but on my ACD, the jets looked mighty soft. Maybe b/c of the 73 KB file, I'm not sure. I used one of the lowest settings in NP for sharpening. :)
