Perth over the past few weeks

Post by wallace »

....has been dire for movements. Lots of miserable weather has kept a lot of aircraft in the hangars, however I have been lucky on a few occasions.
Kilo Mike seen taking off from 27/09, notice the pilot is wearing "foggles."

A visiting Eurostar from Longside. I have been breaking in a new camera so it's a long focal length and a shallow depth of field

Up in the Tower, I got lucky one evening as this Arrow landed on 03.

Shot through the Tower glass, as the HELIMED helicopter returned late and the first job was to refuel ready for tomorrow

The parachute clubs in Scotland have been using this Airvan while their aircraft are in various states of maintenance

Getting some aviation therapy towards the end of the day, long focal length and small aperture for the prop blur

I got caught on the hop as this visiting Agusta 109 lifted, the pilot of the Extra was a real gent allowing it to go first.

The view from my office as I was killing time before the night flying started. Another new toy, this time a fish eye lens and manual at that, just like in the good old days. AF doesn't half make things easy.

So there you go, one day it will be CAVOK and I'll be worrying about a full memory card. Aye right.

That’s a heck of a lovely view for an office WS. I’m quite jealous!
