Clunk, I have a some nifty DoF calculators from Thom (www.bythom.com) which work it all out for you.
If you want, let me know what focal distance is and I'll give you the start-of-focus and end-of-focus distances at a given aperture :) Very handy :)
i would recommend this:

Looking at the dofmaster chart, I entered the values and it gave me this for f/2.8.

Depth of field
Near limit 5.99 in
Far limit 6.01 in
Total 0.02 in
In front of subject 0.01 in (50%)
Behind subject 0.01 in (50%)
Hyperfocal distance 2639.7 in
Circle of confusion 0.019 mm
And this for f/4.

This is probably one of the closest shots I've ever got.
I can't remember the settings but it was with a 50mm and some extension tubes.

That's one of the best I've seen of the Arrows, well done.
Thanks :) and another

Those arrows shots are magnificent - without the sun glinting off the cockpits they could be oil paintings rather than photos!
Time to bring the standards back down with more compact P&S shots - lavender's already finishing now and the honey bees have only just found our garden.
