At one point, I even had an NCPD cruiser roll up and ask if I was getting anything good. He wished me well and was on his way. Nice to see they are pro-hobby now.

Anyways, here are the highlights...

I was surprised to see a Kalitta Charters 727 on Plane Finder, as soon as I saw her I quickly headed out to the field as she made her final approach for 13L. Most of the shots were taken from the back yard except for the Kalitta, Korean Cargo, and Singapore, oh yeah the Iberia too!

This is probably some of the last nice light to be had before the humid skies of summer kick in.

Yesterday I went to Düsseldorf for some plane shooting. Had a very enjoyable day with some nice catches. Here is a selection:

1. The obligatory line-up shot...

B738-ABB-DABBG-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

2. CSA is leasing this ATR-72 from Air Corsica;

ATR72-CSA-FRGPK-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

3. Just because it looks nice...

A321-ABB-DABCC-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

4. The Polizei is always good for some action shots:

BK117-POL-DHNWQ-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

5. Lots of Turkish airlines this day, like this B737-400 of Tailwind:

B734-TWI-TCTLC-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

6. Nice little Embraer bizzer:

E505-PVT-DCHLR-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

7. One of the highlights of today; American new colors. I think I like them:

B763-AAL-N369AA-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

8. Onur Air celebrating 20 years on this A320:

A320-OHY-TCOBD-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

9. Extra long B737 of Sky:

B739-SKY-TCSKP-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

10. Iberia stopped flying to Amsterdam, but you can still see them at DUS, like with this CRJ-200:

CRJ2-IBE-ECIDC-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

11. Air Malta also has a new livery. In my opinion a very nice new image:

A320-AMC-9HAEQ-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

12. Coming to Amsterdam starting next week is Etihad!

A333-ETI-A6AFB-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

13. Oneworld logojet of Finnair, together with sister E190 of Niki:

E190-FIN-OHLKN-DUS10may13-2 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

14. Nice little Portuguese Citation:

CE550-PVT-CSDHB-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

15. The second highlight for me; Russian Legacy!

E135-PVT-RA02858-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

16. Not very special, this Pegasus B737-800, but I do like these flaring pictures:

B738-PGT-TCCPC-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

17. Reminding me of a swan; A340-300 of Lufthansa:

A343-DLH-DAIGW-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

18. Flying banana!

B738-TUI-DAHFT-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

19. A common visitor to Düsseldorf, but still nice; Mahan Air A310:

A313-MAH-EPMNO-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

20. Close-up of one of Niki's E190's:

E190-NIK-OEIHB-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

21. Special stickers are applied on this A330-200 of Air Berlin for the new Berlin Airport which will be opened someday...
A332-ABB-DALPI-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

22. I missed the Sun Express Istanbul Flyer as I needed to go to the bathroom, but I did managed to catch this Globally Yours B737-800 of Turkish Airlines:

B738-THY-TCJHL-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

23. A rather white Nouvelair A320:

A320-NOU-TSINA-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

24. It remains one of the nicer special liveries in my opinion; Wir lieben fliegen B757-300 of Condor:

B753-CON-DABON-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

25. Air Berlin is using this former OLT Express A319. I think they should keep this livery, much more modern looking than their own logo:

A319-ABB-DABGS-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

26. German Sun Express:

B738-SUN-DASXD-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

27. The new Hamburg Airways has a boring livery on this A320:

A320-HAM-DAHHD-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

28. I didn't manage to capture this one at Zurich earlier this year, so I'm happy with this A320 of Belle Air:

A320-BEL-FORAE-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

29. I don't have that many Finnish bizzers in my collection, so Challenger OH-WIC was very welcome:

CL6-PVT-OHWIC-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

30. And the day ended with this very nice Air China A330-300:

A333-CCA-B5916-DUS10may13 by LifelinerOne, on Flickr

Hope you liked them!

Making the U-turn for final approach into JFK.








I waited, and waited but finally someone went near the moon.






Occasionally you get one with gear down, not bad considering they are still over NJ.
