Dear Daryl, It is indeed an excellent photo!!!!! How did you manage to click it. I would like know to if that No.1 engine on the port side had really touched the runway??Since I also work for an airlines and would like to pursue "Photography" as a hobby can you tell me which camera you are using and which all types of lenses you are using for your shooting ( I have a Nikon FM10 camera with 35-70mm bayonet type zoom,will that suffice??). Thnx,"mvbhaktha@vsnl.net"

Thanks for that. The engine did touch the the ground as you can see the fire in the next shot. As for the camera its nothing special just a EOS something at the time and a EOS 50 now. If your going to start now try the new EOS300 digital. For a lens you should have a 75-300mm as that covers most airports.
