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.

Paris-Charles de Gaulle 02-05-2009 (PHOTO HEAVY!)

Post by LifelinerOne »

The next day started early and again at the mound.

Firstly Ehtiopian:

Image

Always great to see this airline:

Image

Head-on shot of Air Mauritius:

Image

Unfortunately the same B777-300ER of Air Canada:

Image

A lot of flights of Lotus this day:

Image

And AMC:

Image

Close-up of Air France Jumbo:

Image

And the retro Airbus:

Image

Air Cairo was also present with a lot of flights:

Image

Diffrent angle on this A321 of Alitalia:

Image

Air Europa:

Image

Always nice:

Image

Nice colors for Azerbaijan:

Image

I really like those wingletted B757's:

Image

Nouvelair also has A321's:

Image

Nothing beats a bare metal fuselage:

Image

Blue Air Fokker 100:

Image

Blue Air MD-83:

Image

Because the weather was getting a little bad, I decided to leave to Orly and Le Bourget (new topics will follow soon!). When coming back, I returned to my landing spot at the south side of the airport.

Embraer 170 of Air France:

Image

Nice surprises of Egyptair:

Image

Image

Again two TAM A330's:

Image

Image

And a looooong JAL:

Image

After this plane, I decided to move to a spot in the approach for the northern runways, because I was missing al the fun (ANA B747-400, Air India A330 :(). I found myself a nice parkingspot in the village Le Mesnil Amelot, near the Comfort Inn Hotel at a parking lot for busses and trucks. Nobody bothered me there, although I was questioned again on the south side of the airport by the Gendarmerie. Once again, the permit was usefull.

Anyway, weather was getting worse, but I got two FedEx planes:

Image

Image

A nice SATA A320:

Image

And as last a Kuwait A300:

Image

As said, when I have time I will upload new pictures for Orly and Le Bourget for 02-05-2009.

Comments are more than welcome!

Cheers!
