Was in the garden Sunday playing with the DA* 60-250, saw a plane go over and wondered how well it would reach, the following shot is a 1:1 crop, but when I saw the name of the airline, I just couldn't stop laughing!
Quick google shows it's a Hungarian airline, and they do Wizz Cars & Wizz Hotels too!

Wizz run cheap flights between Liverpool John Lennon and Poland. I think it's about £50 Return. Most of the Polish people living in the Liverpool / Manchester area use it.

Nice shot.... how they don't crash into one another at Barton is a mystery to me
Do they allow spectators in or where you outside?

They have a clubhouse that does drinks and meals. I go there quite often with my little lads as they are really into aircraft like me. They have like a garden/seating area outside where they have barbecues and the like. The fences are only 3.5ft high so you can always get a good shot.
if its a weekend and a sunny day its packed and lots and lots of aircraft movemement!

I much prefer the inside of planes, outwardbound ones especially
Cant really say much that hasn't already been said about the pic, except I would crop off that clump of lighter coloured grass in the foreground, I didn't see it first time around but now I know its there my eyes keep wandering to it

I was there when the plane landed with hydraulic failure. Was standing by the telescope. Having a chat to 2 chaps about how nice it is to have a viwing park without all the over policing. Were you one of them?Nice shot cloudhunter, I notice you took that shot at 19-43, heres one I took on the same day at 15-04 when it made an emergency landing with hydrolic trouble.
