    What a great set of exotica. A great trip that and you were very lucky with the weather which is often awful.

    I think they are wonderful Darren. Love Hong Kong – I was there in October 2012. In the two days saw more exotica than any other airport. Only problem with that place is to get optimum photos you need a bit of luck with weather and atmosphere. The planes are just a little bit too far away for the killer shot although you have done some great work here. We never got chance to go on Skydeck as they were landing on 07s but we got ferry to Sha Lo Wan and got landing shots and taxi / departure shots. Most of my shots at Hong Kong are on the ground as a result. I notice you got a lot of sharkleted Airbus’ – they look so smart. An airport which is a notch up in terms of vantage points and photo quality is Beijing. Magnificent airport and although variety is less it’s still great. Don’t mention the Silkway. I missed that at Bourgas in 2012. Left the spot for lunch then came back 30 mins later and saw it parked up with no chance of a shot of it 🙁 You were lucky with that as it’s a night flight I think.

    Ooh China Cargo 757F – very nice indeed. Did you get to Sha Lo Wan for 07 departures ?

    A national disgrace that beauty is no longer flying. The most elegant aircraft ever built IMHO.

    The shots, angles and backgrounds are great. Love the Travel Service shot. Must give Glasgow a visit some time. Last time I was there was around 1992 when there was a United 767, American 767 and Northwest DC-10 parked alongside each other.

    Thanks ! Worse weather is yet to come at Domodedovo. Got another almighty soaking for the cause !
    A week in sunny Antalya in June next year will hopefully make up it.

    Only saw three TU-154s – all at Vnukovo. 2x Russian State (one in Rossiya colours, the plain ex Aeroflot) and a UTair in mostly blank scheme. The glory days have gone ! Didn’t visit any museums.

    Cheers Glen. Well lo and behold the sun made an appearance for 30 minutes. Lots of Aeroflot as to be expected…

    Very nice selection, and particularly surprised to see a UT Air ‘134 in there. I thought all commercial Tu-134s had been grounded by Putin, with ony a private and military jets still allowed to fly.

    Also, WTH did you do to that Red Wings shot? 😉

    Ha ha ! Erm I “mowed the lawn”. There was a horrible orange netting which ruined the frame so I removed it (in haste I must add).

    A rainy morning by the fence. Took a few shots then had to give up as the weather was getting worse…managed a half decent ground shot of the Red Wings TU-204. The location we took this shot is only a few yards from where the Red Wings TU-204 overshot the runway at Christmas 2012…

    Cheers folks. Look at this gear Putin brought in…..the first was the standard Rossiya flight I think but the rest were all government aircraft…this lot arrived in a short space of time. Pity the weather still was poor…
