Oct 12, 2010 05:29 | #4 fair point, however at that point on the runway the nosewheel is usually on the deck on landing, I guess the nose may have been deliberately held up for the benefit of airshow punters Most Canons currently - 1D(Mks 2&3&4), 7D gripped 50D gripped x2, 40Dgripped x2, 30Dgripped, 20D gripped, 350 gripped, 300. with L lenses

Oct 15, 2010 00:54 | #5 The vulcan uses the vast wing to slow down, either that or they use the drag chute, which was not deployed Martin | GearList | Website: My photography

But your right, they do just go along and use the area to slow down, Looks smart when doing so. | 1DII | 7D | 60D | 6D | 100 2.8 | 50mm 1.4 | 11-16 2.8 | 24-105 4 | 70-300 IS USM |

I remember back in 83 at Goose, 9 Sqn came out on det, brought 8 with them, and left with only 6 due to a mid-air. Aviation Law - If your wings are travelling faster than your fuselage, it better be a helicopter.
