Let's start another great month of contrail spotting!
Hello
Today heavy thunderstorm activities in my area. Many airplanes were flying around the storms, not on normal airways.
I don't know how high the tops of the Cb clouds were, but even planes cruising at FL380 were turning away from storms.
Here are some westbound planes flying 20km away from usual UL29 airway, which was covered with huge Cb clouds:
16:29
B747-200F Air China Cargo CAO1047 ZBAA-EDDF
16:56
A320 Air France AFR1945 UUEE-LFPG
Also I hear next week there will be champions league final in Moscow and several hundred charter flights from UK are planned to Moscow.
Maybe I'll see some of them?
Sometimes London-Moscow flights are made on UN858. But usually they fly on more northerly route via Baltic sea and Latvia.

Hello,
Today some champions league charter flights from UK to Moscow passed close to me. I saw TravelService B738's, Air Finland B752, several Corsair 744's
Managed to get a photo only for Air Finland:, and it was not very good, against the sun:
Maybe I'll get more luck tommorow. Many more football charters are expected tomorrow at Moscow.
10:47 UM874, at FL350
B757-200 OH-AFK Air Finland FIF1273 EGCC-UUDD
And some other usual flights:
18:21 UN858
DC-10F Aeroflot Cargo RCF914 EDFH-UUEE
Flying below cirrus layer at high altitude.
20:03 UM874 at FL380
B747-400ERF PH-CKB KLM Cargo KLM170 VHHH-EHAM
That's all. I really hope to see and capture more Champions League charters tomorrow.

Nice pics as always, it seems you get a lot of Jet Airways.
I had a lot of hopes for this champions league charters from/to Moscow. And actually a lot of interesting planes passed high above my city, BUT weather was total disaster.
All days totally covered in cloud, rain. Only on Tuesday some sunshine and Air Finland B752 was the only champions league charter I got in picture.
