I was fortunate enough to get the opportunity to photograph a beautifully restored P-51 Mustang, known as Nervous Energy V, at a small gathering for friends and family of the new owner. Also on hand was a great looking T-28 Trojan in US Navy markings. Links below. (Updated June 17, 2004) P-51 Mustang "Nervous Energy V"

Update June 7, 2004. After a long vacation, I am back updating the web site. One of the stops on the trip was the Planes of Fame Airshow in Chino, CA. I have uploaded two pages of preview images with plenty more to follow. AS well, we were able to visit the control tower at LAX. I had the opportunity to shoot some aircraft from up on the tower. The links to the Planes of Fame Airshow and the LAX visit are below:

Upcoming updates to the site (from this vacation) will include a tower vist at LAX in Los Angeles and a visit to the museum at March ARB in California. Stay tuned for updates. Other anticipated shows this year include Moose Jaw, Abbotsford and the Gathering of Warbirds in Olympia, WA. Also a full update of images from last year's Miramar show is upcoming.

Below is a set of images taken of a helicopter (AS 350) rescue of an injured hiker on Mount Seymour in North Vancouver, BC on September 20, 2003. I just happened to be at the right place at the right time, camera in hand. The injuries to the hiker were not serious. He claimed to have a broken foot but was making his way down the mountain under his own power before being picked up. Beautiful setting for aviation photography.

Gathering of Warbirds image galleries now online with 184 new images (July 10, 2003).

I have added new images to the 747/A340/A330 pages and uploaded a new gallery of the 727-200 (July 1, 2003) Commercial Aviation section.

This CF-18 Hornet visited Abbotsford Airport (CYXX) on May 31, 2003. The pilot (from 441 Squadron flying a 410 jet) gave us the "wing-wag" on a flyby before heading back to 4 Wing Cold Lake.

A new visitor (a least a new livery) to YVR this spring is this Thomas Cook Airlines A330-200. This same aircraft visited YVR last summer in the green, white and blue of JMC Air. More can be seen in my Commercial Aviation section. (pics taken May 10, 2003 - new to site May 26, 2003)

Commercial Aviation section updated with new images taken May 10, 2003 at Vancouver International Airport. So far only the 747, A340 and A330 links are active (A330/A340 updated).

Cuban leader Fidel Castro made a brief stopover at Vancouver International Airport on March 4, 2003 aboard this Il-62. Truly a rare site at YVR.
