How close is too close? ...

Like flak being so thick you could walk on it?

(but what the heck a piper is doing standing there in shot is probably more of puzzle )

Too close? ...

This was pretty close flying with the Maj and Jive at OSH a few years back. I was baggage and fuel monitor...

This Spitfire tucked in nice and close a few weeks back.

Would that be Martin Phillip's Spitfire Peter?

Yes indeed. RR232 on its first air to air sortie.

I was the guest of Richard Paver on this photo-shoot. His images are in and on the cover of the June Issue of Aeroplane.

How about C-130 behind C-130 ....... (but what the heck a piper is doing standing there in shot is probably more of puzzle )

That's close but hardly dangerously so. I've been in various rotary winged stuff and it seemed like a rotor was going to come in through the gap in the ramp, then I see photos from the side (or on final to the assault phase) and realize we're at least one and a half the distance of the entire rotor arc apart.

Thanks Peter, she looks good. I'll have to get Aeroplane now and I've just cancelled my subscription last month.

I've had a Caribou put his nose up so close under the tail of my Caribou that I could have slid off the ramp and stood on the nose in front of the windscreen.
Amazing to see....wish I had a picture....

My buddy Glenn got up close with Fat Albert...
