I currently use cheap point and shoot camera. It limits the quality of my images an awful lot, but you just can't beat the variety and spontaneity of it. Many shots are only possible with a small point and shoot that would be missed carrying an SLR. The latter takes the better image, though. I actually prefer a point and shoot because there is a lot more spontaneity when using it in an airplane.

I couldn't agree more. I bought a ~$100 Samsung P&S just to keep in my flight bag incase I ever want to take a picture. I still take my Canon 30D up if there is something that I am planning on shooting (property aerials, air-to-air, etc.) but some of my favorite flying pictures have come off the Samsung.

Nice shots Cubdriver, hate to see all those neglected toys.
If anyone wondered, some of the B-52s were chopped into pieces and left open to satellite view to comply with an old Soviet era treaty.
