URGENT NEWS!!! Hello, by now everyone knows the budget crisis for airshows. If they go into action, this will mean cancellation of ALL military support for airshows after April 1 AND less crowd attendance. Military support is THE KEY to Airshows! This petition I am giving will put an end to it and I need EVERYONE to sign it EVEN if it includes signing up! It is only a few seconds to sign and is worth ALL the time! This petition also counts for the Thunderbirds and F-22 Demo. PLEASE SHARE and spread the word to EVERYONE you know! This CANNOT happen and we need ALL the support! This means telling everyone you know, sharing on Facebook, and email blasts! We need to do WHATEVER it takes to end this situation! Heres the link:
petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/please-save-navy-flight...

Please sign and respond back to me when you have contacted as much people as possible. Again, this CANNOT HAPPEN!!!!
Thank you for supporting this petition and it WILL make a difference on this situation!

Just a shame off the big text running through the shots. They're great, no doubt, stunning yes..... but the text through it completly ruins them for me.

But that's just my opinion .... which isn't worth much.

Hey ST2,

Air-air shots are great and would love to see them in this group if you can clearly see two aircraft or more in the air.

If it is just one clear aircraft in the pic, with the photographer in the camera ship, then, unfortunately, it can't go into the group.

Ideally, more than one aircraft needs to be in the shot, not necessarily taken whilst in formation though.

Perhaps we ought to set up an air-air group, as your shots are simply stunning :-)

Hope this helps, and please don't feel despondent if your shots are rejected, its just purely because they don't meet the rules of this particular group.

Cheers,

Tim

Airwolfhound/Tom,

I've tried to upload some a2a shots to this forum over the last few weeks and seemingly had them rejected. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

I had to do that to all my groups aswell, saves a lot of browsing.... but it is more work, on the other hand, you can filter out all the bad ones so it all evens out :-)

I'll change the rules so that we moderate before they hit the group, probably best for a while.
