Well Paul, you are now in my territory, I work with military aircraft for my job. This aircraft is very similar to our Hawk Trainer and you, my friend have captured them so well. I have to say that the second one is first class and would look well in any aircraft magazine and I have seen a few magazines about aircraft to know that. Excellent work Paul. Thanks for sharing them.

Jake
