Default Chasing the head on jet shot

No model flying last week instead a few days in the Welsh mountians then a private photo shoot too the opposite side of the country to shoot some P51 Mustangs and lots of fires at work so busy busy fun week, anyway an interesting few days out last week in good company, decided to try for the head on shots using both the 1.4 and 1.7 convertor on 300mm lens, sadly the Eagles break for the turn too soon to really nail the shot im after.

Hi Laurie,
Incredible shots. Just wondering if you are using high speed motor drive, and culling the best focused pics? What format? Time priority, or Auto or Aperture priority?

That F-15 shot is great.

Here is a picture that Unclejoe shot of my UltraLightning that is in the spirit of this thread.
