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-ORY 21-07-2009

Post by LifelinerOne »

Despite the morning rush, I managed to get to Orly from Le Bourget in about 45 minutes. First to the main landing runway:

Kicking off with this great looking Embraer 195 of Air Europa:

Image

Ugly looking Beech 1900D:

Image

One of the nicest based airlines:

Image

Nice to see a wingletted B737-300:

Image

The spot also proved nice for take-off pictures as they changed runways.

Air Algerie racing off:

Image

Followed by another A330:

Image

After that I went to the park. Had a nice rest there in the grass in the sun (34 degrees celcius!), reading a book and sometimes snapping a picture.

CCM A319:

Image

Atlas Blue A321:

Image

Air Mediterranee:

Image

Another Air Algerie A330:

Image

Nice surprise was this White A310:

Image

A titleless A320 from Latvia:

Image

Air France new colors:

Image

Finally I catched the RAM Jumbo:

Image

After a short power nap I woke up and saw a strange tail parked at a gate at Terminal Sud. A white Airbus tail with a flag from an Arabic country. I couldn't figure it out, so I decided to drive to the spot from earlier this morning in order to catch it during take-off.

While waiting this magnificent B777-300ER of Air France took off:

Image

Followed by Open Skies:

Image

Next was the mysterious tailed Airbus and it proved to be the A340-200 SU-GGG of the Egyptian government :dance::

Image

And as last one, I shot this Corsair Jumbo:

Image

All in all a great stay at Orly!

Cheers! :wave:

I think the tail is the logo of FRAM, a travel agency.

Nice pictures, just a small note Air Caraibes is not based at Orly but Pointe Pitre is their homebase.
The Egyptian Government is indeed a nice surprise.
