Re: Laredo USA - Spotting Paradise - Jan 2024 (civ & mil)

Indeed a brilliant set of pictures. Aircrafts seem to be posing at the right angle with the right light. All neat from an airfield I didn't knew about. And there is so much more cool stuff on your flickr page... Question: On the FedEx A300 photo I can see your shade plus the fence. Are you using a l...

Lisbon - 23-24/01/2024 (CIV)

I've had to visit Lisbon last week. Since the weather forecast was showing abundant sunlight (almost 20ºC!), I decided to pack my camera. I've been to the airport on the afternoon of the 23rd and morning/afternoon of the 24th. The photos bellow are shown in chronological order. https://blogger.googl...

Lisbon - 21/11/2023 (CIV)

Hello everyone On the 21st of November I did spotting at Lisbon on a cloudless day with great Winter light. As the Sun is on a much lower position during this time of the year, afternoon photos were taken as aircraft line up on runway 02 instead of approach shots. https://blogger.googleusercontent.c...

Hi everyone. After the Palma de Mallorca trip I visited Lisbon for planespotting on two different occasions. One in July (25th and 26th) and another one in August (7th until 11th).

Re: Lajes (LPLA/TER) 2023 MIL

Yesterday, 14 USAF F-16 landed at Lajes. They arrived from Shawn Air Base and most likely they will go to Aviano, since all of them had the AV code. First one to land (89-2030) was the only one with a special colour scheme, with a 510FS logo painted on the tail plus "est.1943" titles. Full list of t...
