I benefit from being a loadmaster on the mighty CH47. So when i can get shots like this in remote Scotland, as a keen photographer it makes me incredibly happy! However, i'm amateur and keen to learn so all CC is gladly accepted!

Nice work. I think I like the sunset shot.

I love both shots. Great light on the sunset shot, but I do think it would have been better to have more of the aircraft in the frame. To the untrained eye, they would look at the silhouette and be really confused to what it is.

Wonderful images. The CH47 is a workhorse. Both images are fine, I realy like the first, great detail, so clear. Thanks for posting these.
