Some photos taken over the past couple of weekends-cloud cover permitting ;)
 
Two C-17`s taken last weekend approx 10mins apart.Heavily cropped as they were a good distance from me sorry for the rubbish quality :-[ -They were NE of BFS.Possibly over Larne direction.
 
Other pic is American Airlines B777 I think.

Dave I think the pilot has spotted you and is trying to duck into cover :) Nice catch all the same.

Steve what time and where did you catch the A380?

Casper, I spotted it using http://www.flightradar24.com/

The photos were taken on 10/11/2010, 0926hrs, the A-380 was spotted flying directly over (my house) Carryduff, and according to flightradar, was flying from the U.S. to France.

Steve.

Took these last Saturday morning between 0740 and 0830;aircraft were approx 15 miles south of my position (Aldergrove) and it was VERY cold so quality is poor.

Even being so far away there's still alot of clarity in them. Certainly seeing more than I am. Can't remember the last time I pointed my camera at the skies :(

Slightly better quality with these as the light improved.
