South Korea Spotting

Recommended Posts

Hi,all :lol:

 

I went spotting to South Korea on 10th and 11th,Jul.

Before my trip,I heard that South Korea is severe to take photos :(

However,the situation of South Korea has changed now and I could enjoy spotting both days :D

 

10th Jul,I went to GMP in the morning :)

A lot of LCC of South Korea are there :good:

Hi Junichi San,

 

What do you mean "severe" in taking photo? Is it security very tight or location not favorable. Thanks.

 

Nice pictures by the way. Love the Eastar Air B736.

Suzuki-san,

 

Beautiful! Eastar Jet did fly to KCH on charter basis end of last year i think;I do agree with you,the B736 is definitely a rare one,since we could only see the B733,734,735,737,738 and 739ERs in Asia!

 

BTW,where did you snap the photos;Incheon,Gimpo or Busan?

Yeah,I heard the security of Korea airport is very tight ;)

But the situation had changed because I had never saw the security in both airport during airplane spotting B)

The local spotters had said same things,too :)

Yes :p I had been supproted by local spotters on Saturday spotting session :good:

They took me to the spotting point by car at GMP and ICN :D

I really appreciate to them with their big help!!!

 

BTW,where did you snap the photos;Incheon,Gimpo or Busan?

All photos were taken at Gimpo(GMP) :)

 

After GMP spotting,I moved to ICN to catch the AN-12 of SAT airlines.

But he passed far side from our position... :sorry:

The SAT An-12 still going strong! She's definitely operating flight from Sakhalin.

Thanks a lot for sharing these Korean pictures; I, myself, transitted thru ICN last February and liked the airport and spotted airlines very much too !!!

 

Needless to say, 7733 was my plane for the ICN-SGN flight, departing from the very same gate (as far as I can see)... :pardon:

Hi. It has been a long time again ^_^

 

Finally, my town has entered the rainy season till the end of next month... :(

My spotting day in Japan is going to stop due to rain until the rainy season end...maybe :p

 

By the way, I went to South Korea last week, and I enjoyed spotting with South Korea spotting members :D

Both 2 & 3 June were fine day for spotting, and I could get a lot of special stuffs for me!

Sorry the small images again, but I will share them.

Nice pictures!! Some nice planes! I think you must be really really happy with the ATI Diesel 8 since there are retiring them this year

Thank you, Cornelis san :lol:

 

Yes!!! I and other Korean spotters were happy to see the DC-8 in ICN!

Incidentally, DC-8 departed to Yokota AFB in Japan on that day :p

 

 

 

Very nice collection you got from Korea, Suzuki san! :)

Well done! :clapping:

Yeah, thanks!

My spotting trip to South Korea was really good :good:
