Portuguese national aerobatic team pilot Santiago Sampietro goes vertical after a low pass right next to me... both of Santiago's Extras have fantastic paintjobs, with a dragon painted all around (also check EC-KJX)!

Resting after another day of challenging flights at Hot Blade 2012 Exercise... a few hours earlier, I had the fantastic opportunity of flying in an insertion/extraction mission with four of these Austrian Bells, with some air-to-air shots in the mix. Thanks a lot guys, you rock!!

The amazing lines of the Blackjack at the 100th Anniversary Airshow of the Russian Air Force... those four Kuznetsov NK-321 engines sure produce a fantastic sound when they fly overhead!

Reaching the outer marker for runway 03 approach, after sunset, we're going to start a left turn to the city of Lisbon. In the middle you can see the Tagus River, that reaches the Atlantic Ocean behind us... the perfect way to end a trip to Moscow, after attending the 100th Anniversary Airshow of the Russian Air Force!

Flying at Montesinho Natural Park (Bragança) during a four day cross-country photo trip, we reach the Spanish border, outlined by the windmills... a truly fantastic sight! Until now, it's been the only time that i've flown in a snowy environment.
