LFPG Spotting Break

Recommended Posts

Hi,

Made a pit stop spotting break at CDG on my recent visit to India. I was blessed with some great springtime weather.

BTW, photography is prohibited at Paris airports and require permission from local law authorities. You will be checked out when spotting.

Please make sure to contact Kerozen.org (excellent group) for the proper procedures.

 

First sighting for me, and I like them looks of SA on 757....

With Air France head quarters in the back...

Norman, it works very well. When the police or ADP authorities come to check they have a list of official permits and will verify your name. Signs are posted all over on how its against the law to take photos and includes heavy Euro fines too! At all spots if you have ladder you can put next to fence and take photos. Responsible spotting rule applies but it was like being on ramp at each spot. All spots are within 50mm for 737!

21/3/15

Time to go home and I went straight to the gate early so I can spot some planes. Like the open view concept but when capturing some photos one of the guard spotted me and asked me to delete the photos.
"No no pictures, United have nothing to do with you"

So I didn't really delete all of it but 80% I delete caused he watching me but he didn't say delete all of it so ya :)

Didn't know that cannot take pictures of the planes
