Back on the ''Perch'' (Pic Heavy)
« on: September 12, 2010, 07:03:41 PM »
With blues skys this morning I decided to head over to the airport for a few hours.
When I got there conditions were not great with a haze spoiling the shooting..
However I did manage to spend a while on ''Daves perch''  ;D
Heres a few of the better shots from the ''perch''

American Airlines Boeing 757-223


Onur Air Airbus A321-231


Transavia boeing 737-800


This EasyJet A319 was diverted after declaring a PAN PAN  due to a medical emergency on board
 EasyJet Airline Airbus A319-111


Titan Airways Boeing 737-3L9(QC)


Atlantic Airlines Boeing 737
This cargo 737 specialises in moving Horses


SATA International Airbus A320-232


Delta Air Lines 767-400ER


Then I decided to head over to the other side and catch some departures from the Barrier.











Hope you didnt mind all the pics, But Im catching up on a lot of missed time spotting... ;D

What's the idea behind the 'OneWorld' on the first American Airlines?

 ;D  Nice to see the perch still in good use! Some nice catches there, I suppose the horsie mover see's regular action at Dublin due to all the horse racing near by. If the weathers good in the next few weeks, I'll be heading down to dublin for the day so be ware!  ;)
 
Casper, The ONE WORLD titles are there to advertise that they're apart of the One World Alliance of airlines. Exactly the same thing as the Star Alliance logo aircraft, as well as the Sky Team Alliance. All three airline Alliances have logo aircraft, with the Sky team logo jets probably the best looking in my eyes.  :)

Nice selection of aircraft and great photos. Always nice to catch something different such as the Blue Wings and Euro Cypria. I assume Dublin had wonderful weather today like Belfast had?

Thanks for the kind comments guys, Dave the weather was nice and sunny  8)    but it was cold and gloves and warm hats were the order of the day...
As for the Blue Wings arrival that was just pure luck  ;D   But with the maintenance facility at Dublin getting a good bit of work there are more unusual arrivals/departures nearly every week.
