I've never spotted by the 31's.
I've only been by the mounds last year.... with my old lens.

No the 22's, 31s would be WNW

Wow, sunrise today would have been the play. They were arriving on the 31s and the sun was perfect. 59 degrees and no haze. Hope someone got out. Can't beat this light.

I'm at Bayswater now and its beautiful outside...they are still on the 4s...although last time I looked at the weather the wind was forecast to switch on a couple of hours...

Ok, all of my pics turned out hideously grainy and a lot of them have chromatic aberration. I think I've learned my lesson about shooting in the middle of the day :)

anyone going out today?
Bill

Going to Cargo Plaza now.

Stayed long enough for a few shots and had 1 keeper. I didn't stay too long as I got frustrated by the dust spots on my sensor (trip to Nikon tomorrow) and also, I got hungry (I'm fat, yes I know).

I didn't see anybody at Cargo or at the Mounds today. Looks like they stopped using 13L for arrivals around 6pm or so.

I Arrived at Cargo Plaza around 5:12pm and I got out of my car in less then a second to capture the Qantas 747-400 coming in and others:

They stopped using 13L for landings around 5:30pm as Phil said so I headed to Howard Beach for 31L KK departures.
