Hi again guys,
Right now weather as well as traffic over here is terrible for spotting, so I thought it'd be nice to share some pics from Samedan, Switzerland ( SMV / LSZS ), which is Europe's highest commercial airport, located at 5600ft!
Each winter rich and famous come here to either do some skiing or just spend money....it's basically our Aspen! :mrgreen:
My last two visits were in November and December 07, hope you like!
Btw, to illustrate how cold this place is.... here's a NetJets Citation 550 with ice crystals all over. Close to - (minus!) 10 degrees F in the morning!!! :borat:

NetJets Falcon 2000

NetJets really owns that place in winter with dozends of flights a day usually. They sometimes even bring the BBJ in here... very impressive!
Czech ERJ Legacy (OK-SLN)

N239AX, Falcon 900, owned by Aspen Executive Services. They arrived non-stop from IAD and departed to Abu Dhabi only half an hr later after refuelling...talk about climate changes!

Gulf V (VP-CBX) brought in Prince Albert of Monaco, even though he usually owns a Falcon 2000 3A-MGA :?

Private CRJ-100 a.k.a. Challenger 850 (HB-IDJ).

Private Beech 1900D, don't know the reg anymore, sry.

ATR-42 (OY-CIU) wingview....somehow artistic (i guess :roll: )

Another limo shot, this time on the snow apron. Cessna Citation 560XL (G-WINA)
http://www.floriantrojer.com/gallery/bilder/limo.jpg
And because we're just at bizjets....here's one recent pic from Innsbruck I'd like to share!
Private BAe 146, owned by F1 tycoon Bernie Ecclestone. Callsign was "Formula" and flt number was "one", so very appropriate too :borat:
