Wow, that is superb! What a beautiful background you had, too! Pilots like clear sky, photographers like clouds. :-) At least that's how I feel when I'm wearing those hats! :-)

A pilot's eye immediately goes to that puddle under the rear of the engine. Is it water?

I noticed that as well. Looks like its around the tire. Leaky brake line?

Beautiful photo. I love it.
