The top plane I believe is a Harvard which I have flown in Florida not sure about the bottom one. Nice to see tow totally different engine types jet and piston flying together is the image. Nice clear detail of both planes and the brightly sky works well.

Nice initial impact, guess it's the older model planes that give me the story of another time. No, WAIT... Is that really a Play-Boy Bunny??? Girl - you did not select the warning label - LOL Good framing, focus and story - thank for sharing.

Excellent shot of these two planes. We have an annual airshow where they re-enact Tora Tora Tora and it's wild with lots of bombs and fireworks. Fun to attend. Love what you did to the sky here, it looks very natural. Well done my friend.

Very awesome shot, I do like the sky and they were very close to each other. The plane on top looks like one that I took some shots of as they practiced. You focus is excellent for an action shot. What lens were you using? Great composition and worthy of a 6 but I am all out of them, So here's a cyber 6 for you.

Excellent shot. Great stop the action, nice lighting, sharp focus, and nice color and contrast. I like the angle of capture and the clouds on background. Well done.

Friend - you've definitely hit the nail on the head with this picture, highly appealing for an Aircraft lover like myself, showing two distinctively different aircraft, representative of two notable eras in aviation. The one of the top happens to be an AT6 Texan, conceived and built before WWII by North American Aviation. It was the mainstay training aircraft for Army Air Forces, the U.S. Navy, and the British ( who named it affectionately as the "Harvard" ), and who would later emerge as much more experienced pilots of far more illustrious fighters, such as the P-51 Mustang, the P-38 Lightning, the P-47 Thunderbolt, the F4U Corsair and F6 Hellcat. From the British side: the trademark Supermarine Spitfire and Hawker Hurricane.
Regarding the aircraft on the bottom, I think it is of British make, made by Hawker aviation, and incidentally used as a training aircraft, in order to being able to eventually fly the notable Panavia Tornado, the Sepcat Jaguar, and the much more new Eurofighter. This specific aircraft is also used by the famous British acrrobatic team, dubbed the "Red Arrows", which are the equivalent of the U.S. Blue Angels. Thank you for sharing this!
Cheers.

Nice capture! Unusual to be able to get this type of shot. Nice POV, colors and framing of the fighter jets. The jets are not sharp, but understandable due to the type of shot. Thanks for sharing

What a great picture against a blue, white sky, you can almost hear the roar of the engines as they take to flight and you can imagine the pilots here ready to show their flying abilities.
