Great stuff Jason, nice collection of pics, and aircraft. Good to see the metroliners, didnt know Toll operated them.
Oh, and what's your secret, ie finding a missus who's patient enough to wait for you to take aircraft photos, let alone go along with you laugh.gif

you hardly see any 747's these days, i love photoing those birds, lots of smoke!!! don't see the 380s either, i rekon that would put the 747 to shame for tire smoke!!!

It'll be engine smoke and electrical smoke, with a little tyre smoke in there too.

the times I've seen the Emirates A380 touch down it doesn't seem to smoke that much on contact with the runway - seems to gracefully touch down and roll out..



Awesome Photo's Justheace Thanks for posting them all cool.gif
