Stansted 28-10-2014 afternoon/evening
Posted: Tue Oct 28, 2014 9:20 pm
I made a briefish visit to Stansted this afternoon to catch the Nordic Global MD11 as I hadnt got a pic of one and managed a few other photos while I was there, here's a selection:
firstly a couple of the Nordic Global MD-11, OH-NGB, a very uninspiring colour scheme

and as it climbed away towards the setting sun it gave about the best possible picture of an all white aircraft that I could manage:

a Cargolux B747-8F, LX-VCV arrived as well (there was another due after dark):

Etihad Regional Saab about to touch down (these replaced the Air Berlin flights about 3 months ago now)
8829 HB-IYI SF2000 Etihad regional by sickbag_andy, on Flickr
and as it prepared to leave the runway

one that might have been okay for this month's SPOTM:

And sometimes it just doesn't work out for you! There was an An124 parked over by the diamond hangar, I had been told it wasnt in a good position for photos and that was very true indeed, this was the view from the mound

then I went off to a spot on the approach to try out some sunset shots:

and another of the same MD-11 right into sun and just above the tree line:

then a Ryanair 737 in the same position after the sun had dropped below the horizon:

then I looked up and saw this about to happen, a Ryanair B737 with the dark (and light) side of the moon, which reminds me the new floyd album is out in 2 weeks, can't wait

that's pretty much all of them, there are a few more in my flickR album but only a few: https://www.flickr.com/photos/125470545 ... 690720383/
