Nice pictures - anyone want a job
Really enjoyed looking at this thread - and we may be recruiting a full time aerial photographer soon - applications from all the above would be seriously considered!
Keep it up.

Here's a few from my collection. All taken in the days before I had a digital camera, so the quality may not be too good as I've had to scan the photos in.
Alderney - must try and get back there this year, haven't been for ages now

Snow, and show showers over the Brecon Beacons
![](http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/brookieswebsite/images/flying_pics/Brecon_Beacons.jpg)
The Belle Tout lighthouse on the cliffs near Beachy Head
![](http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/brookieswebsite/images/flying_pics/BelleTout.jpg)
OK a quick quiz - can you identify this airfield (Hint it was apparently the RAF's smallest airfield in WWII)
![](http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/brookieswebsite/images/flying_pics/Whereisthis.jpg)
And finally, this one's too good not to include, but it comes with a health warning: Don't try this at home folks

On final for runway 21 Tucson International (and yes, slightly off the centreline). If you look carefully you can see rows for ANG F-16's just to the right of the runway. It was 118 degrees F on the ground that day!
