The 2009 flying season started very well with
a great opportunity to shoot the Dassault Falcon 2000 bizzliner, a luxury
private jet operated by Solid aiR. As I flew with them before in 2008, I
knew exactly what I wanted. The intention of the flight was to capture both
still images as film for a commercial. I choose the Skyvan as our photoship,
piloted by Tony de Bruyn. He's one the great European 'photo'pilots ( being
an enthousiastic photographer himself ) and knew precisely how to position
the Skyvan to have the best possible result. The pilots of the Falcon 2000
did a fantastic job as well, as it is never easy to fly formation with an
aicraft of lesser performance |
