Montreal-YUL 11/11-11/12 Pic Review + A380

**Iberia A340-600** · 2007-11-12, 10:53 PM

After seeing the A380 at BDL a couple of weeks ago in unfortunate weather I decided that it would be fun to drive up to YUL and try and catch it. Having spotted in YUL for two days in early September I became very familiar with the airport and loved it.

This time around I tried spotting runway 24L and was quite pleased with the rotation shots you can get from there. I also finally got the Air Canada 777-300ER and some 737-200 action!

Here are the pics:

11/11

11/12 (Weather started off very cloudy but the A380 brought clear skies :borat:)

Look whose coming!

And of course Mr. Bond:

Excellent photos Gordon! Great trip, and worth driving 12 hours for the 30 seconds

I will post the big one now, but get to editing the rest later.

Great shots! There are some good catches in there besides the A380...you don't see many old-school 737s anymore. And SunWing is growing on me :)

Amazing shots Gordon...love the UAL Express ERJ!

Thumbs up - high quality pics! :borat:

OK, Here are a few more shots. This is still a new camera, so the edits are not great...yet

Hope you enjoy.

The next day...

Just the night before I was talking with Gordon about how I wll never see this plane. Haha

Thanks, and i could really use some feedback.
