Hi,

Very nice weather today but lack of contrails... however I did manage to capture this Cargolux 747 (LX-UCV) this afternoon.

The weather is supposed to be very good for the next few days :D

Thanks,

Hello,

Some photos from October. Most days have typical autumn weather. Low overcast clouds for most of a day, and broken clouds with sunshine in late afternoon. So only in evenings I can do contrail spotting.

Hi,

A lot of interesting photos from you Asdrius, I like that colourful air china and the A380 is awesome.

Some great weather here too, still quite warm though (about 16°C) so photos not as sharp as I hoped. Here is my contribution:

Nice photos, I did not recognise the airline in second photo until I read small letters UNITED on the side of a plane :-) Amazing quality as always.

Same here. I thought it was condor at first. I think it must be the star alliance livery.

I always hear these up there but I've never managed to actually spot one. I dont know military jets very well so I cant identify it :-/ :
