Nice captures of the run - focus is bang on.
Paul.
Thank you Paul, they are very hard to get in focus as there not to far away and dart all over the place with a large lens it’s awkward

The cameras are just getting better on phones aren't they ...and with associated apps they can be very good resolution wise for the printed version now ... Good stuff. Monkey .... thanks for showing our members and guests what you can do with iPhones now ...I. have the 11 Max PRO and am very pleased with it as a go to camera if I am caught without my Fuji ...
Thank you. I had my DSLR with me as was at RAF Lakenheath but didn't really fancy swapping out the lens. Mobiles have made massive leaps in IQ and using them like this is a good substitute. They do have major limitations tcompared to a DSLR or mirrorless camera but just for point and shoot they are good

It was a great place to capture images of pilots in jets practicing their skills and manoeuvres as you said …. There aren’t many places where you can get a view of an aircraft like this… thanks for posting these well crafted captures Monkey… good to see you back too !
Thanks Clicker. there are quite a few places to view them low level there are 6 popular spots on the Mach Loop and 2 or 3 more on A5 at Ogwen valley then there is the Lake District with at 5 spots not including the towns and Scotland has quite a few. The Kyle of Lochalsh around Eileen Donan castle and the Skye bridge. Anywhere along the great glen where they travel southwest to Spleen then sharp left to Kingussie and over Insh Marshes rspb site onto either Aviemore or Loch Morlich, We dont see the Tornado now as that was retired before Covid hit and RAF frontliners dont use the Loop (long story) now but are seen daily elsewhere

I don't see why not. I usually shoot the night sky with as wide a lens as possible - which in my case is the wide end of an 18-55 on a Canon 60D. That's equivalent to around 28mm on full frame. Your lens would be equivalent to my 24mm F2.8. I've never used that for the night sky but the wider aperture might give it an advantage in terms of collecting light.
Thank you Hatter
