Air Challenge 2012

Well another month gone by. We had Tina's sister to stay for a couple of weeks and while she was here it was the annual Air Challenge. Organised by the biggest hotel in St. Wolfgang, the Scaleria, with a lot of input from Red Bull. There are lots of seaplanes landing on the lake and this year we had the Dornier DO-24 ATT as well the Sikorsky S-38. I think the Sikorsky had  been in the film 'Aviator' with Leonardo Di Caprio.

Anyway, here are a couple of pics that I took with the Nikon and the 55-200 lens.
