A nice evening scenery as we were leaving Frankfurt.

As the photos suggests I did a trip to Frankfurt recently, not much aviation photography there, but maybe few shots later. There also was a open day at Lapland Air Command on last week and I was there. Midnight Hawks did a fabulous show and Hornet solo performance was good as always. Expect photos on that one as I get them all edited.

Finnair B757-200 from Las Palmas, Finnair A330-300 from Malaga and Arkia B757-300 from Ovda, Israel. Air Baltic B737 was on a normal scheduled flight but all others were diverts because Helsinki airport had to be closed due to the volcanic ash. Out of the photo there’s also a Finnair A330-300 from Bangkok.

Sun is low, there’s lot’s of snow to reflect the light etc. Anyway, here are few shots from February and March 2010.
