Made the annual journey to Cosford, after spending time trying to second guess the weather forecasters. Turns out the best forecast came from the man that sold my train ticket. It was nice with only a drip here and there and a heavy shower just as the Typhoon arrived. I'm pleased to report the M-10 can get wet and survive, but I must admit the shower was not that heavy when I decided to throw caution to the wind and ditch the brollie.
Here are 2 planes I haven't seen before and they came out quite good. Both cropped below 2000px on the long edge, so way in.
1308x981 crop ISO400 300mm f7.1 @ 1/1600---+1.3EV on both. There's actually a better one than this.

1665x1248 crop ISO400 258mm f6.5 1/1000. This one pretty much qualifies for a space on a wall I think.

So when I and the camera had a meeting of the minds it was almost FLAWLESS. When we didn't....well those files are gone. Happy to say I tossed more because of me than because of the camera, a lot more. There were 3 I can think of were all you can see are the blurry blobs of the Typhoons exhaust, and somehow the camera thought it had focus and took the shot. Most were this good and better. I took the 40-150mm lens, but never put it on, the 75-300mm was good enough even in these conditions. A member has the Typhoon image perhaps they will post it so you can see.
