Forum rules
ImageThis is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post.
In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).

Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.

Hannover 26-07-2008

Post by EC »

The weather forecast for Hannover was very good for yesterday and indeed we had a day with almost complete blue skies.

Hannover is know for its Russian flights during the summer season. in the late nineties up to 12 Tu154's could be seen on a Saturday.
These numbers have somewhat been reduced recently and the equipment has been replaced by Boeings and Airbuses
with a number of airlines but still Hannover is worth a visit in the summer.

This was seen Saturday the 26th

Windrose, the other side has titles but my AF went to macro mode and I didn't get a picture of it as it taxied for departure, GRRR.

The afternoon taxiway is very close, an A320 side on just fits a 28mm lens.
To give an idea of the spotting locations in the morning, here is my partner in crime in action:

Very nice, thanks for sharing. Nice to see something different then KLM, from other airports. Seems that Hannover is still a nice field to go.
