contrailsUK!
 
Absolutely gorgeous pics! You're great, man!
 
All of them are stunning, with Asiana, Martinair, United and A380 being my favourite. The Martinair, however, is somehow incredibly mysterious and I can't help staring at it again and again.
 
Share your photos with us regularly and please tell your friends to do the same. Funny thing is many of our Polish shots show aircraft originating from or destined to the UK. So, in many cases we may photograph the same airliners with around two-hour difference! <img src="http://picsrv.fora.pl/images/smiles/icon_cool.gif" alt="Cool" border="0"> 
By the way, where exactly in England are you spotting and shooting?
 
Best regards,

HI,
 
Thanks to all for the nice comments, I will post some more when the skies clear up.
 
I am spotting in Dorset, England and underneath airways UM140 and UN20 (closest), but I can also see airways UR8 and UW501. If I look on the horizon i can also see two very busy airways (UL607 and UL9) which many planes cruise on.
 
It looks like you guys see A LOT MORE contrails than I do, I very rarely get two planes crossing one another.
 
Sadly, I dont know anyone else who does contrail spotting in England. I think I am the only one. LOL.
 
I am hoping to get a new telescope soon, so hopefully I shall get better pictures and may even be able to see the registration <img src="http://picsrv.fora.pl/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif" alt="Smile" border="0">

contrailsUK!
 
Great pics again! I can see you are frequented by United Airlines aircraft. <img src="http://picsrv.fora.pl/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif" alt="Smile" border="0"> You've already provided us with UA's old, new and S.A. liveries in your photos.
 
Speaking of American airliners, we don't get United here (except for special occasions like the US president's arrival in Krakow or Warsaw), but we do have Delta (mostly routing to/from Kiev in Ukraine). Sometimes we can see A340-500s of Emirates and Singapore Airlines cruising to/from New York. I guess you could theoretically see and shoot them, too.
 
Best regards,

hi FL350,
 
I do see a lot of United Airlines and most of the aircraft I see are transatlantic flights. I have seen UAE202 routing KJFK-OMDB. here is a photo:

I see Turkish Airlines, Royal Jordanian, Aerosvet, Saudi Arabian, Egypt airlines, Kuwait Airlines and Israel Airlines from America which you guys must see sometimes in Poland!

Hi there,
 
Its been a while since I last posted on here because the weather has been so bad <img src="http://picsrv.fora.pl/images/smiles/icon_cry.gif" alt="Crying or Very sad" border="0"> 
Yesterday the weather cleared up a bit, and I tried out my new telescope <img src="http://picsrv.fora.pl/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif" alt="Smile" border="0"> 
Here is RYR1972 on UM140 @ 11:05am:
 <img src="http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n58/jpro747/ryr2.jpg" border="0"> 
My first attempt with my new scope, fl=1200mm with canon 350D.
 
I hope you like it, I will try to post some more when I get the chance
 
Thanks,

Contrails!
 
Great to hear (and see) from you again!
 
Well, obviously your scope does pay back as this Ryan looks great.
 
Hope one of these happy guys flying to Spain will find your pic here or there to include it into his holiday album. <img src="http://picsrv.fora.pl/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" border="0"> 
By the way the machine (EI-DLB) is brand new - serving for Ryan for less than a year now.
 
As for the weather, yes typically English, heh?
 
Here in Poland, when it's raining or drizzling for days we say "What an English weather!"... <img src="http://picsrv.fora.pl/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" border="0"> 
On the contrary, autumn in Poland is usually very sunny (except for November) and we even metaphorically call it "Polish Golden Autumn".
 
Take more pics with your new Bigeye and bring them here. We're waiting!
 
Best regards,
