You have got it in one there.
The Tiger isa great aircraft that can be overlooked and I intend to photograph as many as I can in the future.
There are three different ones on my site now and I soon have another five to go on there and will be photographing another tomorrow so that will be 9 so making some progress.
Am working on another couple of aircraft types to do the same with but need to wathc the bank balance a bit.Cheers Gavin:

yup my grandfather used to "unoffically" fly them in the islands on met recons during the war. he used to tell storys of pilots flying them backwards when the wind got strong enough, just had to make sure then wind wasn't going to die on youIn the ongoing battle between objects made of aluminum going hundreds of miles per hour and the ground going zero miles per hour, the ground has yet to lose.
