My first pic post on here – after seeing so much of MAN and EDI, thought I’d better stick up for my part of the world!!
Foggy morning cleared enough for some good photography – and some nice ones in today. Flavio Briatori’s Challenger stood out – as did the Air Wales ATR-42. Can’t believe it would have been a bad weather divert from CWL – BRS was just as bad!






Cheers,
Phil.

Great pics, nice variety!
I live in bristol and always fancied a trip out to the airport to take in the view….are there very many places for photography? security a problem?
Yeh – do it, Coanda, its nice up there on a clear day 🙂
As I said – the best place is on the lane running around the western end of the runway. People do stop out on the A38 – only tried it once, but I get very paranoid about the police moving me on, so prefer to play it safe. Besides – the A38 isn’t all that good for piccies anyway.

G-FBFI is operated by Gama Aviation based here at Farnborough, however it doesnt spend much of its time here at all.

Thanks for the comments guys.
To answer the questions – I don’t know why the Challenger was at Bristol, no idea at all. I think I’m correct in saying its not based there either (!). It was nice to see, all the same.
I was standing on a step ladder, yeh, parked up on the lane running around the 09 end of the runway.

Amazing quality! Did you manage to take pictures through that new, big perimeter fence or did you need a step ladder?

I made my post before I looked at the pics. They are amazing. Some of the best I have ever seen.
