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.

After an 9.5 hour flight from Windhoek with Air Namibia's A340-300 V5-NME, I spent a little time at FRA's Spotting deck!
Most interesting seen that day was: A380, 748I, 748F (No pic), 787 and of course the Belavian Tupolev Tu154!

You were lucky with the Tu154...... due to its noise-category it should never have received landing-permission during the weekend, which was only discovered when it was already there. :roll:

For that reason the outbound flight was delayed until today, the 6th.
