Lovely pictures, Ralph; a little heavy on the exposure editing in my opinion though; they look almost like illustrations.

That Tiger, low down (third to last photo) looks like it has one hell of a drift angle

I like your unconventional processing Ralph, nice variation from the norm. It wouldn't be art if everyone liked the same things! :-) I successfully reminded myself that I need to practice to take decent photos. But I had a great day, as I went up in the Moth Minor! The cockpit was slightly uncomfortable for me, mainly due to having to slouch a bit to get the helmet (with listening tubes attached, so it could only be so high) on - but nothing that was a problem for the short flight.

NSClassic13_1161fl by errolgc, on Flickr Ralph was kind enough to share photos of me he took, thanks again Ralph!

Great photos guys. That Moth Minor is a nice looking aircraft. Stick a canopy on it and its almost a Chipmunk!

The Moth Minor Coupe is a very stylish looking aeroplane.

Yep, doesn't look like a chippy though, maybe a Miles?

A bit of hastily thrown together video from the day (only just over a month late posting it).
Thankfully I now have a tripod so next time the hand held wobbles wont be as bad.
An excellent day topped off by a great - albeit short thanks to discovering the brake cable had sheared just after takeoff - flight in the Nanchang.

Love the Tiggie in the bare metal/silver dope scheme, something you don't see all that often.
