Yup, two planes taking off in the space of 30 minutes. One A319 (thnx mic) and one cessna. It was very windy (to the point I couldn't hold the camera steady) But there was a cool an124 in which was over the other side of the airfield. sadly the sun was right infront of me for the pics of it so they are not too good. But a great spotting point on a busier day.
