Plane spotting

philliptan · 26th November 2005

Went to the airport today to shoot some planes (with a canon of course, not a cannon)...

It was a gloomy day so the pics didn't turn out too fantastic.

Here's some of the better ones (with a rare one in tow)

Emirates' B777 with special Germany World Cup 2006 stickers (A6-EMV B777-300)

Lovely 4-engined bird from SriLankan (4R-ADB A340-300)

Thai Airways' A300 in the new colours (HS-TAM A300B4-600R)

Good ol' Tiger Airways' numero uno aircraft (9V-TAA A320-200)

... and the rare visitor... a B767 from Thomsonfly (G-BRIG Boeing 767-200)

woo...love your BY....Tiger is nice too....TG was backlit....sad...

Thanks, Damien!

Ya, the only two shots that are nice are the two that had a bit of sunlight in. It was a very bad day for shooting metal birds.

I'm just glad that the BY 762 came in during a short period of sunshine!

Waaa...that thomsonfly 767 is a rare catch in sg. This is the first time I see a 767-200 with 2 overwing hatches on each side.
