Took some shots of the A380 from my bedroom window on Saturday morning, I know not many people like this bird calling it ugly etc

Great pictures, and I do like the 380, but there's  a prettier double-decker that's been flying for a long time now... the B-747.

Most probably it is the waste water from the galleys. A nice brown colour due to unused coffee etc being poured away. Most of the time it is dumped in the toilet, but if a toilet is not located next to the galley, the "girls" tend to just pour it away down the galley sink. They are not supposed to, but the do. I would imagine that the A380 is no different.

PS, Nice shots.

It could just be dirt thrown off the nosewheel: dirty water, molten rubber...

Cool shots, looks like your house is in an interesting location!  :o

What size harpoon did you need to catch that whale?

Nice catch, great shots!!

Call me ishmael, you must live somewhere fantastic if you're seeing a380s from Singapore with gear up and flaps down! Some second dimension or something, wow. :-/ :-/

very amazing photos, I especially enjoy the second to last one

Really like the two last ones.

Do you have the only house at the end of a runway some place?? Cool pics.

First time I saw the "Whale" was when I was at school and it was flying on approach to KLAX.


Looks ugly from the 6:00 o'clock position doesn't it?

Yes. Also from 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 o'clock.

Hardly the best lokking jet out there, but still quit impressive! Nice shots!  :)
