Aviation Photographer

Guys,

Got a call from a group that needs a photographer to do some aviation shots of their new aircraft coming online.

As its needed for 'professional' shots, I've counted myself out do the inability of my cameras at the moment, & not that good yet! It may involve 'hanging' out of a helicopter.

Give me a PM - I need to close this before I go on holiday

The person I'm chasing specifically, I met you while at the mound once...

Spoke with Pat, telling him that I'd send all the details through to the guys who are actually wanting the photographer and they would be in contact.

Hello there Pat...

Well I sent through your contact details and your website and tried to chuff you in as much as possible. Unfortunately I'm not involved in the procurement of the photographer.

The event hasnt happened yet, so you still may be in luck?

Temporary?

if anyone in a light aircraft has an engine failure over the city... there is only one place they are going... and i gotta tell you - it aint jandakot ;)

not to mention that its listed in the country airstrip guide

Haha true, but I think it probably means that it's "decked out" as a "proper" airstrip for the event if it's anything like the one I went to some years ago.

Good to see they're doing it again though!

Has me stumped... Haha, I have emailed for further clarification. Also 11am seems to late as I had earlier information saying it will be 9am :? I think they should have organized it better.
