The ‘Jazz’ shots were outstanding!

Hi Martin,
Had a hell of a time extracting the CRJ from my lens :p :dev2:

Hello Martin…greetings from down under and welcome to the forum!!

Thank you Steve. I am delighted to be here and even more delighted to see the forum is using VBulletin. The safest most user friendly board around.

Hello Martin…greetings from down under and welcome to the forum!!

Greetings everyone,

This is my first post… remember when you had yours?

Indeed a good freezing time was had by myself and Kevin hanging around airport perimeter fences here in Canada… and not one OPP to be seen.

I am formerly from Dunlop in Ayrshire, emigrated to the busier aviation climes of Toronto Canada in 1988. I currently reside 120 miles west in a City called London. Been home to Ayrshire twice in the last two years and will return again in May of this year.

Amidst the plethora of images I acquired with Kevin on that chilly Saturday, please find attached the most humourous of the days events.

Kevin has tremendous equipment for an acknowledged amateur. His 100-400 ILS lens however is so large that it can fit the body of an CRJ 100ER right inside the lens barrel. Here’s a photo to prove it.

Nice to be here. Hopefully I can bring you some different colour from this side of the Atlantic.

Cheers.

Cousin. aka Martin. :diablo:

Fantastic selection there, Kevin!!!!

Thanks Tom,
Just a pitty we dont get as many pictures from YYZ as it has a great selction of aircraft,, thought the limited vantage points and the cold in winter are the main downside to YYZ
You never know a visit next year might be on the cards, but i think it will be in the summer
Kevin (nearly defrosted ) 😮 😮

Well done for braving the very cold weather! Great shots!:D

A good collection there Kev, doesn’t the Olympic livery make the A340 look like an old 707 though…?

And are Air Canada ever going to get round to painting their whole fleet in the new ‘spearmint’ livery or have they decided just do do the tails for now ?

Thanks Guys ,
Steve it was a bit warmer than the rest of the week -10 , with a wind chill of
-20:eek: 😮

Kevin

Most excellent shots…it’s nice to see another part of the world…it looks bloody cold!!

Great shots Kevin, I like the look of the Canada Jazz CRJ700.
