Thanks, Jack. I was on the ground along the taxiway where the planes were making very close passes. Most made several flyby's, at varying speeds and altitude. This was probably what they call a "photo pass", where the plane is very low and slow. I was shooting my EPL-2 in sequence mode, trying my best to follow through a viewfinder that momentarily blacks out for a second or so (Darned electronic viewfinders!). I got three good shots, but this one against the darkened sky was a keeper for sure. I managed to shoot over 150 shots of which a couple of dozen are very good to excellent. It is a yearly event at the nearby Titusville Executive Airport, sponsored by the Tico Warbird Museum. I try to attend each year and they always put on a good show. Lots of aircraft from WWI up to current technology. They also had a B2 Stealth bomber made several flyby's. Very impressive aircraft and it photographs more like a "UFO" than a frontline bomber of today. :-)
