I've got a Nikon D200 with the 18-200mm lense. It's a little short for most of the flyby shots, but you can't beat carrying just one versatile lense. Besides, it's a big step up for me since it was just over a year ago that I was still using a Pentax point and shoot with a 140mm zoom lense.

I finally went through my photos and I posted a few on Webshots. Here are some I posted a bit earlier and a few more added.

And what the Heck is this? Does this have a Military name as well as a civilian name? Looks like something out of Air America, which is not far from the truth as the Black Daggers used it as their jump plane.

There are some more on my Webshots page.

Thanks

The US Military calls them UV-20 Chiricahua.

What??

What did those planes do to the US Army to deserve such an "interesting" name...

Just as I figured, another reference to a group of Native Americans that the Army did battle with.
