tsentsan 0 Report post Posted July 25, 2008 Afternoon arrivals no good for terminal spotting, esp when they use 25 (i think its 25), all backlit. Morning would be fantastic though. When we departed, I counted no less than 5 silver bullets, 1 EK cargo, 1 Asiana cargo on the cargo ramp.. DROOL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mid of summer the sunset will go a bit northwest but near to autumn, the sunset goes a bit southwest, so it really depends. HKG's cargo ramp always parks will lots of freighters, I don't know why, by the way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
