Hi,
Landed at 5am on CX845 and my connection was not till 20:00. Plan was to hit the famous Sha Lo Wan island off 07R for some morning spotting....tons of cargo action in just 2 hours!

This was my ride to the island!! I could have not done this without Ed & Sneeze's help, many thanks!
(was told that last year one of these turned over in bit choppy seas!)

I could have spent whole night taking pics, except had to catch my 20:00 connection to WSSS, was able to get only few night shots as I made my way to the gate...

November Lima is 17 years old and after new RR engines, this first production TRIPLE is still solid workhorse for the airline...
