OK! Nice shot, but where did you shoot it from? The aircraft is level, that means either on top of the building or DID YOU GET A RIDE?

I WISH I got a ride :). Actually, I think the 2nd guy in No. 7 must be a VIP getting a ride because it was a practice run. I think in the actual performance, they are all single seaters.

I was standing at Crissy Field (sea level), so I got lucky. Either he was flying low, or I happened to catch him during a turn. Everything happens so fast while shooting an airshow that I don't remember the exact circumstances when getting certain shots.

They other reason that it looks level is because he is actually pretty far away. You have to remember that I was shooting with a 500mm which on a dslr is equivalent to a 750mm (!).
