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.

ESSA, Arlanda Spottersday 30/10/08

Post by Flygvapnet_Viggen »

Hej hej,

Last Thursday there was a day of spotting at Arlanda, with the Swedish G-Kraft aviation society. We were with around 10 people and started at 7am. First up was the approach at rwy 01R. It was cold and foggy so there was a lot of condensation and contrails. Though it was overcasted, the sunrise gave a nice colour in the sky.

It remained grey and cold the rest of the day, so it became a bad-weather shoot. With quite nice results actually! Before lunch the take-off at rwy 01L and later rwy 08 was also visited.

I'd rather depict atmosphere and the 'heat of the moment' making a catchy photo than to reflect the real situation and real colours showing a boring photo.

Tjäna,

Excellent with Pics from good old Arlanda. A shame it was a dull day now that you were all there.

Do you by any chance have an idea of how many Sterling sit upthere in total and the rego´s?

We have 11 at CPH, 2 at Aalborg and 4 at Billund!
