Remarks: 18° 2'18.32"N 63° 7'13.04"W, for those who don't know this place (-; One of my first photos at Maho Beach. ...and somewhat disappointing. But hey, it's a realy nice party of aviation enthusiast with nice caribbean music and a very enjoyable mojito in your hand. And latest at 4 o'clock all the cruiseship tourists are leaving with the "taxi to ship" and the beach is getting peaceful again. PJ-WIS is waiting for takeoff clearance very close to the fence.
Remarks: London Olympics 2012. This location is best known as 'The Mound' at Stansted, and just allows runway photos to be taken over the fence. This is the one of the most popular spotting locations at the airport, to the West of the airfield, best for photography after about 2pm. Stansted is mostly Ryanair or Easyjet these days, but every now and then you get a gem, as can be seen in this image. Today was the day after the Olympics opening ceremony, and thanks have to be passed to the police, security services and local spotters for establishing short-term sensible procedures to make it possible to enjoy the movements at the airport. Google Earth 51°53'22.08"N, 0°14'7.13"E - please remember to take your litter away with you though and act sensibly, don't spoil it for others.
Remarks: The last two OLT planes (D-AOLG/D-AFKF) parked at DRS are prepared for the fly out after bankruptcy of the airline - wheater perfectly matches the situation.
