Wow.... The Antonov An-2 is the right plane to hit. Built like a tank, super reliable. A great Ukrainian design from the late ‘40’s. There’s 1000’s flying all over the world with all kinds of mods/engines/wings. A superb airplane that will probably keep going for another 50 yrs...

There’s some excellent imagery here — check-out all the category winners at the bottom of the page. iPhone cameras continue to improve. I use my iPhone 11 Pro Max camera almost everyday, it’s the first smartphone camera that makes me not feel guilty about going to get a DSLR...

Very, very well done!

Very nice image!

7.9” iPad Mini 5 is a nice size/weight, great screen...

If you use an iPad instead of your iPhone, and are near a known WiFi network, disable WiFi calling...

Wow....unbelievable...

I’m a big fan of the 8” iPad Mini 5. It’s bright, light, and useful for other stuff when you get home. A shade makes it even better. I got a used 64GB model off Craigslist cheap, might buy another one...

Most of us truly want to learn as much as we can from all flyaways. It’s happened to many of us for a variety of reasons, myself included. There’s no worse feeling than the helplessness seeing your expensive, uncontrollable drone fly away. All brands do it... For our education, we’d really like...

I’d sure like to know more — specs like range/speed/safety...

Do they need any pilots? :cool:

Yea, many of us have been attacked by birds, it’s amazing how territorial they are. Check your footage frame-by-frame, you might find a gem like I did. This is a Hawaiian hawk, who obviously didn’t want my XSP in his ‘hood.

Very nice photos!

I’m guessing this is based on the suicide drone swarm attack on the Saudi oil refineries. Only a few folks guided many drones to the targets...
