Finally have access to photoshop again so have given so of the shots from that day a quick edit. Another daytrip to DUB just for the sake of it, and to meet up with Wannabe Pilot. Weather wasn’t great as you can see (surprise surprise) but it was a nice surprise when r/w 16 ended up getting used!
EI-CSI, my carriage to DUB back in Feb.

I know what you mean about the fence at the 28 end,i haven’t gone down that end since they put it up,apparently it was a mistake to put it up that high,as just after the lay-by it drops by about a foot!,if 28 is the active i go half way down the runway,about the point of rotation for most stuff.A bit of good news is that the car park behind the hill that i stand on now,is to be expanded,so now a large hill goes the FULL length of the rest of 28 from my current spot.So it’s about 1 kilometre of un-interrupted views of 28,sort of like the full length view you can get of 6R at MAN.They haven’t finished yet so i’ll keep everyone up to date when it’s finished.

Excellent shots mate!
I much prefer it when 28 is in use personally, but each to their own. DUB is good for a days photography! I’ll be passing through DUB at least 4 times this summer!
You’re right about 28 I think, everything is that much closer. It was a nice change to see 16 in use, but a lot of the stuff rotates too early. Although it was nice to be able to get some departure shots without the top of a damn fence in every single one. 😉
There was a couple of arrivals on r/w 10 that day too, all we needed was for 34 to have been used briefly and we would of had seen all 4 runways at DUB in use in one day. 😉

Thanks for all the comments so far.
Brilliant photos again, that fence really is terrible.
It sure is! I never went to DUB when the old fence was still up, which is a shame because this new one must be almost twice as tall!

You know you’re at DUB when your view is obstructed by a passing truck. 😉
That’s all, hope I didn’t bore you all too much! 🙂

Runway 16 in use!
Firefighters must have got bored again. 😉
Not a great photo, but I thought I’d show it because this aircraft when tech later on, returned to stand after taxiiing out and never moved again while we were there.
