Title: Spotting Trip 09.03.2012-11.03.2012

Good Evening,

I was planning a spotting trip for the weekend from the 09th march to the 11th March 2012, but don't know where. MAN, LHR/LCY, AMS would be possible for example. Someone who has an idea where to go? Somebody who wants to go with me? :)

Henrik

Too short notice and I'm working.  :angel:  I'm amazed at how much you want to travel considering you live on the doorstep of Europe's third largest airport! Frankfurt rocks by the way!  ;)

Oh come on Dave! Well you get bored after a while, because you see the same stuff all day :P the planes are all departing right outside my window, and it's really like 'Oh there's an 380 again!' 'Really? ok... ' ;D  I hope you to get some free days mate ;)

I know what you men Henrik, same old same old; there goes another Easyjet A320 or Flybe Dash 8. An A380 I wish!!!

lol Henrik, I'm all spotted out now after the past month.  ;D
 
If you get bored by A380's Henrik, you'll be disappointed what the Uk has to offer. Belfast has two airports and only one has a decent photography place (BHD) and that's only up until 2pm. And the traffic is pathetic compared to what you'll be used to.  ;)  Give me some Lufthansa 747's and A340's anyday. I havn't photographed at either Belfast airport for well over a year now.  :-[
 
I'd love to return to Frankfurt when Lufthansa take delivery of some of those lovely new 747-8I's.  :)

Well but you at least get some different colours sometimes :D And I don't like FRA's angles and background most of the time.. Heathrow always seems to be great, always love to be there. Someone who wants to join to Heathrow? :)
