Aviation News

A hazy and pretty cool day early 2010 in Hong Kong when I took this photo from the skydeck at Terminal 2. There's quite an interesting collection of airlines from all over the world in town. As every day at this major international airport!

The end of my spotting day on a chilly December late afternoon. Next to the usual suspects CPA, HDA, EVA and CAL are also KLM, AIC and QTR in town.

Busy apron scene including, in addition to the Air Algerie A330, a Cubana Il-96, L'Avion 757, Air Mediterranee A321, Karthago 737-300 and Royal Air Maroc 737-800. Photo taken from the east end of the Terminal Sud viewing gallery.

Three Oneworld airlines parked next to each other at Hong Kong's northern gates on a very hot and humid day. In the shadow of the Dragonair's stabilizer can be seen a technician (or maybe even a pilot) looking for some sun protection.

Seattle or Mumbai??

The mighty Kai Tak looking very sad in this shot taken about July/August 1998. A month or so after it closed. You can see just how limited the airport was for space.

The usual busy morning ramp at Terminal 3.

Overview of the closed airport Tempelhof which is now a public park...

The first day of spotting for me in 2010. There's nothing more you can ask for when you get such a wonderful atmospheric scene.

New Plymouth Terminal from airside.

Airfield overview of Te Kowhai (NZTE). This little airfield in the Waikato, not far from Hamilton is fast becoming a popular stop for private pilots in New Zealand.
