Thanks for the background! It looked like telephoto distorting depth but good to know the actual distance.

That's as good as the pictures of the landings someone posted awhile back where the planes skim over the heads of the beachgoers.

That's what I'm talkin' about! Reminds me of my Willow Run days, watching Kalitta and Tower Air 747s take off loaded!  :-o
