    Did you film that, Lou?

    Sort of reminds one of "High Flight": "Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth....."

    Yeah, I took it. Sadly, the autofocus had trouble on some of the best shots, so I couldn't use them. Even some of the ones in the video are out of focus. That said, I'm still pretty happy with it. More to come....

    Yeah, 20 or 30x zoom. Both of us were cargo flights. I tried reaching the crew on air to air, but they wouldn't respond. I was going to send them the video. Oh well...

    It would sure be nice to see this contrail video but I get a popup telling me that Flash Is Out Of Date. Yeah, it usually is once a week but I find no solution to bring it up to date now.
