Finally caught the camouflage single-seat scooter yesterday.  Been waiting since October for another shot at this (missed it back then due to a family obligation).

The Greek God "Linus" comes from the Greek name Λινος (Linos) meaning "leg."
In Greek legend, he was the son of the God Apollo who was accidentally killed when he stepped over the white line.

No problem Matt.  Saw it enter the pattern and wanted to make sure you were ready.

And for a backlit morning shot, that came out remarkably well.

Thanks, I had to play around with it a bit during editing (conditions weren't the best), but, like I said, "I am pleased with my first A-4 Skyhawk photo!"

Awesome shot Joe.  Really shows how much airplane there is forward and aft of the landing gear.

You don't concentrate on risks. You concentrate on results. No risk is too great to prevent the necessary job from getting done.
