Hello,
a few new snaps from the last days, at least the sun shines again but today most pictures suffered from warm and wet air. Yesterday a JAL passed over (Japanese are very rare in my area) but it was hiding in the clouds . Hoping for more luck next time....


Greetings from Germany

I feel like I always have to complain about the weather, but when the interesting aircraft are coming conditions are not good. Too many Ryans, BAs, Wizz and Easyjets, few highlights By the way: it just starts raining...

Fokker 50 P4-IAS from Air Astana with contrails flying over EDVY. Nice photo's! That F50 seems to be far away from home?! Do you know where it was going to (or came from), Woensdrecht maybe? After some research and re-examination of the original picture I change the identity to P4-IAS, the Fokker w...

Hello, some pictures from the last couple of days. As the sky was always hazy, most pics suffer. Today I managed to get the RAF ZZ330, but due to it´s grey colour it was virtually invisible and the resulting pictures terrible :( . Tomorrow we expect about 30' Celsius :oops: so conditions won´t impro...

Many clouds and a lot of haze the last days. Royal Air Force Airbus MRTT ZZ330 was around a few times, probably visiting Hannover, but I couldn´t find it in the sky . Still looking for a passable picture, but around 95% crappy , but I keep trying .

A few pictures from April, either there were high clouds or distortions from the heat, so many photos turned out to be poor. A short trip to EDDV proved that taking photos of aircraft on the ground was equally challenging, with the heat from the tarmac ruining all long distance shots :x regards Kopi...

@contrailwatcherUK: Could be VIA, I agree. They state on their homepage that thay expect deliveries in early 2012 and 2013 to replace their oldest aircraft. And they have IAE engines. ;) These Airbus test flights from Finkenwerder are like surprise eggs -could be anything. :lol: Btw: Airbus have mad...

Hello, a few results from March, there were many interesting visitors up there, but conditions were generally poor with high clouds and distortions.
I hope these pics are not too embarrassing

As the weather wasn´t that good here the last weeks, there were few occasions to take photos and many results were poor. Real highlights were few, so here´s some more or less standard traffic.

Even though its a little bit late, a happy new year to all of you and thanks for the great pictures from January :D . There were some interesting visitors like the A9C-KB from Gulf Air and my first 747-8s G-GSSE and G-GSSF, both on the same day, but due to the clouds and haze most pictures were terr...

Seems like you´ve got it , and they have only one, so this must be UR-DAF. Sometimes I let flightradar replay the day´s movements when I took photos far from home, but this one didn´t show up, so it must have been in stealth mode .

There are always aircraft buzzing around, many of them don´t appear on Flightradar, because they don´t have the ADS-B transponder. So when eg. KLM exchanges Fokker 70s with Embraer E-Jets there´s less traffic visible on Flightradar :( . Here´s a little collection of those non-appearers, but don´t ex...

Now that I found some time to take care of the pictures taken over the last few weeks, these are my first results from December. Limitations due to the weather are obvious.

Sorry for being late, I add these two pictures from late November.

Hello,
many interesting aircraft buzzing around, but it´s hard to get them, because of the fog. At least there were a few moments with blue sky, but still many crap photos with massive distortions .
Hope you like the birds

best wishes

Hello, breaking the routine of the usual aircraft visiting home, there were some exciting (and unexpected) props in the skies. So this time a collection of aircraft from eastern Europe. Enjoy.

Hello, had some interesting aircraft the last days, but the weather was not good for taking photos. After some research I agree the VC10 might be an Il-62 (boring) :? I´ll change the text accordingly. Could be Rossija. The new sightings are verified, so please no complaining :o Have fun Kopinet

UNKNOW BIZJET(many KMs away).

My guess: Global 5000.

Nice pics !

Many thanks Kiffy, looks like you´ve got it ! As this topic is rather new to me, I´m still learning :idea: . I have a good knowledge on aviation, but identification from below is tricky. When flightradar is on I can see what´s buzzing around here, but I take photos virtually everywhere and have to i...

Hello, nice to see so many great shots from DC10MD11 and contrailwatcherUK :D . You really have some nice birds flying overhead ! Today there were moments when the lower clouds disappeared, but there was always haze in the upper level :( Traffic was rather sparse and nothing exciting, except for the...
