Thank you all contributors for this month. Not much to show from my side as still too much atmospheric distortions. But I guess things will improve next weeks or months.
Here two shots of earlier this month. They were taken in a time window of 150 seconds. First one is a Qatar "closely" followed by a Virgin Airbus on almost the same corridor. If I only played on Euro millions that day...two balls advantage.

Re: Contrail spotting September 2008
As usual nice shots James.
Afterall I had not to wait untill December to capture the A380 of EK when they will start a schedule to LHR.
Last week, the twice weekly test run to JFK showed up a couple of times on UL608, so last Sunday the oportunity was taken to nail her.
