The second day was more sunny! My first plan of the day was to go to the Aviation World shop. (www.aviatioworld.net) I went out with an MD-11 model plane and a book about severe weather. Winds always came from East, so I decided to go again on Dixie Rd for 05 approach.
When I arrived there, the wind shifted to the south, which gave arrivals on the 05 and 06 runway... Exactly the opposite of were I was !
Anyway, I was happy, because landing on the 05 are the most impressive! As these pictures show it.

Maybe a great surprise of my 3 days spotting, a 1960 Tchekoslovak training plane (Aero L-29 Delfin / Reg: N29VN). Before landing, it made a low fly pass at high speed above the airport!
British with a B777. The reg was G-RAES, which honour the Royal Aeronautical Society. By the way, this plane was also damaged in ground collision at Luanda (Angola)

Now some B767 have wingtips. For me, it's a touch of elegance, and the Austrian livery is beautiful!
From Pakistan, with a stop at London
Aerosvit from Kiev
Lot Polish from Warsaw
View from my bedroom at Carlingview, not too bad :)
