A good collection there Kevin, I couldn’t tell you the last time I went out snapping at GLA or elsewhere. Just been toooooo busy at work ! 😮
Cheers Ren
Got mY self new toys to play with , so need some practice as Im soon off on my travels
Kevin
Looking at the fares they look quite reasonable from £100 upwards, might be worth a small trip some time
Kevin
Looking out my water-wings 🙂 :p
Flights were being delayed into LHR due to Bad weather, One of BMI’s 320 out of Glasgow was asking why they had a slot into the row and the answer was due to Severe Thunderstorms
Kevin
Sounds like Central wings
Kevin
Nice shots there! What do you think of the 100-400?, im considering getting one depending what happens with my Bigma. I think the contrail your not sure about is Air Canada o/c.
had a look at the original Raw image, and you are correct ACA A330, could make out the red of the maple leaf

Hi RingwaySam,The lens is worth every penny ,the only down side is you will have to work out and build some muscle in you’re left arm , or get a good tripod,its a bit heavier than my 75-300mm lens ,but as you can see the quality is brilliant
As for the A330,im going to have a look at the original Raw image and see if i can magnify it a bit more and check SBS and Acars logs
Kevin
Yeah same here. What airline is EIN? the A330 I would say Air Luxor.
James
Aer Lingus, It has a Green edge it to with the grey underside ( noticed this when fully zoomed in on the image)
Guess what has turned up at Glasgow , just after the light had faded Yep G-CPEM Blue Peter (Sods Law)
Grate pictures there Robert, captured the Delta on overflight at Glasgow this morning
Kevin
Brilliant shots Kevin like the KLM Cityhopper F100. I thought they said it would go back into normal KLC colours a year ago Looks like its the same as the Blue peter BA 757 popluar so they kept it like that.
James
Cheers Guys , has been grate fun playing with the Kit
The Fokker I saw last year in the white Scheme, so its a change from their Usual scheme , hope BA keep the Blue Peter for a while , so I can get a shot with the new kit 🙂
Kevin
The overflights
Here is a selection of the overflights from this morning,
UAL B777 In new colour Scheme
UAL 777 old Colours
Martinair 767
KLM 744
KLM A330
Not quite sure what this one is but I think it might be a EIN A330
DLH744
Delta 767 out of Edinburgh
C17 over the Gow
Hi Tartan
Had a look around and the A330 looks like it’s a Turkish one,Kenya is a all boeing fleet
Some good shot there,
The 300-400 should be going , but 500,s will be staying
The second one I think is AAL 777, these are very common over Glasgow , as you have them coming from LHR , LGW and the rest of Europe the reason it looks grey is the angle that you are looking at the picture, you can not make out the top half of the fusalage .Unless you have a callsign , it wiil be very hard to Id this one
ACARS – Digital data link Full name is Aircraft Communications Addressing and Reporting System ,if you do a google search you will find all the answers you need
Talking to some one at Pik this Afternoon and he mentioned a Aero Mexico passing over Glasgow , so that could be the first One,
second one , Possibly a AAl , which can look like jordanain at High levels , between 1000and 1200 there are no jordaian showing on acars
4 AAL
3 AFR
3 UAL
1 DHL
1 ACA
1 VIR
