Pictaero's Screeners' Choice - Monday February 11th 2008

Published on 02-12-2008 by Curufinwe in Screeners' choices | Permanent link | 0 comment(s)

My article comes a little late this week. The reason for this delay is rather simple: a lot of work "In Real Life". So, here is our choice; no need for long talk!

First flight for Kingfisher's first A340-500.
A340-500 - F-WWTG A340-500 - F-WWTG

Then, A320 and 737:
A320-200 - EC-JIB 737-400 - CN-RMX

... the rest of our choice: A330, Il-96, and military aircraft!
A330-200 - F-WWKR Il-96-300 - RA-96014
SA-330B Puma - 1316 CN-235 MPA - 62-IL

Finally, many thanks to Erwan for his beautiful photograph ...
ERJ-145 - F-GRGD

That's it! So, see you on next Monday for our weekly Screeners' Choice.

Many thanks to you all for your photos. Another good week once more! Our choice is just like what you have sent us; that is to say, very diversified!
So, we shall then start with balloons, which are not very common on Pictaero, and not common in general as a whole ...
Cameron N-105 - N4460C Aerophile 5500 - F-GPRI

I do not know why, but we have chosen quite a lot of Triple Sevens' pictures ...
777-200/ER - HZ-AKI 777-200/ER - F-GSPM 777-300/ER - F-GSQN

... as well as many A330s' photos!!! Worth noticing is Marc-A Veillard's awesome picture of a Swiss A330 landing on a misty morning!
A330-200 - F-WWKN A330-200 - HB-IQG A330-200 - A7-ACC

Last, but not least, all that is left; un A380, a Stratotanker and a CRJ wing in front of a beautiful sunset ...
A380-800 - F-WWSK CRJ-700 - D-ACPA C-135FR Stratotanker - 93-CL

Great choice! Thanks to all our members who do their best to share their pictures with a large number of people. So, see you on next Monday for our weekly Screeners' Choice.

Fruitful week for Pictaero! More than 3,000 photos are now online. It is a great achievement for us and we would like to thank you all for that!
Enough self-congratulating, we'd better have a look at the pictures! We have chosen a lot of different aircraft (unlike last week!!). I do hope you will like our choice!

So, before we really start, I would like to thank Alain Michot for the ATR 42 prototype he sent us.
ATR-42-200 - F-WEGA

Then, more classical aircraft: A330s and an A380 taken during her first flight!
A330-200 - F-HBIL A380-800 - F-WWSK A330-300 - B-LAG

I ought to let the pictures speak for themselves now: A French Super Frelon, a beautifully painted 737's tail, an old Australian DC-3 and a Brazil Government Embraer.
SA-321G - 160 737-800 - D-AHFX
Douglas DC-3 - VH-ANR VC-99C - 2580

Now, I shall post another article next Monday for our weekly Screeners' Choice, but I hope posting very soon for our 5,000th and even for our 10,000th picture online! Many thanks!

Pictaero's Screeners' Choice - Monday January 21st 2008

Hi everybody!
What a weekend! Before we start, I would like to thank all my family for the perfect weekend they offered me (it was my birthday)! I now have a new camera (a Sony Alpha 700) and I hope taking many more shots for Pictaero.
So, still under shock, I'd better let you view the pictures that the team has chosen for you. I suppose you don't need any explanation. You are all grown-ups! wink
There is quite a bit of everything this week ... if you like airliners. There is nothing else: no fighter, no light aircraft, etc ... Whatever! laughing

Single-aisles:
A320-200 - F-WWDQ A320-200 - EC-JIB A320-200 - F-HBAD
737-300 - LN-KKX ATR-72-500 - F-GRPZ

"Russian" planes:
An12BP Cub - UR-DWF Tu-154M - RA-85831

The "Big Ones":
A380-800 - F-WWEA 747-400F - LX-TCV

That's all! I have to admit that the A320 with Frontier Airlines' colours is my favourite! Sorry for disturbing ... see you on Monday then for our weekly Screeners' Choice!

We are now back to our cruise speed! This week's choice is still mainly made of airliners, although they are very different!
Let's change a little and start with the largest airplanes and end with the tiniest!
So, first of all, the largest: the A380; first an Airbus prototype and then, an airframe for Emirates!
A380-800 - F-WWEA A380-800 - F-WWCK

Next coming in are an A340 and an A330. The A340 belongs to Air France and the A330 to US Airways.
A340-300 - F-GLZL A330-300 - N670UW

Smaller now with the single aisles from both Airbus and Boeing; an easyJet A320 and a Primera Air 737.
A319-100 - G-EZAE 737-800 - TF-JXD

Getting even smaller! I suggest you take a look at a Saab 2000 flightdeck and an ATR-42 for an African airline.
Saab 2000 - HB-IZH ATR-42-300 - F-WQCT

Eventually, the tiniest of all ... but what a view! A Piper J-3 Cub sliding on the snow ...
Piper J-3 Cub - F-PERB

That is all for this week. We hope receiving more and more photos from you all! So, see you on Monday 21st for our weekly Screeners' Choice!
