Eindhoven has a new photo opportunity, and it’s about to (at least partially) disappear within a short period from now. In between the military and civil ramps there has always been a large parking lot (P4). In the past few months a 4 stories high parking garage has been built on this spot, with open sides and an open top level.
From the top the view on runway, taxitracks and platforms is absolutely perfect. And all within good range of our cameras. For now it’s also possible to freely shoot in the direction of the military ramp, a view which had been obscured by camouflage nets for a long time. But with all operations exposed so clearly, the KLu is about to take measures to prevent viewing and photography in that direction by new means.
Therefore the chances to photograph local and visiting aircraft parked at the military ramp will only last for a (very!) short time to come, and you may want to grab this opportunity now that you still can. Hopefully the view at the runway and civil ramps will remain unobstructed in the future.
Here are the results of DC-10 T-255 coming back from a training flight on 8 May.
Happy shooting,
Iwan
I'll be back soon for some more of these "top-shots" before the opportunity is lost forever./saudi.gif)
