Post by: Angry Turnip on February 06, 2011, 01:36:05 PM: This is something that you need to be careful with-some airlines don`t mind people taking photos on board,but some are very strict about not allowing it.

Take off and landing shots seem to be the main bone of contention,as they sometimes consider a camera an electronic device,and therefore don`t allow their use during these phases.
Certainly I could understand if it was a cameraphone being used.

I took some video on a flight 5/2/2011 coming back from Rome to BFS over the Alps with Aer Lingus,but I asked first and was told it was OK.

Might upload it here if I can figure out how do it and if it`s any good :-\

I've been trying some long exposure shots during flights at night, I have thought up of a little plan to get such shots in the future, but it involves buying several lens hoods and cutting them up ;D

Basically the CAA want to discourage people using any sort of electrical device when an aircraft is taxiing,taking off,or landing.
The risks are a bit of an unknown quantity,but its meant to be in our best interests so I reckon it`s no great hardship.
Some airlines do not allow photography of any sort at any stage of a flight,if in doubt ask permission.

Post by: String on August 26, 2011, 09:42:58 AM: A few years ago the MYTHBUSTERS did an experiment on this sort of thing and no matter what the tried to do a mobile signal will not do anything to the electronics of an aircraft they did use all sorts of microwave tech but nothing happened. After a talk with the F.A.A they said it was just a precautionary measure. All electronic equipment has a shield around the cable.
Title: Re: Photos taken from aircraft
Post by: Blackbird on August 26, 2011, 06:31:18 PM: I do think the 'affecting the instruments' argument is a bit of waffle - but if anything were to happen during the take-off / landing and the aircraft crashed,then cameras,camcorders etc could become dangerous items flying around the cabin - possibly injuring other passengers in the process.
I would imagine that is why they request you put them away until the flight is safely airborne.

I was a member of the UAS for several years,when it was based at Langford and know the place pretty well-you are correct Aertank,they are indeed for viewing/photographing the test runs.

Great contrast between the foreground mechanical commerce and the distant financial commerce.

Funny you should mention that Smudge,when I first travelled to Newark with Mrs T,I was surprised just how much of a difference there seemed to be between NY and Newark-looking out over NYC was like looking at a movie set,it didn`t seem real,and New Jersey was just full of cranes and shipping containers.

You can see the line of the old ( lifted ) railway line really clearly in that photo, delinieated by trees and running in front of Scrabo hill and curving towards Comber.

To the north ( right ) the line curves towards the viewer and runs through the built-up area of the town between the two clusters of Bombardier factory units in the lower right. Every road it crosses used to have a bridge! All now destroyed except one off Victoria Avenue.

In relation to the pit area, yes, it is massive. You sometimes get the majority of the field (up to 42 cars) cutting in at the last second to pit on a yellow flag which can be chaos at times. Plenty of pit lane smashes too recently!!

You also have to love the flyovers that happen at every NASCAR race :D

Japanese B744 left foreground, Russian Il-96 at extreme right on the RAF side and a Merlin on the next apron behind it. Pair of Pumas between them?

Then a pair of Chinooks hiding on the grass beyond that. Look straight 'up' from them and there are a pair of Merlins apparently airborne.

Possibly the Russian T204 rear-quarter just beyond the TNT B734.

Cool!

Its proximity to the lagoon made me wonder how they built it, which led to:

(http://images.ksc.nasa.gov/photos/1964/low/KSC-64C-0276.gif) (http://images.ksc.nasa.gov/photos/1964/high/KSC-64C-0276.jpg)

http://www.nasa.gov/centers/kennedy/about/history/story/ch5_prt.htm

Quote
The foundation presented unusual problems. Tests showed a three-foot (one-meter) limestone shelf 118 feet (36 meters) below the surface. The layers below that were silt overlaying bedrock at a depth of 160 feet (49 meters). Core borings revealed petrified wood, carbon-dated to be 25,000 years old.

It was decided that the massive VAB would rest upon steel pipe pilings, 16 inches (41 centimeters) in diameter and 3/8 inch (10 millimeters) thick, driven into the limestone bedrock. The foundation contractor spent six months driving 4,225 pilings through the upper limestone layer. When the job was complete, 128 miles (206 kilometers) of steel pipe had been buried.

I have heard from quite a few people about the junction of Crumlin Road,Manse Road and Largy Road outside Crumlin that leads to Langford Lodge.
Several sightings have been made of WW2 US Troops guarding the railway bridge at the start of the Largy Road.

Not sure what to make of it,but I think it is interesting.

Blimey quite a catch there.

Looks like a pair of 747SPs of Las Vegas Sands Corp in the foreground, then three Janet 737s, then in the mid-distance a A345 of also of Sands.

Plus various 'small' types like Gulfstreams etc /me waves hand vaguely

Nice shots! Also a heli airborne over the runway in the second one.

The S-70s look like Sea Hawks ( tail wheel well forward ), not sure why the US Navy is so far inland though!
