Very nice. I caught a KLM MD-11 yesterday but the sun was too harsh and the photo wasn't great :(

Thanks Casper;I know exactly what you mean regarding the sun`s position.
 
Anything to the north of me or overhead is fine to photograph,but if aircraft are to the south of me,the sun makes photos very difficult and possibly dangerous with a zoom lens.
 
It doesn`t take much to damage your eyes,so anything to the south of me I tend to ignore now.
