    I'm reckon I saw it approaching over Howth Sound yesterday late afternoon. (I've a great view from Howth all the way down to the airport) I reckoned it looked unusual - dark with four engines, a few extra 'bits' and thicker than usual body - and thought about checking online but dismissed it as probably being cargo or other private and continued my business without bothering to get binoculars out.

    i was in schipol at the weekend, my camera was in my luggage arriveing and dead battery's on departure. got a great view of everything on arrival because we drove around the entire airport! we came in on 36C and there was a Lufthansa a320 or a321 landing on 36R at the same time as us. a very rare sight when your a passenger to see another plane landing next to ya.

    i got up close to:

    KLM: A330, DC-10, 747, 777 and KLM Cargo 747

    Singapore: 747 cargo, 777

    Emirates: 747 cargo

    Cathay pacific: 747

    China Airlines: 747

    NCA Cargo: 747

    Northwest: a330, 747 cargo(old colours)

    Delta: A330

    malaysia: 747


    i have to say, it was a real treat as i was never up close to Heavy's before.

    F3-Tornados captured from a DC-10 while 1 of them sat at the end of either wing of the DC-10.
    They give a 200mile escort to all flights into the Falkland Islands.
    The most impressive bit was when they broke away from the DC-10.
    They performed a (roughly) 160-degree roll and just appeared to drop down towards earth at an unbelievable rate.
    Sure was glad that I had a window seat...

    Took these yesterday of a Hercules doing a package drop.
    Sorry the picture quality isn't great, I've never used a camera much before.
    I can put up some more Hercules shots if anyone would like to see them.
