LOL. My bad juxtaposition of sentences I'm afraid. That first paragraph should read: Hot air balloon, that's more my cup of tea. For filming big fires, major road accidents etc we use a Squirrel (helicopter) which means sitting in the cold with the door off. I don't mind that but I avoid anything else (like travelling in the load bays of Hercules C-130s with virtually no windows) where I can. Nice pics BTW Anders :-) Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=====| www.macads.co.uk/snaps _____________________________ Free UK Mac Ads www.macads.co.uk
