Remarks: A lot going on in this image. The main subject is the A310 from Yemenia which is taxiing by the viewing terrace. In the foreground we have the wing and the winglet off a Lufthansa 747-400 and in the background we have a USAirways A330-300 touching down on German soil after a long trip from Charlotte! It's all go at Frankfurt today! (1dmkii/28-135IS)
Remarks: The big beasty pulls into the gate at snowy Frankfurt! In the background a lot of the other heavies can be seen including....AC A330/SQ 744/CX 744/Condor 767/Royal Brunei 767 and lots of LH stuff! (1dmkii/28-135IS)
Remarks: The mighty 777-2H6ER taxis past the viewing deck here at FRA to make its way to the active runway. This was Malaysian's very first 772 that they received! The smoke in the foreground is from the de-icing going on to an LH bird at the gate. In the background an Aeroflot has just landed and is making its way off the runway, while a Polar Air Cargo sits in the background at the Cargo ramp! (1dmkii/28-135IS)
Remarks: Standing on the viewing deck, freezing your butt off and getting snowballs thrown at you is all part of the fun in this hobby! I did manage to take 2mins to snap this lufty A343 as it taxiied past! It looks like this one has escaped the de icers! (1dmkii/120-300F2.8EX)
Remarks: A very smokey start from this Airbus on this cold morning in Germany. This sort of start is more commonly seen at motor races rather than airports. (1dmkii/281-135IS)
Remarks: Lufthansa A343 gets pushed back through the sludgey snow that is lying on the ground here at FRA today! I love this angle! (1dmkii/120-300F2.8EX)
Remarks: Lufthansa A300 holds on the taxi way before it comes into the gate here at Frankfurt. The snow has gone and the sun is shining! What a lovely way to end a great day shooting! (1dmkii/120-300F2.8EX)
Remarks: Lufty 744 gets towed in to stand after arriving on a snowy and wet Saturday morning in Germany! There is something about a 744 from this angle that just makes it look so menacing! (1dmkii/120-300F2.8EX)
Remarks: "Sachsen Anhalt" gets pushed back from the gate to begin a long flight somewhere warmer than here most likely! The snow gives a very monochromatic look to the images, the bright jacket of the rampworker brings a bit of color to the image! (1dmkii/120-300F2.8EX)
