Thanks! I'm using a Sony A200 with a minolta 100-300mm lens or my sigma 50-500mm. Here's some more since you all liked the first bunch so much

Good pix. That's all from Willow Grove right?

Pappy and Waltz... you guys have convinced me! I gotta have a 300mm zoom capability lens! Awesome pics. Thanks for posting.

Elmer, you should really go for 400mm for airplane photography... 300mm is just barely suitable and you're always at your maximum zoom, which tends to be soft. (Waltz, I'm eying the "Bigma" for the Nikon... )

If you shoot Canon -- the 100-400 IS is the bee's knees... Nikon... well... there's not much out there that's affordable, other than the Sigma 50-500, which is around $1,000.

LOL, no idea JP -- if you call the airport I'm sure someone there would know.

You looking for a 1:1 Stearman?

Nice shots of the A-10 Waltz. Pretty cool you get to see that stuff so often.

Not me no....But there is a pilot up here who is looking for a Stearman.
I'll let him know..I think that airport is O69 if i remember right.
There is a store called "The Prop Stops Here" there too.

I've not seen the store -- but there is a diner called "two niner diner" that's supposed to be good though........

You are right -- it's 069...

Thanks for the expert advice, Pappy. Now off to convince Mrs. E!
