Filton Visitors

[Craig.]

Well i decided to take my camera with me today on a trip through filton, and surprisingly its was packed with planes, because we were going through fast i could only get a few shots. but here they are
tail of one of 2 747's in there


private 767 previously owned by britania from the looks of the paint scheme


2 747's side by side


closer, these things are huge


notice anything strange?


pleanty of choppers flying round to today.


there was also a charter 757 usually housed at bristol and a saab 340 sadly to short a time to get them all. There was also concorde but its been moved to the far side well out of zoom range, and the second one ever built in a sorry state waiting to be moved and rebuilt.

Better that is looses a couple of engines than goes to Liverpool and ends up on four piles of bricks minus its U/C

Pretty good shots from a moving vehicle there Craig. That camera of yours can't be at all bad either.

thank sir:). The camera is pretty good in lighting conditions like you see there, although taking the pics through glass gave those reflections. Its a little difficult to take pics in low lighting conditions with it though

Good Heavens Craig...you must like living dangerously?

Taking pictures while driving and then driving on the wrong side of the road also LOL

Great Shots

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug
