Here is a shot from the Old Warden show on 6th June 2010. The Westland Lysander up close and personal. WDYT?

Not sure what WDYT means, but it's a nice photo of a very rare bird - well done!

What Do You Think? Google is your friend. I had to look it up too.
Nice picture of a very interesting plane.

Nice shot especially since you're shooting a picture of a dark subject ( colorwise). The Lysander is a deceivingly large single engine aircraft! Nice airy cockpit!

Apologies for the abbreviation :) Dedsen found the correct meaning.

Thanks for the comments all. It is a tricky colour to shoot, Brian. Along with Chinooks and the Lancaster!

Interesting capture. I like the framing of it as well.

Love this shot. I've got a thing for Lysanders as i've been helping my father make a RC version for the last year. Very interesting aircraft, not many of them flying now.
