Xmas in Egypt.

Post by keithnewsome » Fri Dec 28, 2012 10:14 pm

I have just spent eight days over Christmas at Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt. The main reason for the journey was to accompany a colleague who regularly dives there !
But I thought it would be rude not to return with a few hundred photos of the movements at the local .....
A few of the locally registered aircraft and a few of, so many, visitors to start with.

Looks like some nice trade and what a great backdrop too. Hope you'll be posting a lot more.

As the other have said this looks like a great location!

I've yet to see a Dash7, such a great looking aircraft.

Cheers for posting :thumb:

Thanks Gents for those nice words, ikarus yes they don't like aviation photography at all ! these are all from within the Hilton complex, but even their security 'insisted' that I stop taking photos (after five days) :o
A few of the 'not so often seen' visitors ..... ruined by PhotoBucket it seems ??
