Apparently it brought folk in but left empty, came in from St Petersburg, thats all I know 😮

Great shots robert,what spot did you got to in FRA,isn’t their deck closed now?

Aye the viewing terrace is shut, but I had a hire car and planted myself down the 07R + 07L end, first time taking pics at FRA, know my way round now though, some cracking spots for viewing. Might put together a wee guide for the forum for any folk contemplating a visit etc 🙂

Dunno how regular they are but it was cleared by ATC to Madrid

Really like the 5th shot! 🙂 Looks like a good spot at the end of the runway!

If I could afford a decent lense the it would be an excellent spot !! Although its very exposed in cold weather and also theres a lot of traffic noise, ok for 20 mins then move on!!

Hi guys,

Just having a read through the thread. Including the two engined VC-10. Anyway, if Robert doesn’t mind me sharing his thread I did see another unident plane flying over EDI, it was on Tuesday (25th April) and the thing that caught my eye was it had three engines, well three trails at least. It was flying in a very definite North-West direction probably headed for the Atlantic Ocean. My first thought was NW DC-10 but im unsure. I have never seen a three engined plane over EDI before so I am just curious. Sorry no pics it was spotted on my way back from that wonderful place they call SCHOOL!!!!!

NW DC10’s sometimes route over EDI , also theres the odd freighter, but I agree 3 engined trails arevery rare now! (Better not forget RAF Tristars in this as well)

Well I got there just before 3!!! We werent talking were we? (LOL)

Must have just missed you, last pic i took was a KLM fokker taking -off @15.00

How did you find that info 😮

At first I was going to say FAT then i thought they don’t fly over here and they have a red underneath (what plonker i am 😮 )

James

went to Flynordic website, looked up where they fly to, DUB was about the only geographical place they it could have been going, and the timetable confirmed it 😮
