Something about that first shot with the cloud build up that made me stare at that one photo for at least 2 minutes, maybe 3...

They are very nice...at first I thought the first pic was from FSX..provided you dont look at the road/fence

Many times I have looked at real world clouds and thought how much they look like FSX clouds. That is a sign of just how good FSX has got!!

smooth landings

Lovely pics HW, esp like the distant ones at the end of the RWY, and the Dash climbin off the runway towards you. Sweet

Splitpin Hello :re your photo's from what I have seen they all equally as good as any of mine keep them coming it's all good, and also hello to all the other forum members,

Nice again, is that just sticking your lense through the fence?
The shots showing the runway make it look very small lol

Just out of instant, can a fully loaded 738 get out of here?
I remember when I drove to pick my uncle up from hamitlon which landed at some very late time (1.30am) she was fully booked and she really used the whole runway on landing and very hard braking..

I might do some plane spotting here next time I come here on a cross country!

Pilotgallagher hello, re: pointing camera through the fence yes and re: runway size in the photo's I think it either the angle that I have taken them on or the size of the picture posted that makes it look smaller than it actually is - 737 landing wise - know what you mean experienced a landing in an Airbus into hamilton back in 08 they also seemed to land by slamming down hard onto the runway and brake hard - probably the closest you could get to experienceing a carrier landing maybe?, 737 take off wise they seem to generally take up about three quarters of the runway to get off the ground on most take offs - fully loaded wise Not 100% sure. hope that helps and cheers.

HW, I just went back and looked at all the pics you posted....its really good stuff. I like the way you include not just the aircraft , but the back ground as well.....so the aircraft becomes part of the picture (not just a pic of an aircraft).....if you know what i mean (confuse myself sometimes)

The pics i post are really "cartoons" i suppose, all the real work has been done by clever guys like you.
I wouldnt mind "playing" with a couple of your shots....if you dont mind, i can see potential for a little "nip and tuck" here and there

Great stuff.....keep snapping
