Lisbon-Portugal LIS-LPPT

All the embedded videos made the thread kinda slow for my browser to open, but cool stuff. Maybe better to just copy the links.

I liked the TACV and SATA because those are pretty exotic to us. Nice catch on the Biman as well. If you get an SLR camera with a telephoto it will allow you to zoom in closer, this way the planes fill the frame more.

Is TAAG Angola using their own aircraft now to LIS?

rgds,

Hi, good afternoon.
Thank you for your words, my machine is this, excuse the poor quality http://www.sony.pt/product/dsc-w-series/dsc-w380
TAAG flies to Lisbon with its B772 with 1 flight daily and other days you have 2 daily.

Best regards

Hi again Carlos, nothing to excuse! Photography is about fun. Art doesn't have to aim at perfection. For aircraft images however, I wish I had a better camera back when I started taking pix of planes (had a very crappy film camera). 14 mega pixels is pretty good for a point and shoot camera!

The first camera I bought was not exactly adequate, but for still and panning shots it did the job ok. It was a Vivitar film camera with a 110mm zoom. The zoom is very important feature to get aircraft shots, even more than high # of mega pixels.

Good that you guys got TAAG back. That's a gorgeous aircraft.

Does that EuroAtlantic Tri-Star ever move these days? I saw it in the background of a couple of your vids...

Thanks,
Tom

This L-1011 is stopped at Lisbon airport and there are many long time.
O their end of life will be close, damage is often and its maintenance is very expensive.

15 January with the company of Carlos and the great rain.

Excelente!

I see the Air France retro A320 on the back, beautiful.

I thought the Euro Atlantic L1011 received the bigger new titles. I thought it was a sign it would be operated for some more time?

I thought a short time ago the Euro Atlantic L1011 received the bigger new titles. I thought it was a sign it would still be operated?

Thanks Carlos.. After not seeing the EuroAtlantic documented going anyplace for well over a year (or two) we figured this one was finished, but then it turned up at JFK in 2008 flying for Aer Lingus, so I figured it didn't just get pulled out for only one or a handful of flights, but maybe so.... I guess the Luz Air (sp?) is history as well?

Thanks,
Tom

Interesting how those TAP A332s don't look as awful from the side in the Gummi Bears scheme:

But boy, those A320s sure look like buses with wings on that same livery!
