My first spotting trip to ENGM!

As the title says, I was at ENGM/OSL today, mainly it was because my brother and sister was going to visit my second sister that lives in Barcelona, but my mom and I also visited a new spotting place. Not so good for pictures, but good for viewing the action! I only wish we had brought chairs and that the weather was better... well, at least we had it all for ourselves!

Note: We saw many more aircraft except the ones photographed, but I didn't capture them. For example, we also saw the Star Alliance SAS MD-80 taking off :D. It was so god dang noisy compared to the B737s that took off all the time. (And very much noisier than the Aeroflot A319 that also took off :O) but we had a blast.

PS: Again, sorry for the black dot! I seriously need to take my camera to some cleaner.

SAS 73x taking off. This was before I found the optimum way to use my camera.

Norwegian B738 taxiing to the runway. I think this was the plane that held my brother and sister.

Finally, a good setting! SAS 73x taking off before my sister and brother's B738.

There they go! *Waves*

Sorry for poor quality.. i'm not the ultimate photographer yet!

PS: ENGM sure is 737 heaven (or hell..) I only saw ONE MD-80 (the SA SAS one), ONE A330 (MyTravel) and ONE B752 (Continental).
Oh yeah.. and a UPS B763 and what looked like a DHL A306 on the cargo ramp. And some GA. And some weird looking B737 in a foreign livery.

Cheese. Variation. (I'm hoping to see the Thai A345

Jordan: It was kinda brown-greyish with stripes.. it's hard to explain how it looked. Very special though.

Richard: Hell yeah :P I'm using a 7.2 mp digital Olympus m 720 SW. (Shock+Waterproof.) Not the greatest camera, but I like it.
