Stansted 7-1-2018, a couple of bankers

Post by andygolfer » Sun Jan 07, 2018 2:13 pm

Nice bright skies this morning tempted me to a brief visit to footpaths east of Stansted to try some new locations for departure shots- still can't nail the perfect location! It was sunny but also extremely cold so I didn't hang around very long.....

this Cargolux didn't oblige with a nice banking angle at all, made a very shallow turn :mad:

but this Ryanair did a bit better...

and this one at a different location did better still, I think I know which of the two spots I shall try again now :)

The banking ones are good but the first is still a 747 :D

thanks guys

A 747 looks good from any angle but a banker is just perfect, one day I will find the perfect spot at STN - getting close now.

Nice set once again Andy ! ... Have to agree with others the 747 looks 'majestic' holding it's head up with pride !
