Very nice photos, Ray!
I particularly like the Cobalt A319 departing.

Also, good to see an increase in photos posted. A sure sign that we're into Spring and Summer is on the way

Cheers

Kevin

Definitely, it was great to make the most of the sunshine yesterday, hopefully we'll have much more of it this summer

Colourful display, Ray. Great shots.

Great Pics buddy, especially the PIA 777. It is such a beast of an aircraft, in a good way.

Some pictures from Sheldon Country Park.

I'll get my excuses in early and say that the sun was against me for some of these

Next up was the delayed EK42 (A6-ENO) and the mornings Turkish Airlines (TC-JVE).

EK42's departure was only a few minutes before the arrival of EK39.

With Turkish departing just ahead of it.

Good day out and great weather Ray, and all I did all day was tidy my kids rooms, and cook dinner...and did the washing up and ironing. It was mothering sunday, but thanks for the snaps.

Love the Emirates on final taxi with the Turkish looming in the background.

Must check out the Sheldon end next time I am up. My little boy would love it.

Thanks Ray.

Hehe.

Mrs Finkle got a champagne breakfast in bed which bought me an hour off

Sheldon Country Park is great on a sunny day, lots and lots of families about. All we need is a picnic and a football and we can spend a few hours there

Great pics!

 

[Kevin Farnell]

All great photos, Ray but the Emirates B777 touching down at what appears to be at 45 degrees to the runway takes the biscuit!

Also, really like the Czech A319.

Cheers

It was quite a breezy day.

This picture of just before touchdown without the tyre smoke gives a better idea of the angle.

I think there were quite a few people making the most of a decent bit of sun

Great pictures as always
