Very good. With a little bit of work you can get a bit closer though...

The one I put up was taken (I believe) by an engineer in the back seat...

TBH thought the ones you've all taken leave me wanting to sell my camera - I'm never going to get close to the composition and sheer atmosphere invoked by them.
Absolutely wonderful.

(And that's from someone who has no interest in aeroplanes or airshows whatsoever.)

Some stunning pics that would make it into the calendar if Lotus made airplanes !!

( Sure I read that Colin Chapman was keen to start making planes at one point so guess it could have been)
