Almost like Spring at Manchester today 8th Feb

[The Cameraman]

Hi Guys n Gals,

well it was my day off today and the wether forecast looked pretty good, so I sauntered down to Ringway (sorry Manchester Airport) to grab a few landing shots.

Nothing special but just nice to soak up a bit of sun.

We'll start off early in the morning with a Conti 757. Early as you can see with the sun and shadows in the fuselage.



Quickly followed by this little BA beastie.



I looked up and noticed this most unusual con trail!



Next it was the turn of a couple of ATR's.





Then a BMI mini bus.



A SAS 737.



Then a smart Libyan mini bus.



A Brussels RJ.



A BA 321.



A PIA 777.



And finishing with an Easy mini bus.



Oh I grabbed a German biz as well but thats' in the correct section!

Regards

Well thank you chaps.

The contrail was a right surprise! A large airliner had flown over a few minutes before and as I saw the contrail fade away it just changed shape. Most odd.

I musy admit that the images look well soft when compared with the originals, looks like Photobucket's at it again!

Hi Matey,

Hi Mach One,

the location is in the car park of the Tatton Arms.

See link for info and click on the 'show map' option.

Hi Drew,

I must admit that the PIA colours are a vast improvement.

And, as for the blue sky, I was being quite accurate with my shooting, trying to exclude what bit's of cloud there was. It was a lovely day. Back to the rain again this morning!

Regards

Reggie
