Sorry, no airliners... Just two of my most favourit sound machines photographed this week. The sun was shy though.
Barely anything beats the rumble of a Tornado in full burners.

Loved these litte Scooters ever since we were on exercise with them. Amazingly big sound for such a small aircraft.

Today with some sun. And it's an airliner, kind of...

Would have wished for the XL to arrive 15mins later, but I shouldn't complain as weather, time, location and my time budget rarely ever go together...

Amazing beyond words! Nice to see an artistic image of a very unusual looking plane.

Amazing beyond words! Nice to see an artistic image of a very unusual looking plane.

Thanks. One of those "must do" images I had in my head for years. While the timing wasn't 100% perfect - 15mins later would have been awesome - the weather was just perfect that day with high clouds and rapidly building ground fog for sunset.
We only get the Beluga maybe once a week and at totally random times. To see it just in time with an ok sunset azimut and these weather conditions is pure luck. I should add that we had dense fog all day long just a few miles west..
I'm so glad I made it as chances weren't big to ever x off this image from my list.

Let me add this one even though my lens was slightly long so that I clipped the tail.
I definitely prefer the artsy over the usual spotting stuff

And for those who are into helicopters...

The best looking A220 anywhere in the world.

VH-X4A leaving Melbourne Tullamarine on my last day there back in March when I was down there for the 2025 edition of the Avalon Airshow.
