The Private Flying Photo Album.......

[BRL]

Time to jump on the bandwagon now.

If you have a picture of your aeroplane or yourself or even pictures taken whilst flying around, anything really, then post the picture/s here.

To do that CLICK HERE (http://www.pprune.org/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=145070) and follow the instructions. Obviously do not send your pictures to the guys named in that thread, you can send any to me and I will host them for you.

Here are a few of mine. This first one is a PA-38, took us to the Sandown fly-in last year with ppruner Cloud69........

Another taken during some brilliant aeros with Paulo.........

Upside down..

http://www.btinternet.com/~paul.evans28/L4.jpg

and pointing straight down! :ooh: :uhoh:

http://www.btinternet.com/~paul.evans28/L11.jpg

I have millions more, let us see yours, approaches to airfields, in-flight, nice sunsets, sunrise, self-portraits etc, anything really, share them with us here please. :)

[dwshimoda]

I know I posted this on another thread - but I love it - is it okay to go here as well? 3,500 feet near Milton Keynes last Sunday:

This was coasting in over Ramsgate from a trip to Belgium:

And finally, approach to the old 04 (now 03) at Cranfield, with a very dirty windshield!

BRL I hate to have to break this to you but that was in 2004!!!! Time flies dunnit!!!

And you only have a couple of weeks to take me up on my night flying offer :confused:

Will post (or send to BRL) some piccies Wednesday cos I am just off to the Land Of Nod and tomorrow is manic.

[DubTrub]

Great plan, BRL, a bit like "Rotorheads around the World" Photo Gallery. (http://www.pprune.org/forums/showthread.php?t=76347)
Might I please reconfirm Heliport's recommendation:
"Size is important! Picture width should not exceed 850 pixels MAXIMUM."
(I would suggest less than that)
Please edit pictures to no more than 72 dpi, since the majority of computer screens only have 72 dots per inch, so anything more is a waste of download time.

Here's me being a hooligan a year or two back:

Hey Dub Trub

Where was the stately home - quite fancy a go at that - but I'm guessing I may be pushing it with a C172?

DW.

[DubTrub]

dwshimoda It was a private residence near Newbury, but the then occupants have since emigrated. I had to watch for the Ha Ha, though!

It wouldn't have suited a 172 (perhaps a Reims Rocket might have been OK)

[Leezyjet]

Wow, the mountain picture is sensational! Is that for real, untouched?


Yep sure is. It was about an hour after sunrise so the haze hadn't yet burnt off in the valleys, also the colour of the scrub/bush was a mixture of violet and green. We were up at fl65 at the time.

Pics were taken by a fellow PPruner (although I cannot remember his PPrune user name :O )

Just a reminder, if you have pictures that are MSN or Yahoo based, they can not be used for linking to images in this software. The picture address is too big.

If you have an image you want to see on the thread let me have it and I will see it is posted here for you.

Send me either a picture or a link to the picture on MSN or Yahoo.

Great Site,

[BRL]

Could you please resize the pictures above down to about 600x480.
The ones above are huge, not good if someone is looking at the page using dial-up etc. I would have a crack at doing it myself but I have no time at all today.

Please, if you are going to post a picture, make sure it is not more than 800x600.

600x480 would be the ideal size for here.

Thank you and keep them coming, they are superb. :ok:

Dunsfold Airfield.


is this the aerodrome used to film Top Gear????

[Leezyjet]

Yes it is.

The green A framed building in the middle is the studio (note: no big TOP GEAR logo on the roof as shown on the opening titles), and the last 2 corners of the track can be seen where the taxiway leaves the runway. Just infront of the red brick building to the left, you can just make out the start/finish line which is the faint white splodge on the ground.

Cheers for the comment Cessnasey - I'll pass it onto my friend when I see him in about an hour. He is also a pilot too, but on these occasions, I was flying and he was happy to shoot pics out of the window as he doesn't usually get chance to when he is flying.

[Leezyjet]

Ask him what camera he has - I want one! :{

It's a Canon 10D (or is it D10 ??) with a 100-400mm lense with image stabilizer. Cost him around £3000 for the whole lot.

You can get them pretty cheap now on ebay, around £300 for the body and £800 for the lense or the new Cannon EOS350D does more or less the same job for much less - brand new they are about £800 IIRC with a 50mm and a 300mm lense although it isn't as good as the 100-400 - you will still get very good results.

Hi Leezyjet and Cessnasey,

I'm the mystery photographer!

The camera I use is a Canon EOS 10D and a 100-400mm lens with Image Stabiliser as Lee said. Spot on with the cost, was about £3000 total. It's an awesome piece of kit - perfect for aerial or air-air photography. (I've got used to flying a C172 with the door off recently - a truly hair raising experience to start with :eek: )

It all works very well especially with the Image Stabiliser attached to a quality camera when you're bouncing around all over the place at low level and you need a steady, sharp shot.

BRL, the mountain picture (http://www.fl400.com/Algoa/pages/IMG_9752.htm) is real - no photoshop effects, just the basic crop, resize, rotate. No funny business. South Africa really is an amazing flying experience. The full album for Leezyjet's and my trip is at: www.FL400.com/Algoa

Pictures from our 3 trips around London are here: http://www.FL400.com/Blackbushe (too many to post on this thread)

Perhaps humour is lost on me, (it nearly always is!) or im just stupid :eek: :p
But i thought that there was only one road bridge, the suspension bridge and the cantilever is the rail bridge??
Perhaps this is one of them times when i should keep my mouth shut?:p

Just interested, as I thought that Biggin was small private jets and smaller airfield only.

[Barcli]

am sure the short runway is the altiport at meribel - they used to sell postcards of it with a dash 7 parked at the top

M14P's a/c was a 319 - sure he wont mind me butting in !!

No, it's Alpe d'Huez. This is Méribel (sorry about the quality):
http://www.fototime.com/53366633BFAC5A4/standard.jpg

The altiport where the Dash 7 used to land is Courchevel.

[GK430]

Full Emergency - it's an A.319CJ

The tail enscription was queried by some when it brought the US Ryder Cup team to B'ham. (I think it has altered since)

[Full Emergency]

Full Emergency - it's an A.319CJ

Thanks.

I wasn't aware that A319 could get in and out of Biggin. I know that they can just about do it at LCY, but a 737 can't.

There was a bit in Skyport recently that they really want to increase the use of Biggin (commerically) in the future, but still need the go ahead from Bromley Council first.

The current Council have told the local residents "no expansion" but money talks.............. I guess we will have to wait and see.

FE

[Barcli]

stand corrected re meribel/courcheval !!
dont know about the A319 performance but when you get a sharp pencil out for the A320 - at light weights you can get the landing distance req down to 1000 mtrs

[treadigraph]

Last year DHL brought a 757 into Biggin for the Air Fair, and some years ago the Project Orbis DC-8 (flying eye hospital) got in and out for the show as well. :ok:

Nice pics everyone.

[M14P]

Hi again all,

Yes that was my old A319CJ. Biggin is absolutely no problem at all (we could depart at MTOW if needed and blast off across the pond) - City is a problem. The runway is plenty long enough but the slope is not possible within certification criteria. Airbus are working on certifying the A318 at City at the moment but I believe that this needs some flap-tweaking.

Hi Barcli - the YellowBird is being repainted (even yellower) at the moment but we should be up and running again shortly.

at light weights you can get the landing distance req down to 1000 mtrs

As you know; you can land anywhere once!

cheers all

Thats not strictly true about that PA28 with the dinked prop. The guys was taxying behind another aircraft, it was just lucky the first aircraft missed the hole. Worst thing is a few days before the incident i had just finished running in new pistons on that aircraft! I hear the hole that it went in to was pretty deep.

Initial size was to permit optifying local South Lanarkshire features.

Just discovered this thread

OK the link works, why doesn't the pic come up?

link was too long.
EDITED in PUZZLEMENT
When you say 'link was too long' can you explain to an oldie what you mean?
I followed big red L's instructions to the letter: even got myself a sub. to Photobucket: They gave me the link.
Shirley if I shorten it it won't be my picture you see?.

Nah: didn't work- back to the drawing board.

[IO540]

Out of interest, why can't one post pictures on this site directly? One can do it on all the other off the shelf "www-BBS" implementations.

One could even limit picture upload rights to people who have paid up :)

[TheKentishFledgling]

The pictures on this thread alone must be a few hundred megs, think how the servers would rapidly fill up if people uploaded pics :eek:

[Barshifter]

TheKentishFledgling

I quite agree.Even one of my scaled down photos(in another thread on

Rotorheads) was trimmed down by Mr Heliport!

Cheers

Barshifter

[IO540]

The server upload function would trim the pics to say 640x480. That would reduce a good quality jpeg to under 100k.

This is standard practice - look at Ebay for example.

I clicked on the link in your post, there is a 'pic name' to the left of the picture size undereath the picture.

I clicked on that and a new picture opened up. I right clicked on that and copied the image properties and used that as it is shorter. :confused: :)

[JHM]

Passengers on a small commuter plane are waiting for the flight to leave. They're getting a little impatient, but the airport staff has assured them that the pilots will be there soon, and the flight can take off immediately after that. The entrance opens, and two men walk up the aisle, dressed in pilots' uniforms-both are wearing dark glasses, one is using a seeing-eye dog, and the other is tapping his way up the aisle with a cane. Nervous laughter spreads through the cabin; but the men enter the cockpit, the door closes, and the engines start up. The passengers begin glancing nervously around, searching for some sign that this is just a little practical joke. None is forthcoming.

The plane moves faster and faster down the runway, and people at the windows realize that they're headed straight for the water at the edge of the airport territory. As it begins to look as though the plane will never take off, that it will plough into the water, panicked screams fill the cabin-but at that moment, the plane lifts smoothly into the air.

The passengers relax and laugh a little sheepishly, and soon they have all retreated into their magazines, secure in the knowledge that the plane is in good hands.

Up in the cockpit, the co-pilot turns to the pilot and says, "You know, Bob, one of these days, they're going to scream too late, and we're all gonna die."

[BRL]

Pathos???????????

[Kyprianos Biris]

From my trip yesterday, anyone guess the airport?

A little clue below?

EI

Athens Venizelos LGAV runway 03L !

Landed there end of August returning from Istanbul LTFJ and paid the 239 Euros for a day's parking & handling fees :eek: (since we arrived night IFR and day VFR only Megara LGMG GA field closes at 1900L :uhoh: )

It was interesting taxying at night from the westerly rwy all the way to the GA parking at NE side in a "little" GA aircraft in midst of all the commercial traffic via the wide (for a GA pilot) taxiways.

[Egnatia Instructor]

Athens Venizelos it was, first time i've ever done an approach with another aircraft landing along side me, worth the trip just for that!

EI:ok:

[London Mil]

Pathos???????????

Is that near Paphos? :ouch:

[eyeinthesky]

BGFC:

Some great photos. the 'Airship hangars' one looks to me like Cardington near Bedford. Unless you have a long lens, I would guess that you were either:

Below 6000ft and thus inside the D206 danger area which is active H24, or:

Inside the the airway N57 base FL55..

Any comment?

[BRL]

Is that near Paphos? :ouch:

Ok ok, I was tired, there was a fire here, a flood, an earthquake!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[HGFC1]

Eyeinthesky (you aren't Police40 are you?) I can understand your concern but I wasn't flying, I was sitting in the back minding my own business and taking photos. From what I remember however, we were at about 2,000' on the 100deg radial from DTY which passes outside the Danger Area.
Thanks for the compliment on the photos, I'm delighted with the camera which is an Olympus C300 Zoom and seems to give me some brilliant photos like this sunset at Halfpenny Green:
