A Fun Ride to Stansted (followed by an evening shooting!) – 28/06/2010

Made my way to Luton airport yesterday lunch time, then boarded this very nice Legacy for the afternoon.

Very nice!

Where did you make these photos? I have been to STN once or twice and never had good luck spotting there. Is the place easily accesible by foot / public transport?

I wonder if this might help you out:

Thanks for the comments.

What time does the UPS arrive?

It’s normally due about 21:40 from Philadelphia, so this is about the only 2 weeks of the year where you stand a chance of catching it in sunlight. Luckily for me on this day, it actually arrived over half hour early at 21:05!

This mound is North side of the runway, unfortunately there is absolutely no way here by public transport…there’s not even a nearby village within the next couple of miles! In terms of public transport, the absolutely only place you can reach is the approach field when they’re on RWY05, which is only 25% of the time so it’s a bit of a gamble if you’re flying over for the day. If you could get a cheap hire car for the day, then it’s a very easy 5 mile drive from round the terminal side.

Seeing as the weather was so good, I headed over for an hour or so shooting in the evening rush hour.
