Yeah Baby, they haul ass! Hawker Sea Fury is a pretty darn cool Korean War vet. The paint scheme of the Dreadnought just begs to be photographed.

My personal challenge continued with this speedster, showing off the romance of flight with the bat out of hell profile. During the Sept races the planes fly a pretty tight track around the course, not so during PRS so each time they come around the course they are a different distance from you. This gives you different opportunities to make all sorts of different images.

With clouds in the background, romance and speed is much easier to capture. Throw in a really low pass along the ridgeline at Pylon#4 and you’re golden!
