Almost missed out on getting these shots, as I did not know that a Fokker F50 was due in to Santa Marta airport in northern Colombia. I managed to get the camera out fairly quickly, so still managed to fire off a few shots. 31 degrees and humid, so not a day to hang around in the hot sun!!







beats an Airbus any day!!

smooth landings.

Nice photos, I flew on one of those in Zimbabwe. Was actually my first experience flying on an aeroplane with propellers - very exciting for my 8 year old self at the time!
