Hey all,
Just a few recent shots from my Trip out to Freiburg in Germany, via a brief 1 hour stop over at Basel.
Enjoy. 🙂

Take-off, aboard G-EUPE. As you can see it was a very dull day in London.

We headed out over Kent, enabling me to get a nice air to ground shot of Manston – quite a few 747’s parked up down there.

Another of Manston, burried amongst the Kent towns. Just about to head out now over the English Channel.

As we approached Belgium, i spotted this airport….any ideas folks? Also note the SN Brussels 146 to the right of the shot. 🙂 Lucky catch. 😀

After touching down in Basel, we taxiied alongside this beauty. Glad i got to see her, after missing it at the various events last year! Notice she has the rudder missing. Though since this shot was taken (on may 18th) she has taken back to the air again, ready for the airshow season. 🙂

And finally, this is what my aircraft parked up next too. The weather wasn’t much better this end! However the weather was alot better in Germany. 🙂
