A new summer month is starting, with hopefully lots of sunshine. A new opportunity to post your best contrail pictures.

Hello,

after coming back from my holidays, here are some pics from early August. Sorry for the substandard quality of the first two ones, but I find these aircraft exciting, although I haven´t identified the airlines yet, perhaps somebody can help a little bit.

Edit: got the second Douglas, an MD-87 also from Danish Air Transport, so I got them both. ;)

Thanks Ian,

the DC-9 relatives (MD-8x,B717) are getting rare these days, so it was nice to catch some during holidays. Unfortunately you won´t find them on flight tracker replays when you´re back home, and the only ones around here were SAS, (these will be history soon :( ) , so in fact I didn´t see many in my life...

Kind regards

Yes, it is SP-EQE, EuroLOT promotes with a special livery the mountainous Subcarpathian province (pl: podkarpacie) in south-eastern Poland. My family region :) From/to KRK/GDN.

Hi,

Some photos taken today. We had showery weather with some breaks in the clouds and there was some nice contrast. Unfortunately no contrails.

10:44; TCX634 LGW-SFB FL230+ G-MLJL

Great catch of ACA Rouge DC10MD11 ;)

Regards.
