More camera practice at Sรคve, rewarded by some unusual movements . . .
1. My usual parking spot, underneath the northern approach lights!
2. Germanwings A319 Airbus D-AKNJ “City of Athens” taxying out,
3. and ready for take-off, with our local ambulance helicopter in the distance.
4. Ryanair EI-DHE arriving,
5. and about to touch down.
6. Gulfstream G-IV-SP N343DF arriving full of wealthy businessmen, I suppose.
7. EI-DCT turning for take-off,
8. while this Navajo C SE-GIN just couldn’t wait, as EI-DCT is on its take-off roll.
9. Here is SE-GIN at the end of the runway.
10. Next Ryanair to depart, EI-DHE.
(More pix soon!)

Mazda MX-5 Miata, sadly vandalised in February when the pikeys took half the engine out – took 2 months to repair!
Sorry to go off-thread, but I love my car almost as much as aircraft!
What wan*ers did you ever catch them?
Nice shots there off save like the Wizz air shot

Excellent shots! Particularly love the ones of EI-DHE, flew that aircraft both ways LBA-DUB-LBA on Wednesday. ๐

Final batch from Sรคve
11. EI-DHE lifting off.
12. EI-DCT also lifting off, from my newly-found spotting spot at the south end of the runway – I’ll be using this spot much more in the future! Only a local resident would be able to find it, though.
13. EI-DCT folds up her wheels,
14. and all clean, jets off.
15. Goshdarn it, on my way home I had to stop at the traffic lights for this Wizzair Airbus HA-LPC A320-233 arriving from Warsaw to land, grabbed my camera and shot through the side window – but it worked!
Not bad for a couple of hours in the sunshine – and almost all the pix came out OK, thanks partly to much use of my trusty unipod.
The Canon EOS 350D is the bees knees as far as I am concerned!
All I have to do now is to upgrade from 200 mm to 300 mm or even 500 mm!
