Civilian Aviation

Seven shots taken from my room at the beginning of a weekend visit to The Renaissance Hotel

B-6516


My first sight of a 787


G-VNYC looking smart in the last rays of the longest day.


A large "Boy from Brasil"


A very nice scheme


EZ-A006 beats the queue with an intersection departure


The "Retro Italian" blasts off down 27 Right


Will post later with more from later in my stay

Nice shots

Very nice mix of shots. Particularly like the Alitalia paint scheme, brings back some old memories

Another big-up for that Alitalia, lovely panning, lovely scheme! The United 787 is probably the best looking scheme on that aircraft yet! Good set!

Lovely shots bat !

Just one question.... what room number ?

Mark

Thanks for taking time to post folks

Mark - it was the top (3rd floor) second room from the very end (west) 3183 if I remember correctly.

I have stayed there 4 or 5 times over the years - usually to catch early morning flights when a same day shuttle connection isn't possible, and each time a top floor room has always given a good view
(provided rain isn't beating against the window that is)

Good to see a different viewpoint. Very nice set of pictures.
