Great photos of an aircraft I'm yet to see. Any ideas on flight path?

I really want some decent photos of this, I only have photos from a Paris airshow but didn't have a wide enough lens so got the whole middle section :lol:

Superb photos of yours though!

Lucky enough to see it land at Manchester quite a few years back, very impressive! Great photos!

Seen it at East Mids twice, once in the old colours and once in the new! :tongue:

The first time was incredible because I was stood on top of the grass bank at the DHL end and it took off and was no more than 50ft above my head as it went over me - I remember the noise getting louder and louder and thinking how much louder it was going to get!

By the way, that head on shot is a corker!!!!

I remember seeing it take off from EMA on a glorious late autumn morning, a few years ago. The air was gin-clear, and though it never deviated from the runway heading, we could still see the '225 nearly 15 minutes later! :cool:

Does it show itself on FR24? It might be worth a look this evening. :question:
And as the smart ship grew,
In stature, grace and hue,
In shadowy silent distance grew the iceberg too....

Been there, done that...

Sometimes being an "old git" has its advantages.

Apologies for the quality. Shot at Farnborough using a shoulder-mounted full-size VHS camcorder 20-odd years ago and eventually copied to DVD (and then mangled by Photobucket....).
nothing is confirmed at a show until its u/c hits the tarmac or it is running in for its display.....

Many thanks for that, I'd forgotten just how jaw-dropping that display was. :shock: :clap: We've seen 737s shown off with less gusto than that!

(Of course I was very young at the time! :dummy: :lol: )


adamp89: absolutely correct on both counts! :smile:

Great set, thanks for sharing...
