Firstly thankyou for the positive comments, much appreciated, and in answer to the questions…
bhx spotter – the Lufthansa Mad Dog came in at about 9:15/9:30, can’t remember to be sure but it was earlier than usual.
kev35 – They were taken at Crash gate 3, at the end of Diseworth Lane/Road, the police call by fairly regularly but as long as people are parked sensibly – i.e. not in front of the gates – then they don’t bother anyone.
wannabe pilot – Photography from Crash gate 3 can be difficult during the day and well into early evening due to the position of the sun, time wise its pretty hit and miss at EMA although Saturday is probably the quietest day.
