Remarks: This twice a week "baby-bus" gets ready to go to Shanghai via Chengdu. Bangalore is a great place to spot the A319 with Air India having extensive services. Even Kingfisher which used to operate majority A321 services has brought back a few A319 services.
Remarks: A well lit departure for Bangkok. Night dew is the bane of aviation at Bangalore, and within the two hours this plane is already looking dappled. The dew even looks like grains in the photo. The flip side is that each beam of light from the rear stabilisers and the wing becomes visible.
Remarks: The freighter is tied down with more than 20 tons of weights on the nose gear in the foggy night at Bangalore. In the morning she will leave for Paris via Mumbai. 1600px. What is the small window on the nose? Camera ?
Remarks: First photo on JP of this latest addition to the IndiGo fleet. She was delivered just a week back. Her glossy paint reflecting the lights so brightly the even preserve the star-burst on the tail fin and engine nacelle. Taken at night at 1600px.
Remarks: Found the AirAsia ground crew very unsupportive of plane spotting. Had to hide and quickly shoot this special Team Lotus livery aircraft while walking to board my own flight.
Remarks: In the middle of the day, in the full heat, trailing wisps of flap tip vortex. Must be that 99% humidity that Mumbai is famous for in the monsoon season.
