Oh I think I forgot to post pictures from the motorized paraglider team "The Flying Dragons" that was participating at Flygfesten, Dala-Järna. It was definitely something I've never seen before Spectacular colors, I don't know if the rainbow/pride-effect was intentional

Hi Roo.
Very nice shot of the Hudson, but loving the shots with the pyrotechnics, especially the Hercules, amazing how the flares light the plane!

Cheers, Graham.

Thanks Graham. The Hercules was one I was very happy to get right this time. It is cool how the flares do light the plane but that also makes it difficult as it's then too easy to blow out the plane completely.
