I think the sense of adventure would disappear when the Alsatians were let off the chain....

 I must have been to both Richmond and Williamtown a few hundred times now openly taking photographs and only ever been asked once what I was doing. Even then the guard was only interested in the camera I was useing as he was about to buy a DSLR himself!!

Matthew,
Try something like F8 for about 1 to 4 seconds depending on the amount of lighting around. The Nikon D300 has a "Long Exposure Noise Reduction" setting that might be worth playing with if there is a Canon equivalent, although it is normally for much longer exposure settings. I would also use the timer to take the shot so your hands do not move the camera at all.

Just on the same topic but a little different.
I will be flying on a few different 'big' aircraft at the end of the year like an A346 for Virgin Atlantic and a Qantas 744 up to Asia and of course when you arrive it will be dark. What settings would best be used at night for a flight deck? I will be using a tripod i hope if i have enough time as you know some of the crew are happy to let you come up but not for long. What would be the best settings to use for a night shot like this? I kind of want to set my shutter/ISO/appature settings before i go in there so i can be quick but get good results. Even settings for daytime shots as most of mine come out nice but you cannot see out the window. I have been browsing A.net and JP and some photos both outside and in are perfect. What they look like now: http://myaviation.net/?pid=01270995 What im after: Day Both inside and outside are clearly visable as mine arent  http://www.jetphotos.net/viewphoto.php?id=6274088 Night I am more looking at the panel lighting and which settings would be best to use here. http://www.jetphotos.net/viewphoto.php?id=6115783 I know the hardest thing will be getting in the flight deck in the 1st place but i want to be prepared if i can sneek in there. Thanks everyone. Tim

For daylight photos, if you have the time you can take two photos.
One exposed for the interior, and one for the exterior. Then, composite them together in your favourite image editing software.
