Delwin A 0 Report post Posted January 22, 2006 Today I went spotting with Nick and Ignatius at a new location. Plenty of crosswind landings today.While pilots struggle to land in crosswinds, I struggle to get good shots in crosswinds, because I nearly 'flown' away by it too. As a result, most of my shots turned up blur When we about to arrive to the spot, a Fokker was about to touch down Then the C-130 arrived The rest of my C-130 was pretty bad though, nearly 'blown away' by the crosswinds Later, the DHT took off, heading to MKM This F50 was heading to PNK if I'm not mistaken, judging from the direction after takeoff Do you see anything strange with this 734? Then the AK 320 arrived Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pieter C. 5 Report post Posted January 22, 2006 Delwin, Is this 734 taxying like that, because of the strong crosswinds ? : reminds me how dogs walk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Weather wasn't the best, so we test our photography skills at bad light conditions hehe.. actually morning heavy rain lah, so when its sunny.. its already 330pm.. apa pun jadilah(anything will do).. as long as we click click planes I caught notti boy earlier today... morning before it rained.. guess its an almost empty flight?? This baby boeing seems normal at first.. but look carefully at the windows, it reads R R R R R mostly..optic illusion? Baby boeing MMM rotation shot.. Bad weather nose shots.. hehe.. Anyone can confirm who's captain and FO? A C130 came... seems boring.. until u see her on take off rolls.. On touch down, she's almost blown to the left (notice right wing pitched up) MGF also poses for us hehe..This one for u Pieter And like said before..C130 is a beauty at take off rolls..
