Hi,

The TNT flight again - this time returning to LGG caught just before sunset.

21:16; TAY11 JFK-LGG FL390 OO-TSB

Hi, Some great weather in the UK for the past few days. Not many movements though, but caught some rare sights. 1/6 05:00; TAY10 LGG-JFK FL320 OO-TSB https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-DSailSs2He0/Ua5M5Ken6dI/AAAAAAAAAJU/U0Cws1xy5VI/w200-h200-no/100_filtered.jpg https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-cQ...

Hi, It's a shame that the photo could have been better if the scope wasn't affected by the morning dew settling on the mirror. But at least a movement after such a long time. 27/05 06:53; DLH439 DFW-FRA FL370 D-AIKB https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-ITLdu7gBW1M/UadRK4LvT4I/AAAAAAAAAIA/iEpNYDBQq8g/w...

Hi,

17/05
Caught the same world cargo as vader

Just saw the two turkish 777 pass over with great contrast, but didnt have the scope out as just got back from work. I think they operate another flight to JFK that passes in the evening THY11. Turkish operates 3 times a day to JFK: THY3 (morning), THY1 (afternoon) and THY11 (evening). THY33 is to ...

Just saw the two turkish 777 pass over with great contrast, but didnt have the scope out as just got back from work. I think they operate another flight to JFK that passes in the evening THY11. I just hope he follows suit! Very nice capture of the air pullmantur Ian, nice etihad a346 capture from tc...

Hi, Pics from 29/4. Same movements as Vader , but the C17 managed to sneak past me as was not showing on fr24. SWR41 LAX-ZRH FL370 HB-JMA - very rare sight in our sky. https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-QuZgPoAchnk/UYAVzzhSHCI/AAAAAAAAAFw/axpbKu36zw4/w200-h200/236_filtered.jpg UAL1886 HHN-NKT FL340 ...

Thx! I sent you an e-mail few days ago ;) Checked my inbox but couldn't find the message. Please could you try sending the message again through luchtzak PM? Thank you. :) I spotted the Skyteam KLM 777 yesterday but had heatwaves and distortion in the photo. Also saw the Atlas Air whilst out on a w...

Right now I live in southwest UK anb below you can see few photos from my new home ;) Vader nice pics from your new location, not far from me - Yeovil is about 16 miles away so we should get the same movements :D Here is one with rainbow contrail taken on 16th April. Pic is taken using canon 500mm ...

I think its caused by the barlow lens, that barlow in the link is notorious for causing problems like the white spot. You should either buy a better quality one, i.e. televue, soligor, or just take the barlow off and shoot without it. Even though there will be less focal length you'll still get a be...

Hi, Clear skies all day on tuesday and didn't want to waste a nice clear day so took the scope to CPT VOR to catch more movements. Unfortunately had the same problem as DC10MD11, throughout the morning/afternoon the sky was full with heatwaves and haze and most pics went in the trash :cry:. Heatwave...

Hi, Just 2 photos in March. 19/03 FDX38 MEM-CGN FL370 N851FD https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-7WOmuY3x8o0/UVlf-4tXhqI/AAAAAAAAADA/4BtN1zDgbxs/s200/244_filtered 29/03 TOM16 LGW-SFB FL320 G_OOBL https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-nblSMzgzIU0/UVlf-7lckAI/AAAAAAAAAC8/M7um_hV9R60/s200/332_filtered.jpg ...

That Turkish 777, very nice pic and you caught the Barca livery... hats off to you, sir! :clap:

Still no sign of mr. blue sky for march hopefully things will improve soon.

Hi Everyone, February is looking a lot more promising :) We had very clear skies on Saturday, unfortunately i was working during the morning and could only watch them streak overhead but rushed home to catch a few afternoon shots. I was also after that Martinair MD-11 that DC10MD11 caught, but he fl...

Very nice catch Kopinet, the 787 looks strange from this angle, the wings look huge! I hope to catch the 787 in 2013.

DC10MD11, that orange fuselage could well be from de-icing fluid as in New York the temperature is around -1c with snow.

Clear skies forecast for tomorrow

Hi all, Yes its raining a lot atm, and the best use I can find for my telescope is to re-collimate it :roll: 2 photos in the last 2 months. 14/11/12: UAE201 DXB-JFK FL380 A6-EDB http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n58/jpro747/th_040.jpg 16/12/12: TSC583 LGW-YYZ FL270 C-GTSD http://i109.photobucket.co...

Hi and welcome! Yes it is worth buying a barlow lens so that you can increase the magnification significantly, but not the one you suggested. Many have tried that skywatcher barlow lens but didnt like the results it was giving. The best option is the televue 2x 2" powermate, but it comes at a p...

Hi, Had the same problems as DC10MD11 with the moisture in the air and on the mirror... created some problems and I had to use the hairdryer. :lol: Most pics went in the bin, including the Brussels A330 which came over at a nice angle... pity about the conditions. There were some evident strong uppe...
