Hi All
As there seem to be a good few people on here from around the LBA area, I thought I’d post a few photos I took up there throughout last year. The quality isn’t up to much generally, but until I get a better camera and learn to use Photoshop properly it’s the best I can do:)
Photobucket seems to have an odd habit of making things different sizes so apologies for that, but anyway…Here they are!



Tom (LBARULES), this one’s for you mate!

Thats the day I landed back at LBA!!! 17:48 that will have been the departure to DLM, you didnt get the arrival from ZTH at around 15:30?
No mate I didn’t get there that early. I usually arrived at the Cemetary around 4:30 when it started getting busy, but only after having a ritual cup of tea in the terminal so I probably walked past you in the airport at some point!
BHXLocal, thanks for your comment! My camera is a Fuji S5500 which I bought at the start of last year but I’m considering upgrading at some point this year. It just depends how much I spend on flights to various places!

Thanks for the comments guys. I started taking shots of planes 9 months ago, so I’m still a total beginner and learning something new on every session, but I’m gettling there s-l-o-w-l-y! Looking forward to getting some photos from MAN up here on Thursday!
Great shots PMN, what camera do you use as the quality is great? 😀

The real reason I like the one of BYAY (Apart from the fact its a 757), is that it took me to Zakynthos and back in August!
Let me guess the shot was taken around end of August/start of September?
Yep, at 17:48 on the 5th of September in fact!

Tom, yeah it’s BYAY. As a fellow 757 fan I thought you might like that one!

Brilliant shots Paul!
Am I right in thinking the one of the Thomsonfly is G-BYAY? (From what I can see on the underside of the wing) ;), love that shot!

Great shots there mate! 😀

G-BXDT, that’s the one I went in for my trial lesson. 😀

Very nice indeed. My new years resolution is to get a few more photos from the LBA this year, I only paid one proper visit last year!
By: Canpark - 2nd January 2006 at 02:00
Those are very nice pictures.
By: FlyMonarch - 2nd January 2006 at 00:34
very very nice love the Jet2 of course 😀
By: Future Pilot - 2nd January 2006 at 00:28
Well very very nice selection Paul! 😀
Who’s that in the pictures?
Ahhh it seems you answered my question already 😉

Such a shame the Swefly 767 didn’t pay us a few more visits. Ah well!
By the way if the guy in the Bulls top is a member here, I hope you don’t mind me using the shots with you in them. I just thought it gave a nice perspective of the aircraft!
