Hola, Hello, Buenos Dias, Daag, Servus,

just a few pics from yesterday... the occasion was a little :'( as it was LX-ICV (B747-428F - yep, the very first one 8) ) on a maintenance acceptance flight for UPS...

anyway, there was also an "golden oldie" blasting through the sky for about 4-5 hours as "NATO17" - doing touch&goes on RWY24

Really nice photos Norbert. You must have a good camera. How far away were you?

Hello Jeroen,

thanks

the CAM is a Canon 30D and the lense was a 100-400mm L IS USM one 8)

"Distance to target" less than a kilometer :rofl:

"Distance to target" less than a kilometer :rofl:

So you think I can do the same with my cellphone camera? :lol:

I just wondered why you took pictures of "half" aircraft only. Have a look at this post http://www.air-child.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=143#p2403 because of cropped images.

Peter,

you can always try your cellphone camera... and post the results.. you may wish to reduce the distance by a factor of 10 to make them look somewhat good

Thanks for the hint with (imgr)... now they all show up nicely 8) :rofl:
