Summer is over today

And typical autumn weather today, lots of clouds, rain. But in the afternoon there was a 30min clear gap in the sky, just enough to get few pics for me

Hi,

Nice MD-11's ContrailsUK. I am always happy to see them flying, because they are dying breed, between so many boring twin jets.

The contrails shadow pic is also very nice.

Some pics from last few weeks:

B747-400 Cathay Pacific CPA260 LFPG-VHHH


TU-154M RA-85811 Aeroflot AFL106 EDDF-UUEE


And some nice cargo trijets. Nice to see MD-11s and especially DC-10's still flying, although Aeroflot Cargo is going to retire their DC-10's very soon

DC-10-40F Aeroflot Cargo RCF908 EDFH-UUEE


MD-11F Lufthansa Cargo GEC8393 UACC-EDDF


That's all

Hello,

MD-11s are quite regular for me, as I see a lot of KLM and Martinair going to/from the Caribbean. Also quite a few cargo flights like world airways fly over.

Hi,

At the begining of September I was on a journey in Germany, and on one afternoon I had the opportunity to do contrail photography in one location in Germany. I was a bit lazy, that only now I took some time to process those photos

My location that afternoon was in Norhtern Germany 30km east of Bremen, just below UP605 airway:


2007/09/06

15:50 UP605
B777-300 Air France AFR291 RJBB-LFPG


16:00 UP605
B777-300 Air France AFR125 ZBAA-LFPG


16:05 UP605
B777-200 Air France AFR117 ZSPD-LFPG


16:15 UP605
A319 Air France AFR2699 ULLI-LFPG


16:17 UP605
B777-200 Air France AFR275 RJAA-LFPG


16:44 on no particular airway, NE direction
B737-300 KDAvia KNI??? I am not sure, but it was going probably from Dusseldorf or Amsterdam to Kaliningrad



I was quiet shocked after this one hour spotting session, because I did not see any new airplanes. I always see Air France B777's almost daily and KDAvia's 737's, Air France A319's even more than 3-4 times per day from my home,

I was dissappointed that being over 1000km from home I caught the same airplanes I see everyday in my hometown
