dark light

4 flights… One day! (CAUTION – Contains scenes of Dreamliner ;)).

Hi guys,

As you will have seen from the thread by Paul (PMN), we had a mad 4 flight in a day trip last Wednesday. Here much later than scheduled are my shots.

First flight was onboard G-CELV LBA-BFS. The flight was on time, and MUCH emptier than the week before when I flew the same route:

Paul proving that a ‘Bigma’ and a Jet2 737-300 really don’t go together all that well… ;).

Really pleased with how this came out, on approach to Belfast International.

Couple of shots before boarding our flight to Stansted onboard G-EZJX including G-CELV preparing for its departure back to LBA.

Next flight was also on time and fairly full. easyJet were ok, not my favourite low cost airline, prefer Jet2. They seemed quite cramped for some reason. Some wing shots:

I’ll do it for £32 an hour! :diablo:

It’s been sunny here (albeit for very brief spells) today Lance. You’d get scared and run away if you saw that strange and evil ball of fire in the sky. I know it’s the stuff of legends over your way! :diablo:

Where an earth in this thread that you set of very early and arrived very late? Plus you could have taken pics on the airplane when you took off or something

What is your obsession with LBA shots?! I’ll tell you what… You can either:

A: Buy a camera, learn how to use it and take as many LBA shots as you like, or…

B: Pay me £35.00 an hour and I’ll take as many shots of LBA as you like for you.

The choice is yours!

We had 4 flights in one day… LBA-BFS is twice daily with one in the morning and one at night. We wouldn’t be able to fit 4 flights in with a late night departure… And before you say anything, I did say it was a daytrip.

I could of, but frankly, couldn’t be bothered as the weather wasn’t that cracking at the time!

Well excuse me! We departed LBA at 07:00, and arrived back at 22:10. Hardly the ideal time for going to take photos I think you will agree! I’m not going to stand at the cemetry at 05:30 and see nothing happen!

Excellent shots Tom! I still love that shot as we were coming into Belfast. Hard to imagine the Titanic steaming out of there almost 9 decades ago!
