No airshows for me... so I do the garden thing...

[center]I'm a bit overwhelmed with all the quality shots lately, so I thought I'd drop in a bit less quality stuff that came over my head recently...

OO-TMD - a Cessna Reims 152 II ( what's up with that Reims part in the name? are these models build in France?)

Image

A ( and I take a deep breath) Piper PA-28RT-201 Arrow IV ( pant pant) ;D

Image

I'd say this is a big balloon... ;D

Image

During my stay in the Ardennes, this big boy thundered over my head...

Image

A Boeing 737... airline yet to be determined...

Good one. That's some camera you have there Kris.

( what's up with that Reims part in the name? are these models build in France?)

Cessna stopped manufacturing light aircraft in 1986 due to the number of ridiculous litigation claims. Production continued at the Reims Aviation factory under an agreement with Cessna signed in 1960. Many of the older single-engined Cessnas in Europe were built in France. These are named F172 etc. I believe most of them are fitted with the Rolls-Royce Continental engines. http://www.reims-aviation-industries.com/historyb.htm

Nice pics, theyve been coming over my garden all day today aswell.

The airline looks suspiciously like easyjet, the tail seems orange, as do the engines, a toughie though.
