Hello and welcome in the New Year!
 
Let the 2007 bring us all the best, health & wealth plus, of course, endless contrails in the skies. <img src="http://picsrv.fora.pl/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Very Happy" border="0"> 
Let us share our English-language photo-spotting experience here.
 
Very hot though winter-time wishes from all our staff to contrailsUK and anybody else who wishes to join our groing pro team!

contrailsUK!
 
Beautiful pictures. The second one showing a British tripple seven got me lose my jaw!
 
By the way: the BWIA picture seems quite historic now, as it was the airline's last service. Since today it ceases to exist.
 
Lucky you to have caught it!

Yes sad thing really, I really love that airline the colours were so magnificant <img src="http://picsrv.fora.pl/images/smiles/icon_cry.gif" alt="Crying or Very sad" border="0"> I have heard that a new airline 'Carribean Airlines' is supposed to be taking its place. _________________ ContrailsUK

I see, that you have experimented with new exposure parameters <img src="http://picsrv.fora.pl/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" border="0"> 
I still have a problem with taking pictures with sun in eyes and unfortunately most planes are flying south of me... _________________ Grzegorz Tuszyński

Great pictures, Singapore wasn't fly at UM984, this route is going from NE to SW direction (and back), and the SIA we were talking about in occassion of my photo (I think it was also SQ21) is flying over Poland from NW to SE direction. It could be for example UN983, UL621 and so on. If you want a Polish routes map, it's free available at <a href="http://ais.pata.pl/aip/" target="_blank" class="postlink">eAIP-Poland</a> (you only need to register) in ENR 6.2-3.

Another set of great photos, contrailsUK!
 
By the way, I didn't know Etihad flies the Calgary-Brussels route.
 
Isn't that the Toronto flight?
 
Cheers,
 Rafal
