These two jets were so close that sunlight shining on the underside of Race 61's starboard wing and fuselage was reflected on to the port side fuselage of Race 84, creating a brightly illuminated section that is plainly visible in this photo.

Yo, Cliff >>> Thanx for the compli. And I've got dozens (I am not kidding -- several dozen) superb photos to clog up your e/m. For the past 2+ months, I have been travelling all around fulfilling invites and requests. I am using four cameras, and I am buried in photos. Military, commercial, classics, VIP, etc., etc. I have one more photo request to fill at an upcoming event and then I will have 18 days free to get some of them to you, Hundo, Alien, Dave, Viv, Greg, and Uwe. Hundo >>> Gotta tell ya, the Aussies are fantastic! Super friendly and welcoming. (And their brewski is SUPERB!!) These folks know their planes --- AND their beer! They are Triple Crown .... great folks, great planes, and great beer. (Grin). There was a Swiss group here too. Same thing for them: very welcoming and easy-going.

Great shot, Gary! It sounds like you've been having too much fun! Try to take it a little easier, eh! Seriously, I love your pics, and I'm always looking forward to the next one!
C.W. Reed
I agree with Greg! Never a bad pic!
Scott Gusakov
Great shot Gary! I will try to set you up with more material like this in September! I'm the pilot of Race 84.
