Interesting Bird. I haven't seen registration marks like those in many years. Used to be very prevalent in old test flight footage from places like Edwards AFB.

Nice set Peter.

Thanks FRank. Still not really stunning. For some reason when ever I manage to catch this flying outside work it's alway overcast.
This is probably one of our oldest birds but also probably the least hours.

Had a play with the first shot. Decided colours were not quite right and straightened the plane even though from my angle it was level

Nice set. Grey sky not usually 1st choice but you got really good detail underneath.
