CS-TPG Besides 'Cheers' from cockpit crew, take a look at surprised passenger looking us! On that afternoon, all aircraft vacated via Alpha, a barely used taxyway at LPPR...why? Just for us, courtesy of ATC tower, because it was APEA's (PAEA in English, for Portuguese Aviation Enthusiasts' Association) winter appron visit day. (mehr von CS-TPG)
CS-TPL ATC: "AIR PORTUGAL SEVEN-ONE-SEVEN align behind IBERIA...". A340-300 EC-GOK preparing for take-off and we have to wait in order to avoid it's wake turbulence. Many thanks to this AMAZING crew. EOS 400D & Canon 18-55@18. (mehr von CS-TPL)
CS-TPE What an amazing take-off! The Captain made this show of performance of the Fokker100 just for us during an appron tour. Used few meters of runway, when airborne started banking hard to the left, and already retracting the gear. (mehr von CS-TPE)
