Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

Munich EDDM/MUC 2012-07-20

Post by Maikel van der Heijden »

Part 6 of the summer road trip:
16-07: Frankfurt EDDF
17/18-07: Zurich LSZH
19/20-07: Munich EDDM via Innsbruck LOWI

We began our day early at 6am on the north side of the airport to capture some landings on runway 26R. We only found a mount near the threshold of runway 08L (backlight), so we only waited for some traffic from the USA and thereafter we moved to the visitors centre between the 2 runways.

Then it was time to get back to the hotel and have a good night sleep for the 8 hour drive home. This was the last day of my spotting trip, I hope you enjoyed watching it!

Nice photos... :respect:
Question: how many mm is needed for the runway photos??...
And are all the photos taken from a viewingdeck or something??..

I asked this because i would like to visit Munchen in the near future.

Grt,

For the 26L landings and departures 200-300mm is enough, for instance: photo 20 is taken at 167mm. Photo 23 at 332mm and photo 24 at 244mm.
For the spots I used this one: http://www.mucspotter.de/Fotopositions/ ... -klein.jpg

For most of the small red dots next to the runways you need a large ladder. You can better go to the bigger in the north, middle and south. That's where I took my pics. Thanks for the replies!
