yes. and no. Zoom lens add bokeh, a good thing, but also magnify shake. In photography, it's hard to beat up close and personal.

Getting a cool shot is one thing. Living to tell how you got it is another thing. I like to get the cool shots while remaining at a safe distance so the wake(not that there's much wake from a Cessna) doesn't mess up my beard.

Idiots come in all sizes and shapes. Spot on the plane? More like idiot struck by plane crashes.

Best article I've seen on this. Everyone else seems to think this kid is some kind of hero for surviving. Lucky he's not a spot on the plane.
