These two Canadian fighter jets were circling overhead before heading to the Labor Day classic CFL football game for a fly over.
I believe they are CF-18's

A nice topside pass from the Picasso Tiger of the Czech Air Force. Even if it is not my favourite Tiger paint of all time (british sarcastic understatement alert), I still like the colours.

Yesterday, we watched the new Thunderbirds documentary on Netflix. It highlighted the professionalism of the pilots, the science behind each maneuver, and the dangers involved. I’m looking forward to seeing them again in the next couple of years. This photo was taken during their visit to Canada in 2022.
First at QIAS, now in Rochester. I will see this jet sometime again next month at the Airshow London. Hoping for some vapor.

There’s a story behind this one so I decided to put it up.
For almost 4 years now old Magoo has been trying to capture one of the red kite birds that leisurely circle over our house on a regular basis and he’s failed miserably! Hundreds and hundreds of attempts and not a single one deserving of putting up. Four years. Sigh. Chuckle.
These fighter jets on the other hand, occasionally pass over and nothing about them is leisurely, you hear them coming at a terrific rate of knots , they are on you with a roar and then whoosh - gone. I’ve never had a camera with me when they do - or not with the right lens anyhow. But on this day I did have and was in a good place in the garden.
I heard it coming, no time to lift my 20x magnifier, no time to think or check aperture or exposure, I just turned towards the noise and then it was on me, unseen but without thinking I guessed at height and direction and spun around to get ahead of it, paused an instant and then hit the shutter button - one shot. No time to see if I had been unbelievably lucky for there was another one coming. I quickly turned towards it, made the same guess, spun ahead, paused and fired! Again, one shot.
I lifted up my 20x magnifier to take a look and see what if anything I had - the shots were taken so I knew I had clouds but I was beyond flabbergasted to discover I had caught the very fast moving jet not once, but twice. Honestly, I stood there stunned, it seemed….insane. It still does. Of course I didn’t know if they were sharp or blurred I can never tell even with the 20x but as you can see it was sharp, they both were.
Two shots, two hits on the lightening fast jet I think earns Magoo the title of ‘Topgun’ on this occasion at least, whilst my attempts at the slow moving kites earn me an empty water pistol award. Hopefully, I’ll be successful one day but until then these two photos give me cause for optimism and still raise a bemused and amazed smile and quite a bit of head scratching:^)
